Lomita's mayor Mark Waronek was overwhelmingly defeated in yesterday's elections.  Waronek was a paid consultant for the Ponte Vista project in San Pedro.  He attempted to distance himself just before the election, which didn't turn out to be the right timing for him.

The voting population of Lomita was wise enough to see a conflict of interest. 

The Ponte Vista project if allowed to build anything more than R-1 density will have a huge impact not just on San Pedro and RPV but also neighboring Lomita and Harbor City.  Bisno is still attempting to go forward with 1900 units even though the community and the comittee put together in part by him has said it's not a good idea for the community.

I hope other local politicians take note.  The people who live near Ponte Vista do not support it and have voted accordingly.
