This person represents District 3 on Moorpark's five-member City Council. They vote on city ordinances, the budget, and land-use decisions, alongside a citywide-elected Mayor and an appointed city manager who runs day-to-day operations. Moorpark adopted district-based Council elections in 2019 (first used in the 2020 election) and redrew the district map in 2022 following the 2020 Census; Districts 1 and 3 are up this cycle, while Districts 2 and 4 aren't up again until 2028. The term is four years.

No other candidate filed for this seat by the August 7, 2026 deadline. (Moorpark extends the filing period to August 12 for any office a sitting incumbent skips, but that extension didn't apply here since Means, the incumbent, filed on schedule.) District 1, next door on this same ballot, is Moorpark's only genuinely contested council race this cycle.

Tom Means

Tom Means is the incumbent, running unopposed for another term. Their ballot designation is simply "Incumbent." They filed their candidacy July 13, 2026, and qualified July 23.
