-
Delivering City Services (public safety, traffic reduction plus street maintenance, libraries and parks), Setting Land Use, Development and Growth Policies that Enhance and Preserve Neighborhoods, and Making Public Input a Priority.
- Preserving San Jose's Environment

Kris's extensive involvement and advocacy relating to the environment make her the top choice for voters concerned about our environmental quality of life.
- Opposition to the CalTrain Maintenance Yard
-
Kris led the battle against placing this 24-hour Maintenance Yard adjacent to residential neighborhoods, "Kris was the only candidate that gave us genuine support to fight the train yard," say Garden Alameda residents Vince and Suzanne Sumang. "She was at every meeting, she answered our questions and pulled information from the right sources to help us."
