“Hadia is an amazing woman with the best interests of the community and the City of Burlingame. You can experience her dedication to the City of Burlingame by strolling through downtown and seeing first hand what she has accomplished as part of the Economic Development and Beautification Commission. Imagine what she will accomplish as your D2 City Councilwoman. It is my honor and privilege to know Hadia, looking forward to seeing all the good things she will accomplish in the coming years!.”

-Leslie Jordan

Mayor Pro Tem San Juan Bautista.

“Hadia is enthusiastic and dedicated to the City of Burlingame. As the Beautification Commissioner, she has offered suggestions and assisted local businesses in making their entrances more welcoming to customers. Hadia was relentless in trying to find ways to help the Downtown Burlingame Improvement District raise needed money for holiday lighting and decorations. With a warm smile, Hadia has a ‘Can Do Attitude’.”

-Laurie Hilt, Executive Director

“I have been working with Hadia on the beautification of all my restaurant fronts in Burlingame for years. Her passion and talent in landscaping design have helped make the entrances of my restaurants more welcoming. Her passion for the community has driven her to constantly take actions to improve our fine City of Burlingame. I am certain that Hadia, as someone who has lived and worked in Burlingame for years, will always pay attention to anybody’s concerns and bring up effective solutions.”

-Dogukan Solmaz

Owner, Mykonos Meze.

“Having lived in the Burlingame area for over a decade and being deeply rooted in its community, I've had the privilege of witnessing Hadia Khoury's unwavering dedication to enhancing our city's beauty. As the owner of Twelvemonth, a restaurant committed to plant-based dining and eco-conscious practices, I am particularly impressed by Hadia's initiatives to elevate our urban landscape.

Hadia's proactive approach to beautification, from revitalizing outdoor planters to illuminating our streets with tree lights, showcases her visionary leadership and passion for creating a vibrant, welcoming environment for residents, visitors, and businesses alike.

Furthermore, Hadia's proven track record of community engagement and collaborative spirit make her an ideal candidate for Burlingame City Council. She not only listens to the concerns of local businesses like mine but actively works to address them with practical solutions that benefit everyone.

I proudly endorse Hadia Khoury for Burlingame City Council District 2 and urge my fellow residents to join me in supporting her vision for a more beautiful and inclusive Burlingame.”

-Bob Trahan,

Owner, Twelvemonth Burlingame

“Hadia embodies the vest of Burlingame spirit. She uniquely understands that accessibility doesn’t have to come at the expense of beauty. In fact, Hadia shows us how functionality and aesthetics go hand-in-hand to improve the quality of life in our life in our beloved town. We need her ideas and her indefatigable drive to make meaningful things happen. We are lucky to have her passion for Burlingame and I hope to see her local impact continue to grow for years to come.”
