LETTER FROM THE EDITOR by Alex LiMandri VOTE MARCH 3RD: Endorsement | José Huizar for City Council We love Downtown LA and he is the candidate that made a difference and will continue to do so in the next few year. We need him to grow our Downtown LA for the future. José Huizar was elected to the Los Angeles City Council’s 14th District in 2005 and overwhelmingly re-elected in 2007 and 2011. Through his years of public service, Councilmember Huizar has proven himself a staunch advocate for educational reform, public safety, environmental protection and sustainable economic development. He has helped create thousands of new jobs, promoted historical preservation and created a framework to bring the beloved Streetcar back to Downtown Los Angeles. Councilmember Huizar has also helped bring hundreds of acres of open space, new parks and park upgrades to park-poor areas of his district and is one of the City’s leading “Complete Streets” proponents, ushering in groundbreaking pedestrian and bike-friendly policies that are seen as the model for the entire City. Prior to his Council election, José served as a member and President of the Los Angeles Unified School District’s Board of Education. As Board President, José oversaw the planning and implementation of the largest school construction program in U.S. history. for more info about his accomplisment please visit http://issuu.com/ulisan/ docs/huizar_-_cd14_years/0 Alex LiMandri Editor-in-Chief DTLA LIFE | Magazine! www.dtlalife.com www.laloftsrealty.com
