Newport Beach Neighbors for Responsibility supporting Dr. Andy Gerken for Newport Beach City Council

Newport Beach Neighbors for Responsibility is an organization dedicated to protecting the beauty, character, and quality of life that make Newport Beach such a special place. We believe our city's parks, coastline, and neighborhoods deserve real protection from decisions made behind closed doors. Residents, not developers or City Hall insiders, should have the final say on what happens in their community.

Our top priorities are defending Civic Center Park from proposals that would compromise this cherished green space, and pushing back against the rampant, irresponsible development that threatens to erode the character of our neighborhoods, worsen traffic, and strain the resources that make Newport Beach livable.

These priorities are exactly why we're proud to support Dr. Andy Gerken for Newport Beach City Council. As a physician, Dr. Gerken brings the same careful, evidence-based approach to city governance that he uses with his patients: listening closely to residents, weighing the facts, and putting people's well-being first. He has been a clear and consistent voice against relocating the police station and jail into Civic Center Park, calling it a case of misplaced priorities and unnecessary financial risk.

Beyond that fight, Andy is committed to restoring citizen oversight of municipal spending, enhancing our parks and coastal access, rejecting new taxes, and putting resident concerns ahead of developer interests.

Campaigns like this one are won by neighbors, not special interests - and that only happens with your support. Every dollar you give helps us reach voters across Newport Beach with the truth about what's at stake for our neighborhoods, and helps put a leader in office who will finally listen to residents instead of developers.

Please consider making a contribution today. Rour gift directly funds the outreach, materials, and organizing that will get Dr. Andy Gerken elected — and keep Newport Beach the community we all love.
