LITTLE ARMENIA-Christina Khanjian was elected to the Griffith Part
Neighborhood Council during Saturday’s local elections, according to
results publicized Tuesday. The Armenian National Committee Hollywood
chapter was instrumental in raising awareness about the election and
encouraging voters to participate.

With 830 votes, Khanjian was the highest vote recipient in District
B of the neighborhood council, which has five electoral districts
and is represented by two people from each district.

Ron Ostrow, who also enjoyed the support of the local Armenian
community, won in the same district with 806 votes.

All candidates who were supported by the Armenian community were
elected. They are: Frank Massi and Mio Vukovic from District A;
Alexander De Ocampo and Harpreet Mahli from District C; Tomas O’Grady
and Leslie Vankeuren from District D; and Jessica Kornberg and Mark
Mauceri from District E.

"As a group, we thank all the candidates, volunteers, and poll workers
for being part of this historic election. Most of all, we thank the
voters who came out in record numbers proving our neighborhood is one
of the most actively engaged in all of Los Angeles. More stakeholders
voted here than in all of the other March 20th council elections
combined, said De Ocampo, the spokesperson of the newly elected
neighborhood council members.

"Many were told our candidates had a ‘Pro-Development / Anti-Park’
agenda and we were committed to having permit parking installed across
the districts. Nothing could be further from the truth," he added.

"As board members, we will work to ensure the council is inclusive,
fair, and open to all stakeholders, regardless of one’s position on
any issue. We invite the community to join in the process and help
make a difference," he explained.

"As an entity, Los Feliz Forward will cease to exist, but as a
philosophy, we believe moving Los Feliz forward should continue
indefinitely," he concluded.
