Huffman leaving VICA

He's bucked City Hall. He's pressured Sacramento. And he's been one of the youngest champions of San Fernando Valley business.
But Brendan Huffman says his days are numbered as president and CEO of the Valley Industry and Commerce Association. This week, the 37-year-old business leader said he'll be leaving VICA in December.
"I think I've gotten as far as I can get with this organization. I've pushed a lot of things through," said Huffman, hired two years ago to breathe life into the Valley business advocacy group.
He doesn't yet have another job lined up, and no successor has been named to replace him, he said.
He led VICA to oppose such city initiatives as the phone tax and garbage fees. This year, the group launched Red Tape Busters to clear obstructions at City Hall. Huffman is married to school board member Tamar Galatzan.
