Andy HuangCandidate Statement of Andy Huang
Cupertino City Council
Occupation: Entrepreneur
My wife, Isabel, and I settled in Cupertino in 2001,
attracted by outstanding schools, safe neighborhoods, and small
city charm. Over the years, we found Cupertino to be the
perfect city to raise our children, Grace and Andres, instilling
our family with a strong sense of community.
Isabel volunteered with the PTA, Block Leader, and the
Community Emergency Response Team; while I served with
Cupertino Citizen Corps, American Red Cross, and was
appointed to the Public Safety Commission in 2010 - Chair in
2012/2014.
With the expected significant growth in business and new
housing, it is important to manage change to maintain our
quality of life. We need to improve traffic flow and road
infrastructure, increase public safety resources, and keep our
neighborhoods healthy in air /land /water.
Additionally, we need to support schools by retaining
the best teachers while keeping the library open every day,
ensure a greener environment by inspiring residents to
walk/bike /carpool, and encourage disaster preparedness
through education and city's alert services.
I have led multiple community events in collaboration
with businesses, churches, schools, boy /girl scouts, and
government. I am committed to serve and keep Cupertino a
safe place to enjoy, work, and live.
