A string of activities will precede the Oct. 21 event at San Jose City College, which will be themed around “collective action.”
San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan speaks during Silicon Valley Pride’s flag raising ceremony at San Jose City Hall in downtown San Jose, Calif., on Tuesday, Aug. 22, 2023. When San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan gives his first State of the City address on Oct. 21, he plans to touch on the same themes he laid out in his inaugural speech in February — homelessness, blight and public safety — as well as economic investment, a fourth theme that he added in his budget message this spring.
Mahan also will be putting that plan into action in the week leading up to the speech, taking part in a series of events in the San Jose community that highlight those themes. “Government can feel very distant and abstract as we talk about things like billion-dollar budgets,” Mahan said. “It can be very disempowering, and our goal is to invite people in to take action and understand they’re an indispensable part of this democracy and this community.”Hershey Felder delivered quite a show for TheatreWorks Silicon Valley on Wednesday night, but this time he had some help from the audience.
