Morning Brief -- April 26, 2007
Government in action...
- As projected here last week, former Glendale City Councilman Rafi Manoukian is back, having won reappointment to the Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena Airport Commission. As you recall, when Manoukian lost re-election, he also lost his job as one of Glendale's three representatives on the nine-member board. Last night, he was reappointed 3-0 by a majority of Ara Najarian, Bob Yousefian and John Drayman. Apparently both Dave Weaver and Frank Quintero were interested in the job, but Quintero had to recuse himself from the vote, while Weaver was absent. Here's the News Press story.
