Kurth bows out
Don Kurth, who took the mayor's post from Bill Alexander four years ago, will not seek re-election.
Without the incumbent in the mayor's race, the deadline to submit papers will be Aug. 11. Councilman Dennis Michael and military veteran Bill Hanlon are both in the race. Advertising executive Marc Steinorth has pulled papers and said he'll finalize his decision to run on Monday.
Ten people, including incumbents Diane Williams and Rex Gutierrez, will run for two council member seats. They are: Williams, Gutierrez, Erick Jimenez, David Gonzalez, Bill Alexander, Jim Moffatt, Brian O'Connell, Chuck Buquet, Alexander Mendoza Sr. and Luella Hairston.

Looks as if Don's past has caught up with him.
This a good start of getting the old guard off the council.
One down - four to go!
When Rex is mayor and has four bright (to his credit, Don is the only one besides Rex with a college degree), young, non-corrupt council members, Jack Lam is gone, and the City can move forward.
Who ever thought that Ontario would be the better run, and more successful city...
I still want to know why Bill Alexander has come crawling back to Rancho after leaving for his "dream home" in Arizona. I liked the guy when he was mayor while I was in junior high, high school, college.... (read: he was around way too long) but I've learned too many negatives about him since he left. Please do not let this guy back on the council.
Dean speak with forked tongue. Alexander never left his home in rancho. He has never been an AZ resident. You have drunk too much of Erwin nazi poison from 4 years aego
Just think of the possibilities Rex will have in jail. He can mentor his cellmates on life lessons,mentor them on the nuances of lying and stealing and being phony. Why, the opportunities are endless for this little crook. He gets my vote for INMATE OF THE YEAR.
