Joe Patterson understands the challenges families are facing as he works to raise his own four children in our local public schools. That's what propelled Joe to get involved in public service in the first place and eventually compelled him to run for the City Council. While on the council, Joe championed causes such as fiscal responsibility and making the community safer. Joe eventually was elevated to the position of Mayor in 2019.
Joe Patterson's top priorities have always been to make our community a better place to live, work and raise a family. That's why in 2022 the voters of the 5th Assembly District elected Joe Patterson to represent them and reelected him in 2024 by an overwhelming margin.
