City of Greenfield City Council Councilmember Robert White

Appointed to the Greenfield City Council in December 2018 after newly elected Mayor Lance Walker vacated his council seat, Robert White was officially anointed by the voters in November 2020. The Greenfield resident has long roots in nearby King City, having graduated from King City High School. He studied business at Hartnell Community College and has been the owner of Bob White Agency, which provides insurance and real estate services, since 1981. White has been active in the Greenfield Rotary Club for decades and has volunteered at the Greenfield Union School District and South Monterey County Joint Union High School District. In a candidate roundup published by the Salinas Valley Tribune, White said, “I would like to see us make improvements to our existing city parks. … We should consider enhancing our business areas, especially downtown. It has been many years since an organized revitalization plan was implemented. A program of painting, installing new awnings, and general improvement would help spur economic activity.”
