Pacifica City Council District 2: Christine Boles

Sustainably building a climate-resilient future has been a priority for Christine Boles both as a small business owner and an elected official. Her architecture firm designed the first net-zero home in Pacifica, and she places environmental stewardship and climate change mitigation atop her agenda in her city council reelection campaign. Christine recognizes that Pacifica faces many of the same challenges as cities across the Bay Area — affordability, creating a more sustainable economy, and budget constraints exacerbated by federal cuts chief among them — and recognizes the need to meet these challenges with an approach befitting a coastal community particularly susceptible to the effects of climate change.
