FOR THE OFFICE OF CITY COUNCIL NAME: BILL WIDMER 

Occupation: Incumbent, Business Executive

 I am honored to have been your Councilman over the past 16 years. From day one, I have remained focused on keeping our homes and streets safe and Town finances positive without new taxes. I ensured the development of our new City Hall and Library was affordable. I strived to maintain Atherton ‘s look and feel by working to mitigate over-meddling of local zoning by the Legislature.  I vow to maintain a budget surplus while continuously improving our services and making investments in our Police Department, Park, streets and bikeways. 

I will continue to push for better engagement with the public and continue strong fiscal management while ensuring safety for all residents.  Using my 35-years as a senior executive at Fortune 50 corporations, Professorship at Menlo College and 18 years serving the Town, I will keep Atherton a great place to live. 
I have also served on the  Finance, Environmental, Technology, Transportation/Bike/Ped Committees,  Disaster Management Committee and Park Foundation. 

I will always listen to you and I am always available.  I will continue to represent the Town professionally and with integrity. 

I have raised my family here for 30 years. I have a BS and MBA from TCU.
