Zeanah Slighted for Mayor Pro Tem
- Share via
As a longtime Thousand Oaks resident and City Council watcher, I am in disbelief at the outrageous display of arrogance and hostility by Judy Lazar and Andy Fox in passing over Elois Zeanah for mayor pro tem. All of us should ask why.
Zeanah is the beacon of our community. She consistently works for and stands up for residents’ rights. But Fox and Lazar apparently feel that they must discredit and silence Zeanah to protect their majority control. The November election results showed that the council majority is skating on thin ice that is beginning to break. This is the reason they passed over Zeanah in favor of Councilman Mike Markey.
Once again, their uncivil behavior and lack of leadership are another blow to community standards and expectations.
