- Public Employee Pensions
-
Much has been said and written recently about public pensions and the unfunded portion owed by cities and other municipalities to CALPERS. It is true that the unfounded pension liability has increased. However, what has been ignored is how things got to where they are and what the State of California and Torrance have been doing to remedy the situation.
- Infrastructure Improvements
-
So often as a Councilmember, I am asked by residents and business owners in Torrance when infrastructure maintenance or improvements will be done in their neighborhood or area of the City.
