Traci’s campaign for Los Angeles City Council District 11 has gained momentum because it is built on bringing more responsiveness and accountability to City Hall – a mandate from residents that she has shown the ability to deliver on. I’m confident she’s the right person for the job and I’m proud to support her campaign.

Fiona Ma
California State Treasurer, CPA

One of the single most important responsibilities we have as public servants is to ensure safe streets in neighborhoods across Los Angeles. Traci will be an important public safety partner that will work tirelessly to ensure greater accountability and response to directly address the needs of her district, regardless of what zip code you live in.

Monica Rodriguez
Los Angeles City Councilmember, District 7

Traci Park is humbled to receive the support of Yvonne Burke, someone who has been a pillar in public service in Los Angeles and a trail-blazer for African-American women.

Former United States Representative

I’m endorsing Traci Park for Los Angeles City Council. While others have just talked, I know Traci to be a consistent and tireless worker for safer streets and real solutions to the homelessness crisis. She is by far the best choice to restore safe streets for the Westside.

Mike Gatto
Assemblyman (Ret.)(D-Los Angeles)

I’m very pleased to endorse Traci Park. I have gotten to know her quite well between the visits she has made to the Venice Farmers Market that I have managed for the past 35 years, at tree maintenance and plantings, in her contributions to the public meetings hosted by the Venice Neighborhood Council and as a candidate in common with her at several debates and candidate forums. I believe she says what she believes in and is an exceptional listener that has the ability to unite people often with opposing opinions. I believe she is the light at the end of a long dark tunnel of Westside leadership. I hope you will join with me and vote for Traci on November 8th.

Jim Murez
Former CD11 City Council Candidate and Venice Neighborhood Council President

I have had the privilege of getting to know Traci very well since she began her campaign in July 2021. She has been consistently straightforward, honest, hard-working, and strong, and she cares about CD-11 and everyone here. She is also highly competent, experienced, and insightful. I am honored to give her my enthusiastic endorsement. She has earned it.

Paula Gerez
President, Neighborhood Council of Westchester/Playa*

As a neighbor to Mar Vista and Venice, I have many friends who live there and have been frustrated over the last several years of the current council members disconnection to the residents of the community. I know Traci will put the majority of the community first in decision making and not the small vocal minority. This was something I worked hard to do serving Culver City for 8 years.

Traci Park is honored to have earned the endorsement of Steve Soboroff, whose long record of public service and philanthropy has benefitted so many Angelenos.

Steve Soboroff
Los Angeles Police Commissioner

I am proud to endorse Traci Park for City Council. As someone who grew up on the Westside and has lived in LA for over 40 years, I am confident Traci will fairly and faithfully represent her constituents and work every day address the shared concerns of Angelenos across our City.

Josh Geller
President, Los Angeles City Attorneys Association*

Traci’s enthusiasm for turning around WLA and our entire city is contagious. We are lucky to have a future mayor in our midst.

Kathleen Maguire Miller
Former Deputy to Mayor Riordan

As one of the 5 proponents of the Bonin Recall, I have been extremely critical of Mike Bonin. I live by the VA and during COVID, the VA encampment blew up to 70 tents. I saw rats, human feces, trash & debris everywhere, heard domestic violence disputes regularly, etc. I contacted Bonin to see if he could help. Of course he didn’t respond. Traci stepped in & has been extremely willing to meet with neighbors. She cares & is 1000% more responsive than Bonin. I could go on for hours about why she’s better than Darling.

Daren Reifsneider
Brentwood Community Council*

Traci knows there are available solutions to help people recover from life on the streets. And she has the will to implement them.

Heidi Roberts and John Betz
Founders of Haaven Shared Housing

We need somebody who’s going to stand up, not just for housed residents but to get unhoused people into the supportive housing that they need right away. It’s an emergency. It needs to happen right now, not five years from now. I support Traci Park because I know her well and she’s a compassionate person who will help everyone.

Collette Bailey
25-Year Venice Resident

It’s my honor to endorse Traci Park for Councilwomen of CD11. Working in community outreach for the past 20 years here in Los Angeles, we’ve truly witnessed a negative shift in homeless and crime within CD11. We need Traci’s leadership, character, and passion for the people, to assist us in shifting to the next gear, here in Los Angeles. Join me this November as we make CD11 safer for the residents and vote for Traci Park.

Clint Carlton
Resident of CD11

Traci has been visiting residents in the Palisades this past year and from the first time I met her I liked her. She came to hear what we thought and what we needed! She responded to our concerns in a way that showed me she was listening and understood our concerns. Traci’s vision puts families and communities first and that’s what CD 11 desperately needs. I support her 100% and urge you to do the same.

