Letter: Regarding Laguna Beach Council Candidate

0
1027

The front page article in the Sept. 4 Indy about Ruben Flores reads like a hit piece rather than a newsworthy article. Reading the entire article one realizes that the landlord of Ruben Flores (owner of Laguna Beach Nursery, 397 N. Coast Hwy.) is Heisler Laguna, LLC, which is controlled by Mo Honarkar. Mr. Honarkar has multiple development projects in the works and Ruben, a candidate for City Council, is one of his most vocal opponents. It appears Mr. Honarkar is punishing Flores, by significantly raising his rent and refusing to fix the violations on his rental property. Perhaps the motivation is to smear his good name.

Flores knows every Laguna Beach street like the back of his hand and combined with his design knowledge has contributed to the natural environment of our community like no other person – he will hold the line on big development. He is passionate about the natural beauty, integrity, civility and historicity of Laguna Beach. Flores is someone who has shown over the many years he has lived in Laguna that he supports and understands these unique values so many of us share and wish to preserve as a community.

He has my vote. I hope he has yours. Thank you.

Charlotte Masarik, Laguna Beach
