Planning Commissioner Justin Brown Announces Run For PUSD Board

PLEASANTON, CA — Pleasanton Planning Commissioner Justin Brown announced his candidacy to represent District 5 on the Pleasanton Unified School District Board.

Brown is an electrical engineer working in IT who has served on the Pleasanton Planning Commission for six years, and has three children in Pleasanton schools. He also served three years on the Bike, Pedestrian and Trails Committee before joining the Planning Commission, which he chaired in 2021. Brown is also an active volunteer for the schools and the Cub Scouts.

“As a Planning Commissioner dealing with land use issues as well as a father to three kids currently attending PUSD schools, I recognize the tremendous value our schools bring to our entire city,” Brown said in a campaign statement. “If elected, I will work with my fellow trustees to build trust and communicate effectively based on input from parents, teachers, students, administrators, and city officials. Our goal should be to always advance the best interests of our students and provide them with both quality education and facilities they need for academic success. I will work tirelessly on behalf of our community and would love to earn the vote of our residents in District 5 this November.”

Brown named fiscal responsibility, school safety, teacher retention, quality programming, facility maintenance and upgrades, and effective communication as his guiding principles.
