Mary has Challenged Powerful Special Interests

1) Mary led her neighbors in a successful challenge to Sutter Health. Sutter Health proposed a new medical office building in her neighborhood that did not meet city guide lines. After negotiations and City Council hearings, the community got arguably the best-looking office building in Tracy. And Sutter agreed to move the existing 100-year-old tree to the corner rather than cutting it down.

2) Mary successfully sued the City of Tracy and Surland Development over an illegal Development Agreement. The most significant outcome was that the Cit of Tracy regained control of the development of swim facilities – swim facilities that Surland has promised and delayed for 20 years.
