My family have been residents of Upland for almost 60 years. I witnessed Upland grow from 16,000 residents to over 77,000.
I attended Upland Schools, participated in youth and adults sports programs. My wife, Jody and I raised 4 children in Upland.
I have also operated a successful real estate company and escrow company in Upland for almost 30 years.
I support our Upland Police Department and I am determined to find ways to assist our Chief of Police Darren Goodman and his efforts to increase staffing and provide the service needs for the residents and those that visit Upland.

I support Strategic Growth for Upland, which must match the community’s needs. Upland has very few remaining parcels available for development. I also understands the need to support the revitalization of Historic Downtown Upland.
I am pro-business. It is critical that the city council support businesses and those that create job growth throughout the entire city. Historic Downtown Upland must be a priority. I will recommend and encourage the city staff to find grants and other means to enhance the downtown area.
I recognizes the need to support business development in Districts 3 and 4 to meet the needs of the residents. Too many vacant buildings and opportunities to fill those vacancies have passed, and that needs to change.
I will make recommendations and encourage city staff to find additional ways to decrease vacancies, and increase business in districts 3 and 4, that will generate revenue to support the needs of all Upland residents.
Bill Velto, Mayor. We must all come together, to make Upland, a better place to call home.
