Bob Huber is a well respected local businessman and an active member of the Simi Valley community. He’s also running for Simi Valley mayor. I’ve asked both candidates a series of questions, both of whom have now responded. It’s important to note that Bob Huber has requested to meet with me in person to answer questions face to face, but our schedules have not yet lined up. Bob was generous enough to submit his answers to me before a meeting took place, and I sincerely thank him for that — his preference was to meet me before submitting responses.

Skatelab continues to be a great resource for our youth, here in Simi Valley. As a father, I am very proud of the efforts my son has made to create an environment that fosters sportsmanship, camaraderie, and of course, some amazing feats of physical prowess!

Visit the Annual Simi Valley Street Fair sponsored by the Simi Valley Chamber of Commerce on May 8th, 2010. You can meet Bob to discuss the things that are important to you for the future of Simi Valley. Bob will be in the Huber For Mayor booth between 9am and 4pm; stop by to experience leadership that listens!

I was perplexed by Council member Barbra Williamson’s quote on Steve Sojka’s candidacy for Simi Valley mayor (Simi Valley Acorn, March 29).

Barbra said the mayor shouldn’t be a “relic” and should be “between the ages of 45-54.”

I’m taking an educated guess here, but I’m pretty sure Barbra is over the end of that age range.

Does that mean she is a relic herself and will be stepping down? Does that mean Paul Miller should have never run for mayor in the first place? Where I come from this is age discrimination. I don’t believe in any kind of discrimination.

Barbra Williamson inferred at the mayor kickoff for her dear friend Steve Sojka that Bob Huber is a “relic from the past.” Curious, I went to Bob Huber’s website to verify for myself.

Well, Barbra, there is more to our city than just our city politicians.

By Williamson’s comments, anyone not currently on the City Council is irrelevant. That’s just balderdash and the people of our city know that.
