A Candidate’s forum for the third Council district for the new city.
The Northridge Committee Council’s area is in both District 1 and 3. We are had the candidates for District 1 (portions of Northridge, North Hills and Granada Hills) speak at our last meeting, and for District 3 (portions of Northridge, Chatsworth and Porter ranch) at this meeting.
We intend to use the following format:
Each candidate will have two minutes to present an overview of their positions.
Then each candidate will be asked to answer the following questions regarding what they intend to do if elected:
1. Public safety issues
2. Traffic issues
3. Education (we know that the new city council does not control LAUSD but has considerable influence in deciding the future of LAUSD or it’s breakup)
4. Will they agree not have illegal signs placed. Go here for the sign law:
