Candidate Statement of Qualifications
I, JUDY J. HUNT, hereby declare that I am a candidate for an elective office in the City of Berkeley, and make the following statement:
1. That my name is Judy J. Hunt
2. The office for which I am a candidate is Rent Stabilization Board Commissioner

9. As a resident of West Berkeley, I see the impact of a community undergoing various changes. Aging adults, both tenants and property owners, choose to stay in their residences for as long as they can remain independent. Our elders need housing stability in their retirement years. Having served as a Commissioner on the Alameda County Advisory Commission of Aging, our older adults deserve the dignity of safe secure housing and income to maintain their rental properties. I bring experience as a tenant, an executive administrator with non-profit organizations, property owner and as a community volunteer. The Rent Stabilization Board needs to address issues related to housing stability, and policies that affect property maintenance and management. As a commissioner, I will work with colleagues to develop good governance; and management oversight to provide accountability of resources, and staff duties that align with the mission of the Board and the needs of the community. The Rent Stabilization Board needs the expertise of citizens who have vision and a commitment of fairness to both tenants and landlords. I was chosen to run on the “Berkeley Tenants United for Fairness” slate. Please visit www.BerkeleyTUFF.com to learn more about me and my endorsers.
10. I refer to the following residents of the City of Berkeley:
Nicole Drake, Member of “Tenants United for Fairness” and Rent Board Commissioner
Jay James, Member of “Tenants United for Fairness” and Mechanical Engineer
Kiran Shenoy, Member of “Tenants United for Fairness,” Vice-Chair Police Review Commission
