Katrina Foley, the Single Best Candidate for City Council
In a strong showing of bipartisan support, seven former Costa Mesa Mayors announced their support of Katrina Foley’s re-election campaign. The seven are Mayor and Vice Chairman of the OCTA Board Peter Buffa, Mayor Sandy Genis, Mayor Libby Cowan, Mayor Linda Dixon, Mayor Joe Erickson, Mayor and OC Community College Trustee Mary Hornbuckle, and Mayor and Planning Commission Chairman Don Hall.
Commenting of the unprecedented group endorsement, Former Mayor Peter Buffa commented that this was “ ...the first time in my memory that all of us have united around a single candidate for City Council. We represent different neighborhoods, different political parties and different approaches to local government but we are united in our support of Katrina. She’s doing a great job.”
Former Mayor Sandy Genis said …"I have lived in Costa Mesa since I was seven, and it has not been until the last couple of years that I have ever seriously considered moving elsewhere. I am endorsing Katrina Foley because of the actions of our current council majority that I do not think are in the long term interests of the Costa Mesa citizenry and our quality of life.”
Genis continued… “I believe that their choices on a number of matters have been fiscally irresponsible, making it difficult, if not impossible, for future councils to address our infrastructure needs."
Foley also has recently been endorsed by the Costa Mesa Firefighters and the Costa Mesa Police Officers Associations.
Foley has served four years as a council member, and was previously a five-year veteran of the Costa Mesa Planning Commission. She is currently one of 9 candidates running for three seats for the City Council election on November 4, 2008. Learn more about this candidate online at www.katrinafoley.com.