Barbara Kohn
Current president, Pacific Palisades Historical Society; former president, Pacific Palisades Community Council; member, Pacific Palisades Design Review Board; former president, Pacific Palisades Residents Association; Prop K representative, CD 11 north (15 years)

Traci Park is the only candidate in the race who is bold enough to do what needs to be done on the issue of homeless and related crime and safety issues. She has a clear vision for a better CD11. She is a true stakeholder in our community, not a politician trying to ride the merry-go-round of a life in elected office.

Bob Carlson
CEO, Arbor Collective

One of the things I like best about Traci is the way she works to unite the residents of CD11. She’s been to the Palisades many times, and I know she’s done the same all over the district. Instead of pitting neighborhoods against each other, Traci brings people together to achieve our shared objectives.”

Sharon Kilbride
Santa Monica Canyon Civic Association & BOCA Neighborhood Association*

I’ve been a close observer of the CD11 political scene for over 30 years and Traci is right up there with the best. She is smart, she does her homework and she knows the issues. Traci also has the grit to get things done that need to be done. Traci will make us proud again; I look forward to seeing her become our next councilmember.

Jeff Hall
Brentwood

“I am supporting Traci Park because she has the skills, experience, and passion to effectuate much-needed change. We need a leader who respects the voices of the community as a whole, and can address matters responsibly and with compassion. She will make sure to provide the services and resources needed for the unhoused and clean up our city and make it safer for everyone.

Theresa Torrance
Neighborhood Council of Westchester/Playa*

Because of how Councilmember Bonin treated Mar Vista, and how he deceived us, I was very cautious at first. Upon meeting Traci and talking to her, I got an immediate sense of her sincerity and goals. Traci led the pack by MONTHS to battle Mr. Bonin. She was new to the campaign trail, listened and answered questions with honesty. Although she was from Venice, she quickly understood and listened to the failings, downward spiral, and frustrations we were – and still are – experiencing in Mar Vista. I could tell that she was not in this only for her and Venice. I sensed she knew that this job was going to be a commitment to ALL of CD 11.

At this point I have seen her speak at least 10 times. At every event, she was sincere. At every event, she did not sound like a recording. She listened to every group’s unique issues and problems while showing an understanding that we all have things in common. We all are experiencing fallout and negative impact from the failure of leadership in CD 11 for the last 7 years. It is a huge job to tackle, to steer this ship right.

I have heard her time and again say that she will follow the law, and enforce the law, to the benefit of ALL of us. She knows that it does no one any good to have people live on the streets. She has explained how she will work to provide care and resources to those in need. Traci has shared her phone number, her email and her time. She knows that laws are put in place, not to be ignored, but to be followed for the greater good. I know she will be very busy once she is elected. I do not expect her to answer every call and email. But I trust her to read and listen to our concerns. I trust that she will not live in a bubble in her office and she will do her very best for ALL residents, business owners and stakeholders in CD11.

I am of an age where I have seen and met my share of BS’ers. After listening to a person, I mostly can sense if a person is out for their own agenda, or if they are sincere in their goals that involve others. Traci Park is genuine.

I care so much for my community. I grew up here, went to school here, raised my kids here, and still live here. We need new leadership with new goals. We need someone who will represent ALL of CD 11 and not just choice groups. We need someone who appreciates and treasures what an amazing place this is to live, work and play. We need Traci Park to represent us.

Please vote for Traci Park. She is from our community and cares for it as much as we do.

I worked side by side with Traci for a number of years on complex and serious legal cases. She was an exceptionally sharp and intuitive co-counsel. We achieved positive results for our clients on some very difficult issues.

Raymond E. Hane III, Esq.
California Employment Counsel, APC

I have had the privilege of working with Traci Park for over 20 years in her capacity as counsel to some of the largest municipalities in Southern California. In this capacity, Traci worked closely with elected and appointed officials throughout California. She developed a deep network of colleagues who respected her legal acumen and practical approach of addressing legal challenges grounded in public policy. She also gained a profound insight into the workings of governmental agencies ranging from small local districts, large cities and counties rivaling the size of the City of Los Angeles, to sprawling state and federal governing and regulatory agencies.

Traci was always a zealous advocate for her clients. While we often found ourselves on opposite sides of legal disputes, she approached each conflict as a problem to solve quickly and efficiently. Traci is one of those rare individuals who will assume her position on the City Council with a keen knowledge of City operations, budgeting, and services.

Traci will be as faithful a public servant as she was a practicing attorney. We can confidently rely on Traci to protect the public treasury and preserve the public trust.
