like Anne know that part of the job description is to connect with new generations who love the town the way we do and pass the tors ch . Anne took that challenge so seriously that she came up with the idea for Leadership Laguna , a workshop for budding activists to educate them on the various workings of the city . And when Alex Rounaghi talked to her about running for City Council , she knew she had found her next laurel . When he then asked if Anne and I would be his co-chairs , our quick and easy answer was , “ Yes !”
To those who wonder if Alex is a tad young to be running for Council , we say , “ Look more closely .” Alex is the definition of an “ early bloomer .” He found his passion years ago and already has a resumé of public service that is second to only one other candidate : Mayor Sue Kempf , who has endorsed him along with Mayor Pro Tem Bob Whalen , Laguna Beach Police and Fire , School Board members Kelly Osborne and Dee Perry , Supervisor Katrina Foley , CA Senator Dave Min , Assemblywoman Cottie Petrie-Norris , Congressional Rockstar Katie Porter , and a host of others .
In community forums , meet-andgreets , and door-to-door campaigning , Alex has displayed a depth of
understanding of complex and often contentious community issues . He ’ s well aware that we have become more divided about what is best for Laguna . He doesn ’ t support Measure Q , for example . But if you do , he thinks you should not only be heard but invited to the table , where everyone can look at the data — he loves data — find common ground , and make informed decisions .
Anne and I are asking you to join us in voting for Alex Rounaghi for City Council . He will do what we all want our local leaders to do : protect what ’ s unique and best about our hometown and improve the rest ; listen and learn from everyone who lives and works here ; just as importantly , understand what it takes to run a city in 2022 and beyond , so we ’ ll have the expertise we need to tackle tough problems like public safety , affordable housing , complete streets , and local steps to protect our environment — while living within our means .
It ’ s a tall order from old Laguna , but Alex is smart , curious , open-minded , hardworking , and authentic . He will do us proud on the Council .
Anne Johnson and Chris Quilter are co-chairs of Alex Rounaghi for City Council .
