Welcome!
Dear Neighbor,
Thank you to everyone who supported my campaign for El Segundo City Council in the election
held Tuesday, April 10, 2012. I am sure by now you know the final results of the election that
brought us a new Mayor and Council majority. While I am disappointed that I did not win a seat
on our City Council, I am proud as an independent candidate to have placed a strong fourth out
of eight candidates in this highly competitive and contentious election. Congratulations to the
three winners of the City Council race and I wish them well in leading our city.
Sadly, with the results of this election and the installation of our new (former) Mayor, I believe
our city has taken a major step backward and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future
which I feel is very unfortunate. It is my hope that the issues discussed in this election will be
appropriately addressed and not forgotten, including Chevron’s fair tax burden, restoring the
Plunge and addressing our city’s aging infrastructure needs, and keeping El Segundo business
friendly. I and many others will be closely watching the actions of our new Council hoping they
will do the right thing.
I want to thank those who supported me, donated their time and financial resources, and helped
me run an effective grassroots campaign focused on the issues that matter to our residents. My
campaign was always positive and professional, and I am proud of that. I will continue my
service on our City’s Capital Improvement Program Advisory Committee (CIPAC), as a member
of the Board of Directors of the Tree Musketeers, and with other organizations in town as well as
re-focus my energies on causes I am firmly committed to.
You may continue to reach me by e-mail at info@scotthouston.org. I look forward to seeing you
in the community.
Yours in service,
Scott Houston
