Councilman Dion Bracco in his own Words
A fourth-generation Gilroyan and small business owner who worked his way up from the bottom, Gilroy City Councilman Dion Bracco is a plain-spoken local leader with a real passion for his community. He has seen Gilroy grow from a small agricultural town into a commuter hub impacted by the growth of Silicon Valley. Instrumental in the founding of the Compassion Center and the South County Youth Task Force, Bracco believes issues like homelessness and gang suppression are best solved regionally. He has been a council member since 2005.
