Lifelong Burbank Resident Chris Rizzotti has announced his intention to run for the Burbank City Council. The primary election, to be held early in 2015, will see candidates vie for two open seats.
Mayor Emily Gabel-Luddy and Councilman Gary Bric will both be up for re-election, with neither having made an official announcement about their intent to run again.
Here is the Rizzotti announcement, along with information that he included:
It is with great excitement I announce that I will be a candidate in the next election for Burbank City Council. I have lived in the City of Burbank my entire life and built a strong business in this city that I love. With a strong desire to serve, as I now do on the Planning Board, I would consider it an honor to represent the citizens of Burbank as a City Councilmember. Nobody will work longer or harder than me to insure that our City remains the standard that other Cities aspire to.
I will lead with emphasis on positive involvement between our citizens, our elected and our City staff. Working together, with all being vested, will have the highest and greatest impact on the whole.
