Editor,

Congratulations to Steve Dicterow extolling  Laguna’s rustic charm and unique village character. Keeping focus on Laguna’s essential attributes and values on which you campaigned must be ensured. Thank you!

With the re-election of all incumbents, their combined  experience, commitment and thoughtfulness will be greatly appreciated and tested in the years to come.

I hope each will work together diligently to  find thoughtful resolution for the urgent and far-reaching issues, be it traffic, water, services, public transportation, tourism, cleanliness,  improvements  for safety  and better communication as well  all important  environmental mandates.

I encourage City Council to expand public involvement, develop more citizen oversight, demanding greater transparency in city affairs and managing public funds responsibly while highlighting and supporting Laguna’s unique cultural and physical qualities through meaningful debate and decision-making.

A star example of local environmental success and model of how expansive goals merge with rustic charm in an environmentally sensitive location was highlighted at the Art Hotel recently honoring the late Rose Ekeberg, Jim Stauffer and John Cunningham, who initiated and developed Friends of the Sea Lions, now the Pacific Marine Mammal Center.

Congratulations to Bob Whalen for his important work to secure nuclear waste, Laura Parisi as our valued city treasurer and Laguna Beach School Board elects, Peggy Wolff and Jan Vickers for their tireless commitment to future generations.

To Verna Rollinger, my great admiration and appreciation for her continuing efforts and involvement keeping Laguna beautiful, relevant and unique.

To all who campaigned, great appreciation for your efforts and my very best for a Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Leah Vasquez, Laguna Beach
