Testimonials
“Kitty is dedicated to the community. As a former Councilmember and Mayor of Cupertino, I understand what it takes to be an elected official with the interests of our residents at heart. I see in Kitty those same qualities of compassion and dedication to hard work that are necessary to earn the support of our voters. Kitty believes that we should be honest and thorough about our approach to the issues facing us, and I have seen how we have improved from her work. Kitty will be a great addition to City Council.”
-Patrick Kwok, Former Mayor, City of Cupertino
“KITTY IS CALM, COOL AND COMPETENT. Kitty is extremely smart and knowledgeable about development. She has shown that she is not afraid to stand up for Cupertino against powerful moneyed interests. Kitty is extremely smart, highly qualified and hard-working, and above all has good judgment and the ability to get things done.
One other candidate has publicly promised she would "wine and dine" developers. VOTE FOR KITTY, not for outside interests.”
-Bern Steves - elections, public rights and international law attorney
“I have rarely seen anyone like Kitty who can do such a data and fact-based analysis in any issue the community brings to the table. Kitty's thorough, unbiased and meticulous research makes the outcome acceptable by anyone irrespective of the side they are on. I have learned many things by simply watching the way she handles every situation either on the commission or on a community event. We absolutely need someone like Kitty on the council to bring meaningful decisions to serve our community.”
— Gopal Kumarappan, Chair, Cupertino Parks and Recreation Commission
“Kitty is the Erin Brokavich of Silicon Valley, her relentless advocacy of pro resident issues keeps our community safe from outside corporate interests, lobbyists, and radicals. She’s fought hard for the environment, affordable housing, and public safety.”
— R “Ray” Wang, Former Chair, Current Vice Chair, Planning Commission, City of Cupertino
“Why Kitty? Kitty Moore does her homework! On the Planning Commission, she always comes prepared, having read all the material provided plus doing further research, and is always armed with questions. It’s not how she feels about it, it’s what our municipal laws dictate. If she sees that our laws do not match what we need, she suggests they be reviewed with public input.”
— Peggy Griffin, Cupertino Resident
“ I have had the good fortune of serving with Kitty Moore on Cupertino's Planning Commission. I am truly impressed by Kitty's attention to detail, and persistence in developing a deep, well-rounded understanding of topics under consideration. Her decisions are made after thoughtful deliberation and backed by sound, well-reasoned arguments. With her incredible work ethic and commitment to put the residents' interests first, she is the ideal person to serve on Cupertino's City Council.”
— Vikram Saxena, Cupertino Planning Commissioner
“ Kitty will make an amazing addition to our City council, in my opinion, for the following reasons:
· Her attention to detail
· Her understanding of City codes and rules
· Her understanding of city planning and environmental issues
You don’t have to take my word for it — watch chairperson Kitty Moore of our City’s Planning Commission in action by watching any of the past planning commission meeting videos online.”
— Sashi Begur, Cupertino resident since 1996, Santa Clara County resident since 1987.
“I have known Kitty for several years and the longer I know her, the more I admire her. Kitty is smart, energetic, decent, and has a wicked wit. She does not gloss anything over and is not afraid of asking tough questions. Cupertino would do well to have Kitty on our City Council.”
— Brooke Ezzat, Cupertino resident
“ I find Kitty to be highly informed and thorough in everything she does. As a fellow commissioner, she would often share insights from the Planning Commission perspective on projects being worked by the Bicycle Pedestrian commission. This kind of outreach between commissions is not required, but she does it for completeness and better outcomes for the community. I find this quality to be rare and exceptional. We are blessed to have Kitty as our Planning Commissioner Chair and we would benefit even more with Kitty as City Council member.”
— Muni Madhdhipatla, Cupertino resident and Vice Chair for Bicycle Pedestrian Commission
