​

Cynthia’s campaign for El Paso City Council - District 4 focuses on three key areas: 

​

Strong Leadership to Drive Economic Development:

Cynthia is dedicated to providing strong leadership to advance the development and well-being of District 4 in the Northeast and the El Paso community. "Advocating and representing El Paso well is key to attracting advanced industries that provide sustainable employment and elevate our quality of life." 

​

Community-Driven Solutions:

She emphasizes the need for leadership that listens to the community’s input. "I am committed to attracting a diverse range of businesses to Northeast El Paso and involving the community to identify the services needed, including a hospital to support the needs of our growing population.  This is essential to growing our tax base and reducing the tax burden for city residents.”

 

Public Safety and Improved Public Spaces:

Cynthia will make public safety a priority and support resources to preserve El Paso’s safe city status. “I will prioritize initiating strategies and programs to attract and retain sufficient law enforcement and fire professionals to serve our community and keep it safe.” She will advocate for improved streets and public spaces, including parks and neighborhood facilities such as aquatic centers and libraries. “As Northeast El Paso continues to grow, it is necessary to have leadership that understands the importance of well-maintained and accessible public spaces. These spaces provide recreational opportunities, improve community engagement, and enhance our quality of life.”​
