Neighbors, Yesterday morning, hundreds of runners hit the streets of Redondo Beach for the 48th annual Super Bowl Sunday 5K/10K — and the energy was incredible. Watching our fire department, police, public works crews, and the Chamber pull that event together year after year is one of those things that reminds you what a well-run…
Neighbors, This morning, a mural of marine life was officially unveiled at the corner of Catalina and N. Gertruda—the same spot I drove past for years thinking “that wall could use some life.” Today it gets it. But this first day of February also marks something bigger: the start of Black History Month’s centennial. One hundred years…
If you know a young person who cares about their community and wants a real seat at the table, this is an opportunity worth sharing. Applications are now open for the 2026 LA2050 Youth Ambassador Program, a countywide initiative that empowers young Angelenos to engage directly in civic participation, philanthropy, and community leadership. The LA2050…
Neighbors, What a week. I’m just back from Sacramento, and while I was there, I saw the news we’ve been working toward for months: the Metro Board unanimously approved the Hawthorne Boulevard alignment for the C/K Line extension. That means the light rail will run where it belongs—down a commercial corridor—not through our neighborhoods. To everyone who…
Last week, I met directly with Los Angeles County staff to get a detailed status update on the Avenue A Pedestrian Ramp project. While the official schedule has not yet changed, the County has committed to exploring ways to accelerate the process where possible. This project must move through both the California Coastal Commission and…
Neighbors, Today, we honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. This is a day that always reminds me why civic engagement matters. When I think about the arc of progress Dr. King described, I see it playing out right here in our community: neighbors showing up to advocate for one another, volunteers restoring our green spaces,…
Hello everyone, Last Wednesday, 103 neighbors showed up at the library to donate blood. One person told me it was their first time; they decided to try after seeing our Police Department’s partnership with the Red Cross. Since the drive got more than 100 donations, we get to see the comedy stylings of Officer Kyle…
Happy New Year, Neighbors, The calendar flipped last week, and City Hall is already back online. This week brings the first City Council and commission meetings of 2026, a community blood drive that could save lives, and a reminder that small acts of civic participation compound over time. Below is what’s coming, what you need…
Hello Redondo friends, I hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Council wrapped its final meeting on December 16, and while City Hall offices are closed through the new year, I’ve been using the time to get out in the city. I spent an afternoon and evening last week with the crew at Fire Station #2,…
Happy Holidays, Neighbors, The sleigh wrapped up its final routes Friday night, and this week Chief Hoffman closed out three decades of service. Both milestones, one seasonal, one career-defining, remind me how much this city runs on people who show up consistently and build trust one interaction at a time. Wednesday is Christmas Eve, and…
Hello all & Happy Holidays, It’s been a busy one! Dozens of you stopped me this week with thoughts on the King Harbor sign. Some loved the update, some didn’t, and a few just wanted to talk through the tradeoffs. That’s exactly how this should work — direct feedback, real conversations, no filter. The sign decision…
Ho Ho Ho How are you friends? The sleigh routes went live this week, and within minutes my phone lit up with neighbors mapping out where to catch Santa. That’s the kind of problem-solving I appreciate — families coordinating curbside meetups like they’re launching a satellite. December’s moving fast, and this week packed in real…
