Kimberly White
Candidate for City Council (At-Large), El Cerrito · Executive Advisor
Kimberly White serves on El Cerrito's Financial Advisory Board, which reviews the city's annual budget, long-term financial plan, and investment policies. She was a leader of the successful 2026 campaign against Measure C, a city library tax rejected by voters, and announced her City Council campaign alongside fellow campaign leader Wally Nowinski.
Positions in brief
Running with Wally Nowinski on a shared platform that emphasizes listening to residents before decisions are made, investing in quality-of-life priorities like parks and public safety, and fiscal responsibility.
White and Nowinski's shared platform calls for a city government that engages residents before decisions are made rather than after, prioritizes investments in parks, senior services, and public safety, works to revitalize commercial districts to attract new businesses, and practices fiscal responsibility by funding basic services before other spending. They point to the defeat of Measure C as evidence that El Cerrito residents want a city government that listens.
