'Some' have said the sports fishing pier 'may' not be needed. 'Maybe' it would be a good place for the boat ramp. That's what I heard Councilmember Embdee say during last week's meeting. Nothing more than that. We each determine what is the truth. Name calling and unfounded allegations should not have a place in our campaign debates. And all candidates should 'call-out' candidates that are not contributing to a respectful debate. I've always felt that recalls are a waste of time and money. We have enough elections as it is. If I supported a recall every time I disagreed with how any of the councilmembers voted, we'd be having recalls every couple months. Haha... Thank you for any support you can give to the Cancer Support Community. It's not possible to put into words how valuable groups like theirs are to our society.
In 2018, Councilman Nils Nehrenheim demanded that the City pay for his defense after he assaulted and vandalized a Riviera Village restaurant. Nehrenheim’s defense failed last year because such shameful behavior is indefensible. Why hasn’t he been held accountable? The cost to Redondo Beach residents was probably close to $100,000 or more for his defense. This is money we sorely need to maintain City programs. Even worse is the long-term cost of the bad faith he created with the Redondo Beach business community.
Redondo Beach residents should not have to pay for Nehrenheim’s outrageous conduct. The Mayor and Council have a fiduciary duty to hold Councilman Nehrenheim accountable by making him reimburse the City for his defense costs.

Good evening Mayor and Council Members,
In 2018, Councilman Nils Nehrenheim demanded that the City pay for his defense after he assaulted and vandalized a Riviera Village restaurant. Nehrenheim’s defense failed last year because such shameful behavior is indefensible. Why hasn’t he been held accountable? The cost to Redondo Beach residents was probably close to $100,000 or more for his defense. This is money we sorely need to maintain City programs. Even worse is the long-term cost of the bad faith he created with the Redondo Beach business community.
Redondo Beach residents should not have to pay for Nehrenheim’s outrageous conduct. The Mayor and Council have a fiduciary duty to hold Councilman Nehrenheim accountable by making him reimburse the City for his defense costs.
