DESCRIPTION
The fruits of the labor of Mayor Robert Garcia’s Mayoral Transition Team, which was introduced just two days after Garcia won the mayorship on June 3, were unveiled at a press conference Thursday, September 11, 2014 at noon, where a document outlining the group’s research and recommendations was presented.Chaired by Long Beach City College Trustee Doug Otto, the team was filled with community leaders ranging from bicycling advocates to urban designers, educators to business folk. Their volunteered time was to be spent creating a rubric that would guide not only Garcia’s policy, but the future direction of the city as a whole.“This is a document of ideas,” Garcia said. “It provides a foundation for the next four years, as we work to maintain a balanced budget, strengthen our economy, enhance education and training of students and young people, build a sustainable City with a high quality of life, and ultimately create the 'government of the future' through technology and innovation. All of the ideas in this document were discussed and debated by the Transition Team, which offered an invaluable source of knowledge and vision that can now be presented as a guide for the City and measure of our success.”Read more: http://lbpost.com/news/2000004399-mayoral-transition-team-unveils-final-report-and-recommendations
