Heather Hutt was appointed today to represent Los Angeles’ 10th Council District. She will be the first woman to represent the 10th District and the first woman to represent South Los Angeles in a decade. The appointment was made as a motion introduced by Los Angeles City Council President Nury Martinez and seconded by Councilmembers Gil Cedillo, Paul Koretz, Mitch O’Farrell, and Kevin de León.
Council President Nury Martinez officially designated Heather Hutt as the Caretaker for Council District 10 on July 20. Martinez made the appointment following the temporary restraining order issued by Superior Court Judge Mary Strobel on July 19, which temporarily prevents Councilmember Herb Wesson from serving as the district representative.
Los Angeles County Sheriff candidate Cecil Rhambo wants voters to know that the cornerstones of his campaign are changing deputy culture and dealing with deputy gangs, prison reform and reentry programs.
