Working for you!
“I am a retired city clerk (and served as deputy city clerk in Laguna Beach). It is extremely important that the city clerk’s office retain independence from the city manager and city council because the office is there to ensure citizens can participate in their local government no matter who or what they support politically. That’s why I support Ann Marie McKay. She is not beholden to other officials in city government. And, she is smart, has city government experience, and a hard worker.” – Meg Monahan
