The Community Behind Michelle
I feel honored to have the support of so many in the San Luis Obispo and surrounding communities. You too can join our campaign so we can work together for a stronger SLO.
"Michelle knows what it takes to be an effective SLO City Council member. She shows up, listens to all perspectives and asks hard questions. Michelle came to SLO to attend Cal Poly and fell in love with the community. She was able to make a home here, raise her family and wants to make this community even more accessible for all. I strongly endorse her for a second term."
"As a council member, former planning commissioner, and 20-year public health manager, Michelle has a track record of helping SLO make progress toward its goals by making our roads safer, building affordable housing, expanding access to childcare, and fostering stronger partnerships throughout the region."
"Michelle is a strong and dedicated advocate for the people of San Luis Obispo City. Over our decade-long relationship I’ve seen her steer our communities through COVID, stand up for equitable health care access, fight for affordability, and always listen to the people she serves. Michelle leads with compassion, integrity and a focus on real solutions -- I'm proud to support her for City Council."
"Michelle is an essential part of our County Public Health team as well as being a trusted city partner. Her deep knowledge of local government, her commitment to fact-based policy making and her remarkable ability to communicate with community members are invaluable skills that make her a key leader on the SLO City Council."
"Michelle works hard and listens well. She brings people together with pragmatic solutions that work for our community."
"I've known Michelle over 25 years and I've seen her dedication to issues that are crucial to the quality of life in SLO. In her time on Council she’s worked to increase affordable safe housing opportunities, create walkable neighborhoods, and partner with the County to reduce homelessness. She's expanded the city's open space, while also tackling ongoing challenges such as budget and water security. We each get one vote this November. My vote will go to Michelle Shoresman."
"Michelle Shoresman has shown to be an outstanding San Luis Obispo City Council member. Her leadership and management skills have assisted her in serving with dedication and caring the community in which she lives. Michelle wants the City of San Luis Obispo to be at its best always and is constantly actively engaged in doing so. I wholeheartedly endorse Michelle Shoresman for San Luis Obispo City Council. "
"Michelle excels at the art of good governance. She knows how to transform mind-numbing but important duties, like “infrastructure planning,” into results that actually improve people’s lives. For example, by making walking, biking and public transportation options safer and easier for those who need them."
"I hereby endorse Michelle Shoresman for SLO City Council. Michelle is well reasoned, kind and willing to take on challenges for the betterment of our community. She works hard and is selfless in her attitude towards others. I wholeheartedly endorse her for SLO City Council."
"I have known Michelle for several years and have been impressed time and again with her knowledge, dedication and enthusiastic work ethic. I believe that she will continue to make a positive addition to the SLO City Council"
"Michelle has an insatiable appetite for knowledge. Whatever the topic, SLO residents can feel confident that Michelle has done the research and outreach required to cast an informed, measured vote."
"Michelle Shoresman is the epitome of what we should all look for in an elected official. Wise in her assessment of issues important to the SLO community, a volunteer extraordinaire and an approachable woman who will both lead and listen. We are all fortunate that she would choose to serve in public office for another term."
"At a time when politics has become polarized and irrational, Michelle is a voice of reason."
"I am a proud supporter of Michelle Shoresman for San Luis Obispo City Council. For these last four years, Michelle has been very active and present on the council — not only attending the meetings, but being prepared and asking important questions. Michelle also welcomes the public’s input and is very interested in and takes into consideration what people have to say. She is also a proponent of those things that make our fair city thrive — from supporting the housing of homeless individuals, to new housing that meets the needs of residents while preserving the character of San Luis Obispo. I also appreciate her support of the City’s greenbelt, and for programs that support students, families, and seniors. I am grateful for Michelle’s leadership and she has my vote!"
"Michelle is a reliable, knowledgeable, caring and accomplished leader. She is well-versed on the issues of San Luis Obispo, actively engaged with the community, and dedicated to public service. Michelle's attention to details, ability to see the big picture, experience, and well-demonstrated competency make her a perfect candidate to continue to serve on SLO City Council!"
"I am hard pressed to think of someone more dedicated to serving SLO than Michelle Shoresman. She worked tirelessly for our county during the Covid pandemic and has served in countless local organizations. I was extremely pleased when the city council showed its confidence in Michelle by appointing her to the council, and now I hope the voters will show that same confidence."
"I endorse Michelle Shoresman for SLO City Council. Michelle is passionate, kind and thoughtful about her service to our community. With Michelle’s work ethic and wisdom the City of SLO will be in great hands."
"Michelle Shoresman has my full support for SLO City Council. She is thoughtful, compassionate, and deeply committed to the people she serves. Michelle brings the kind of integrity and steady leadership San Luis Obispo needs."
"I’m delighted to support Michelle Shoresman for reelection to San Luis Obispo City council. When we served together on council, I saw first-hand her great intelligence, attention to detail and commitment to service. Her discussions and deliberations are thoughtful and grounded. She is an independent thinker and a true collaborator, and we are fortunate to have her voice in our community."
