Four candidates for City Council held official kickoff parties on April 12. The Beverly Hills tradition marks the start of the campaign season and presents the opportunity for the candidates to gather supporters and potential supporters, outline their campaign platform and generally inspire enthusiasm and civic engagement. The Courier attended all four events, beginning with Councilmember Lester Friedman and Commissioner Andy Licht’s morning gatherings, continuing with Commissioner Rebecca Pynoos and Mayor Sharona Nazarian in the afternoon.
