City-wide website posts candidate interviews

The City Maven:

"As parents of four children in public schools in CD 12, my wife Maria and I are especially concerned about public education, and how the schools and municipal government in Los Angeles can work together to maintain safe schools that are assets to the children and communities they serve.

We have heard the same slogans, again and again, from downtown bureaucrats and City Hall insiders, most of whom don’t live in our community, and who make decisions – not based on what is good for our neighborhoods – but what is in the best interest of themselves and the developers with whom they enjoy financial relationship. I can offer real solutions and will work all the time to meet to the real needs of our neighborhoods and residents."

Interview goes on reveal a promise of better use of resources and a stand against developments that are out of character for the neighborhood.
