My Why.

I am Maureen “Mo” Mulheren and for the last three years I have served as the Second District Supervisor and prior to that I was the Mayor of Ukiah. After six years  on the City Council, I was ready to bring my dedication and local knowledge to our County Board of Supervisors. Born and raised in Ukiah, I have deep roots in the community and am proud to be raising my family here. Protecting their future and ensuring their quality of life motivates me every day to advocate for our region’s economic well-being and natural resources. As an entrepreneur and local business owner, I understand the challenges our community faces and have used my deep community involvement and relationships to work with you to address our most pressing economic, housing, and healthcare issues.

I am experienced, accessible, invested in our community.
What Is Next?

Board Chair

This year I will serve as the Board Chair and I hope to streamline and make meetings more effective. 

County Staff

My next step is to make sure we get all employees to a “Market wage” and to keep contracts consistent so that everyone knows that to expect.

Fire Safety

I helped work on the campaign to get Measure P tax passed. My Goal is to work towards ongoing revenue streams

and advocate for policies from the State to reduce the need

for local dollars to fund

these vital services.

Mental Health

Mendocino County experiences generational struggles with poverty, addiction, and the challenges with mental health where so many try to self-medicate; our community needs tools to handle anxiety, depression, and substance abuse.
