Elect John McCormick for Lafayette City Council

Leadership. Trust. Experience.

Hi Everyone!

My name is John McCormick. My wife, Colleen, and I have proudly called Lafayette home for over thirty years. We raised our family here and own Lamorinda Music in downtown Lafayette. It is my honor to serve on the Lafayette City Council currently, and I am now running for a new four-year term.

Lafayette is a truly special place. Our community boasts beautiful hillsides, wonderful neighborhoods, excellent shopping and dining options, and outstanding schools. I am dedicated to preserving and enhancing the qualities that make Lafayette a place we are all proud to call our hometown.

Unique Experience

As a small business owner in downtown Lafayette, a parent of children who attended Lafayette schools, and a long-time resident, I bring a unique perspective to the City Council. My experience includes serving as Past President and current member of the Lafayette Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors, being a member of the Park Theater Trust Board of Directors, participating in various city and school commissions, and twenty years of volunteering with LASF/LPIE. I have a long-term commitment to our town. 

We have to Work Together

Our city faces significant issues, including budget constraints, affordable housing, the need for more parks and open spaces, and fire safety concerns. I will use my experience to address these challenges and ensure Lafayette remains a great place for you and your family to live. I will continue to work to foster strong cooperation between the City Council, city staff, community members, and neighboring towns and cities. This requires doing my homework, listening to all perspectives, and making decisions that benefit our long-term future.
