Actually I did email each of the city council members and the mayor for their position on the extension of term limits in raid March. Council members Juan Villegas, Jose Solorio, Vince Sarmiento and Mayor Pro Temp Michele Martinez all responded to me in writing that they do not support the extension of tern limits. David Benavides did respond to me and informed me that there is not community support for the extension of term limits; but he was not specific on his position. I did not get a response from Mayor Pulido, or council member Sal Tinajero. Best, Susana Sandoval On Mon, Apr 30, 2018 at 6:16 PM, Mike Tardif < wrote: That is one of the issues involved Suzie. I would have more confidence if the termed out council members would state unequivocally that there will be no attempt to restart the clock on tern limits. Thus far they they have not done so.

As per Ms. Huizar, once a council member is termed out cannot run for reelection for a city council seat in another district. It is against the City Charter for a council member to run for another council seat once termed out. Now a council member who is termed out can run for the mayor's position, since this is a new position; which we are now witness to with current city council members who will be termed out this year, and are running for the Mayor's position. These are very confusing and chaotic times in our city government and the political arena. So important to get our questions answered, and the correct information. Best, Susana C.
