About Ed Rakochy

             
 

I am a 17-year Yorba Linda resident who is actively involved in giving back to our community.
 

 

City Government

     
 

For the past eight years I have regularly attended City Council meetings where I have always been a strong advocate for our “low-density” atmosphere, integrity and ethics in government and fiscal responsibility. When it comes to these issues, my actions speak louder than words.
 

 

Yorba Linda Residents for Responsible Representation (YLRRR)

     
  One of the founding members.
  Worked with other concerned citizens to stop the overdevelopment
    of our downtown with a referendum on the Town Center zoning.
  Pressured the City Council to end the threat of eminent domain in
    the Town Center.
  Helped architect Measure B, the Right to Vote initiative which
    protects our City from future overdevelopment.
  Helped elect “people’s” advocates to the City Council.
  Publicly opposed the City’s proposed increases to landscape &
    lighting fees and the City Manager’s outrageously high salary & benefits ($301,000).
     
 

Town Center Blue Ribbon Committee

     
  Collaborated with other community leaders to identify needs and
    concerns and develop consensus-driven recommendations for our Town Center
     
 

Youth Sports

     
    I have been raising my son in Yorba Linda for the past 17 years and we have enjoyed playing and participating in many of the great youth sports programs offered by private organizations and the Parks & Recreation Department.
