For Gilbert Town Council
Chuck Bongiovanni isn’t just a public servant—he’s a nationally recognized entrepreneur, franchise founder, and strategic problem-solver who’s built businesses from the ground up while never losing sight of people first.
With over 25 years of leadership experience in both the public and private sectors, Chuck brings a rare blend of innovation, fiscal discipline, and operational know-how. He is the founder of Majestic Residences, a fast-growing residential assisted living franchise brand operating across multiple states. Prior to that, Chuck built CarePatrol into the largest senior placement franchise in the country before successfully exiting the company in a national acquisition. He’s advised hundreds of business owners, created award-winning training systems, and developed national platforms that improve the lives of seniors and their families.
Chuck holds two Master's degrees, and his leadership style is defined by data-driven decisions, unshakable transparency, and hands-on accountability.
As Vice Mayor and Councilmember, Chuck has brought his business sensibility to Town Hall. He asks the tough financial questions, demands long-term planning over short-term fixes, and insists on measurable results. Whether it's addressing Gilbert’s aging infrastructure, pushing for fiscal responsibility in utility rate decisions, or standing up for working families,
Chuck applies the same principles he’s used to grow successful companies: listen to your customers, stay lean, innovate constantly, and never stop being accountable.
What sets Chuck apart is that he doesn't just talk about solutions—he builds them. From launching workforce development programs to spearheading the Teen Violence Sub-Committee after troubling community events, Chuck steps in where others step back. His business experience taught him that leadership isn’t about titles—it’s about outcomes.
In response to tragic incidents of teen violence, Chuck took decisive action to protect Gilbert’s youth and restore community trust.
Chuck led the effort to establish a Town Council Teen Violence Subcommittee, on which he proudly served. That work quickly expanded into the creation of a Teen Violence Task Force—making Gilbert the only municipality in the metropolitan area to bring residents, families, schools, and public safety leaders together in a coordinated response.
As a direct result of this initiative, the Town of Gilbert also hired a dedicated police officer focused exclusively on teen engagement and prevention, strengthening relationships between youth and law enforcement and addressing issues before they escalate.
Chuck believes leadership means acting when it matters most—and working side‑by‑side with the community to keep Gilbert safe.
We all feel it—when that utility bill arrives and the number is higher than expected, it doesn’t feel abstract. It feels personal. For many families in Gilbert, it's another hit to a stretched budget. For seniors on fixed incomes, young parents juggling expenses, and small business owners trying to stay afloat, every dollar matters.
That’s why I believe in something simple: telling you the truth.
No spin. No vague language. Just facts about why rates have gone up, what those dollars are paying for, and what we’re doing to ensure those investments are responsible, transparent, and necessary. As your Councilmember, I’ve pushed for open dialogue, fiscal accountability, and better communication—because earning your trust means more than words. It means action.
We didn’t get here overnight. And we won’t fix everything overnight. But I will never stop fighting for smart solutions, honest answers, and long-term planning that protects Gilbert’s future while respecting the people who call it home.
