While I haven't always agreed with Jim Light, I know how dedicated he is to our community and have seen the time and energy he puts into serving all of us as Mayor. In these divisive times, he's worked hard to bring people together and find pragmatic solutions to the many challenges our City faces. He has the experience we need to best represent everyone in Redondo Beach and move us forward. I hope you'll join me in voting for Jim Light for Mayor of Redondo Beach
SUPPORT FROM COUNCILMEMBER BEHRENDT
Last year, after the passing of former Mayor Bill Brand, I was one of two Redondo Beach City Council Members who voted “No” on appointing Jim Light as Mayor Brand’s successor.
However, fast-forward one year, and I’m humbled to say that Mayor Jim Light has proven me wrong. He’s shown himself to be a unifier who’s committed to serving the entire City, giving both North and South the attention and respect they deserve. Although Mayor Light did not want or plan to run for election, I, along with many others, personally requested and encouraged him to reconsider his decision because of the excellent job he has done. I’m pleased, with the blessing of his wife Pat and daughter Alli, he made the decision to become a candidate for Mayor and make the sacrifice of time and effort to serve us.
Although there are other capable candidates in this race, after careful consideration, and weighing all options, I’ve concluded that Mayor Jim Light’s track record of dedication, results, and leadership has earned him my first choice vote for Mayor of Redondo Beach.
