West Sacramento’s Chris Cabaldon
An Ambitious Wonk on the Riled Side
By Jeff Hudson
West Sacramento’s mayor, Chris Cabaldon, is - by his own admission - a policy wonk. He loves to talk about planning and zoning, maintaining a healthy housing mix, mass transportation and attracting businesses that will generate tax revenue, all of them issues prevalent in the region.
They’re also factors remaking West Sacramento into a much larger and more influential community, transforming its long-standing image as a collection of warehouses, and in the process, turning Cabaldon into a rising star in the Democratic Party.
Cabaldon, 38, grew up in a Southern California, Filipino-American family. After earning a degree in environmental economics at UC Berkeley, and a masters degree in public policy and administration at CSUS, he chose to remain in the state capital he says, “to work on change through state government.” Cabaldon is a 12-year resident of West Sacramento.
