Tracy City Center - Downtown Updates – May 2018
Mountain House’s Own, Reno Ursal, Seeks to Become
Every Thursday – Attention commuters and working families! Select
businesses in Downtown Tracy have committed and will be participating
San Joaquin County Assessor in June 5 Election
in our Late Night Thursdays, extending their business hours on Thursday
nights to 9pm. https://tracycitycenter.com/event/late-night-thursdays
Reno Ursal, known around town primarily for his basketball skills, as coach for the MHHS Girls
Basketball program, and the independent Wolverines, seeks to take his professional skills up a
notch. Ursal, whose current job is Alameda County Supervising Appraiser, is running for San
Joquin County Assessor.
In his own words –
Since 2004, I’ve worked through the ranks of the Alameda County Assessor’s Office,
serving as Supervising Appraiser the last seven years.
I have property tax appraisal experience and knowledge of the California Revenue
and Taxation Code. I know how an Assessor’s Office runs and operates. Yet I also offer a
fresh perspective as a candidate outside of the San Joaquin Assessor-Recorder Office.
A few specific goals of mine:
Implement proactive programs to educate and inform the public on Prop 13 and
California Property Tax law.
Streamline technology platforms with partner County agencies
Emphasize clear and engaged communication with homeowners, businesses, other
County agencies, State Board Of Equalization staff and County Board of Supervisors.
I’m passionate about serving and giving back, exemplified by my involvement in
my local communities as a basketball coach and youth mentor. I’ve worked with multiple 501c3 non-profits
to engage our youth in sports and education programs that will lead them towards a successful path.
I was moved to run for office so San Joaquin County residents have another candidate to choose from and
my belief I am well qualified with 13+ years Assessor’s Office experience who can offer a fresh perspective to
this position in San Joaquin County.
