With a 23 percentage point lead in the vote count the day after the Nov. 3 election, it appears La Jolla resident Joe LaCava will win the San Diego City Council seat representing District 1. He says he’s ready to get to work.
Guided by the words of environmental innovator Hal Harvey, “Respect science, respect nature, respect each other,” LaCava said he would focus on working with his council colleagues, being responsive to his district and “getting things done.”
He began by expressing his gratitude to his immediate family members for their support, his “immigrant parents” for instilling values of hard work in him, Bry for providing a smooth transition, the departing council members and mayor and the residents of District 1.
