Don’t worry, you can still read my website archive, chock full of information about our Santa Monica, and how I’ve worked for the past twenty years to represent your interests.

With gratitude toward community members like you, who contribute ideas and effort toward making Santa Monica a better city, I’m running for re-election on my consistent record of responsiveness to residents, and my ongoing work to protect renters from eviction and harassment.

You’ve inspired me to continue protecting our neighborhoods and quality of life, preserving Santa Monica’s charm and character, limiting heights, and reducing commercial over-saturation that brings traffic. 

Our hometown is in the crosshairs of overdevelopment.  I’ve proven that I know how, and when, to say “no” to bad projects. I opposed the mass eviction of almost fifty rent-controlled households at 301 Ocean. I voted against the eviction of vulnerable seniors at Village Trailer Park.  And, of course, I voted against the over-sized, traffic-generating Hines project.

Six years ago I introduced the option of closing Santa Monica Airport, possibly for a park.  I’ll continue to pioneer a sustainable city.  I’ve supported fair wages, and truly affordable housing for working families.  My commitment to excellent public education is unmatched:  I worked for our local schools in the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District.

For twenty years I’ve always been there for our neighborhoods, and for our neighbors.  I helped our Northeast Neighbors with protecting A-lots, Sunset Park with the airport, Mid-City with car dealers, and NOMA with monster mansions.   I’ve worked with Wilmont on the elimination of the 14th and Wilshire “activity center,” and on closing a troublesome rogue sports bar — as well as with OPA on the abuses at Edgemar, and Pico with new zoning protections against gentrification and displacement.

I want to keep working for you for another four years,

and therefore ask for your support and your vote.

I’m YOUR Councilmember.  I don’t take any corporate donations and never have. Thank you for your support!

Election Day is November 6, 2018
