Beverly Hills voters packed City Council chambers on Feb. 3 for a lively candidate forum hosted by the Municipal League of Beverly Hills at City Hall. The debate, which included a round of questions where each candidate was allowed to ask a fellow contender a question, took place on the very same date that Los Angeles County sent out the Vote by Mail ballots.
From the surprise inclusion of attorney Aimee Zeltzer as the sixth contender, who just that morning qualified for the ballot as a write-in candidate for one of two open seats in the March 3 election, to the marijuana/ cannabis-advocating Rabbi Sidney Green, to technologist Robin Rowe’s emphasis on creating a people mover (gondola) in the sky to solve traffic woes and his suggestion of building two 70-story residential towers to solve the City’s housing problem, the evening was certainly never dull.
