Latest tally in Orange County supervisor race shows Foley capturing 43 77% of the vote

Print With fewer than 500 ballots left to count following Tuesday’s special election for an open seat on the Orange County Board of Supervisors, the final vote tallies for each of five candidates in the race are falling into place. Figures last updated by the Orange County Registrar of Voters showed turnout was higher than anticipated, with about 28% of the 395,296 voters in Supervisorial District 2 casting 110,612 ballots. Of those, nearly 95% were vote-by-mail, while 5,671 constituents visited in-person vote centers, records indicate. While initial returns released Tuesday night showed Costa Mesa Mayor Katrina Foley ahead of the pack with 45% of the vote, her lead over the second highest vote-getter, former state Sen. John Moorlach, had shrunk by Friday evening.

Fundraising off to the races for Newport Beach s new junior lifeguards headquarters

Print The long-awaited headquarters for Newport Beach’s junior lifeguards program may soon arrive on the city’s shores with the unanimous approval of conceptual plans by the Newport Beach City Council. On Tuesday night, the council voted 6-0, with Mayor Pro Tem Kevin Muldoon absent, to approve the conceptual plans for the $4.9 million project just south of Balboa Pier. The conceptual plans expand upon previous plans introduced to elected officials in 2018 and, again, in April 2019. The initial estimated cost of a 4,100-square-foot building was $3.3 million, according to city staff. The new proposal is for an approximately 5,145-square-foot permanent facility in the A Street parking lot south of Balboa Pier.
