Assistant City Auditor James Johnson will kick off his campaign for the 7th District City Council seat at 11:30 a.m. Nov. 14 at Necho's Restaurant, 2380 Santa Fe Ave. Johnson is one of four candidates so far in what should be an exciting and competitive race. Two-term 7th District Councilwoman Tonia Reyes Uranga announced last week she is running for a third term as a write-in candidate. Also running are Jill Hill, president of the Wrigely Area Neighborhood Alliance, and Jack Smith, who works as a Hollywood line producer and is a local homeless and housing advocate.
To attend Johnson's campaign kickoff, RSVP to Mike by e-mailing RSVP@johnsonforcitycouncil.com or by calling 562-522-9096.
