YIMBY Action✓ EndorsesAbout David Bell
I am David Bell, and I am running for Corte Madera Town Council.
I am running to help keep Corte Madera safe, clean, resilient, and well-managed—with practical attention to the infrastructure, emergency readiness, and community services residents rely on every day.
My career has been rooted in civil and environmental work, most recently as an Environmental Engineer with the U.S. Air Force Civil Engineer Center, Legislative and Regulatory Engagement Division. For more than 20 years, I worked with California environmental laws and regulations that affect public safety, infrastructure, and responsible community planning. I also hold multiple engineering degrees, including a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from UCLA.
That experience gives me a practical, engineering-based perspective on the challenges Corte Madera faces—from flood protection and climate adaptation to the long-term maintenance of essential public systems.
