Los Angeles League of Conservation Voters endorses Eric Alegria for Rancho Palos Verdes City Council
(Los Angeles County) – The Los Angeles League of Conservation Voters (LALCV) – which has supported pro-environment local candidates throughout Los Angeles County for more than three decades – today announced its endorsement of Eric Alegria for Rancho Palos Verdes City Council in the upcoming November 7th election.
“As a healthcare service provider, small business owner and environmental steward, Eric Alegria understands that a healthy environment, healthy community, and a healthy economy go hand-in-hand,” said LALCV Director Kirsten James, who led the organization’s Endorsement Team for this race. “Eric will be an energetic and effective leader on key environmental issues for Rancho Palos Verdes, like protecting open space and greening city services.”
As a coastal community in a highly urbanized region, Rancho Palos Verdes faces many environmental challenges, with weather extremes and climate change creating additional pressures. Alegria will serve Rancho Palos Verdes well by protecting and enhancing open spaces, promoting “greening” programs within City departments, and ensuring environmental regulations are implemented.
