"Pat's dedication to this community and its citizens is limitless. She brings years of experience in business and leadership to the job. She does her homework and maintains an open mind. Pat's skills are essential to our City and its government."
Janet Kurvers, Cotati Vice Mayor

"There are few people in government willing to ask the tough or unpopular questions. Once asked, fewer are willing to roll up their sleeves and develop solutions and improvements. As concerned citizens we must embrace these select few, as they are true leaders with a vision for our future. I have worked with Pat Gilardi on numerous City and community projects. She asks the tough questions and produces solutions and improvements. Pat is a true leader with a vision for Cotati."
Dan Dutra, Cotati Planning Commissioner

"I support Pat because she's proven to be nobody's patsy and nobody's fool. Pat has consistently shown the level of detail oriented, critical thinking needed to effectively run the day to day business of Cotati. Whether we agree on every issue or not, I implicitly trust Pat Gilardi to always give 110% towards finding solutions to our current and future problems and to consider the views of every Cotati citizen."
Joan Simon, Cotati citizen

"Pat's exemplary leadership and dedication to youth, community affairs, service, and youth organizations will help continue to shape Cotati's future. She is committed and places great importance and value on the inclusion of all when making decisions that will keep Cotati a viable community where all can live, work and play."
Karyn Pulley, Community Leader
