With three of its members facing term limits, the Redondo Beach Board of Education voted Tuesday to elect a new president and vice president.

Anita Avrick and Laura Emdee, who were elected in 2011, replaced Jane Diehl as president and Todd Loewenstein as vice president of the board, respectively.

Diehl and Loewenstein, along with Drew Gamet, had been on the board for the past nine years. They will be termed out in 2012.

Perhaps we should just turn our heads and let the City Council violate the law. Is that what you…Read More would do Mr H? The City Charter is the law of Redondo. The Council chose knowingly to violate it. When the judge found them in violation, the same Council doubled the costs with a frivolous appeal. This time three judges threw it out. Had the Council followed the Charter, there would be zero costs. If you want to hold anyone accountable, it should be those who cast the vote to violate the City Charter and disenfranchise the voters of Redondo. You should not hold me and the over 200 residents who contributed to the lawsuit to uphold the City Charter responsible for the Council's illegal action.

We are still waiting for someone -- perhaps the author of this post -- to make a coherent,…Read More fact-based argument in favor of Mr. Diels. With all due respect, conclusory hopes and dreams of "reform" will not get 'er done in the face of Mr. Diels' voting record as City Councilman. Thankfully, one good thing has come of the author's blog post. The facts and blog posts have vindicated the honesty and integrity of the campaigns run by Dawn Esser and Chris Cagle, against a baseless attack by Mrs. Diels. If I had a magic mand, I would wave it and change the City Charter so that Dawn and Chris could share the position of Treasurer.

I'll be curious to learn what the City Manager has to say.
