Vote By March 4th
Mayor – Nils Nehrenheim
District 1 City Council – Rolf Strutzenberg
Mayor – Nils Nehrenheim
Nils Nehrenheim is truly the leader Redondo Beach needs! His extensive experience and proven track record are what set him apart as the ideal choice for Mayor. Here’s a closer look at what makes him the right fit:
- Proven Leadership in Crisis: Taking on the dual role of City Council Member and Mayor Pro Tem during a challenging time when Mayor Bill Brand was fighting Stage 4 lung cancer shows Nils’ ability to lead under pressure. He didn’t just maintain the status quo; he actively guided the Council through significant decisions, demonstrating resilience and resourcefulness.
- Collaborative Achievements: As President of the Independent Cities Association, Nils built vital relationships that have led to substantial outcomes for Redondo Beach, such as the $2 million secured for improvements to Artesia Blvd. and effecting Charter change for good governance. These connections are invaluable for the city’s growth and development.
- Financial Stewardship: His success in achieving record revenue growth and saving Redondo Beach $100 million in pension debt is a testament to his financial acumen. This not only ensures a sustainable fiscal future but also enhances the city’s ability to invest in community services and infrastructure.
- Commitment to Transparency: Nils’ implementation of an online transparent budget process allows residents to easily understand and engage with the city’s financial decisions. This kind of accountability fosters trust and encourages civic participation.
- Community-Driven Projects: The King Harbor Amenities Plan and upgrades to areas like Riviera Village and the Pier are examples of Nils’ dedication to improving local spaces for residents and visitors alike. These projects are not just beautification efforts; they enhance community pride and economic vitality.
- Ethical Standards: Nils’ refusal to accept endorsements or donations from city employees or contractors shows his integrity and commitment to serving the people of Redondo Beach first and foremost. This approach eliminates potential conflicts of interest and ensures he remains accountable to the community. Hear Nils say why in his own words. Easy Reader Mayor Forum
Unlike the temporary, appointed-Mayor’s daily grind of occupying an office, writing memos and RFPs, and taking credit for the work done before him, Nils brings a proactive approach to leadership. He understands that true progress requires collaboration, innovation, and a genuine commitment to the community’s needs.
Vote for Nils Nehrenheim for Mayor – he’s not just another candidate; he’s the leader who will move Redondo Beach forward with integrity and vision!
Rolf Strutzenberg for Council Member District 1
The Rescue Our Waterfront Executive Board unanimously supports Rolf for Redondo Beach Council District 1. Rolf has continually demonstrated a high level of ethical integrity in public service, will move Redondo Beach forward, and not at the expense of Residents.
Rolf Strutzenberg has served our community on multiple commissions, committees, and the Redondo Beach Unified School District Board. We are impressed he is committed to continued smart growth and improvements without diminishing the quality of life in the city.
Rolf’s priorities include:
- Fighting State mandates that force zoning from Sacramento on Redondo Beach.
- Keeping the AES powerplant site zoned for park and open space.
- Working to revive recently closed storefronts along PCH.
- Mitigating Traffic Issues and working with Law Enforcement to stop truck traffic along Prospect Blvd.
- Implementation of a clear and understandable budget process.
- Continue the Revitalization of the King Harbor Waterfront and implementation of the amenities plan.
His opponent in the District 1 race sadly supports over-development and proudly announced an endorsement from Abundant Housing L.A. For those who don’t know, this group has written letters to State agencies opposing our housing element regardless of it already being approved and certified! They even supported the current YIMBY lawsuit against the city. They also flooded Redondo Beach with emails, comments and speeches at City Hall to cheerlead for 3,000+ Housing units at the AES site, and more! Strutzenberg is a proven leader who will take us forward, not back to what residents have voted down, multiple times.
Rolf has the best interests of Redondo Beach at heart and will make an excellent City Council Member who will foster continued improvements to the city. His results as recent Chair of the Charter Review Committee underscore his pragmatism, knowledge and visionary capabilities.
