In 2002 I bought a home in Valley Glen on Ranchito Avenue, where I resided for 12 years. I have so many fond memories of my neighborhood that now, as a Realtor, I specifically work to serve and represent my former neighbors. It is a special area for me. I had to move out because my elderly mother moved in with me, so I needed a larger home. I hope one day to move back. Until that time, it's my strong desire to give back to the community I loved so well.

I've owned my home in Valley Glen for over 30 years and with my wife Bettylou raised my two sons in this neighborhood, I have a vested interest in keeping our area the quaint, single family community we want to maintain. I am highly qualified to represent my community. As host of the 3 time EMMY winning series Between the Lines on PBS I comfortably deal and connect with all types of people from celebrities to politicians to business professionals. I’m also the Producer/Director for L.A. PBS station KLCS-TV, I own my own Production company, and I'm Chairman of the Board of LA City Channel 36. I'm also very proud to be a recipient of the 2019 Ellis Island Medal of Honor. Past medalists include seven U.S. presidents, world leaders, Nobel Prize winners and countless leaders of industry, education, the arts, government, who made freedom, liberty and compassion a part of their life's work. I look forward to representing this great community. Thank you for this opportunity

As a home owner in the Greater Valley Glen I have taken an even greater interest in becoming more involved in my community. My goal is to bring the neighborhood closer together and be more involved with decisions that impact our neighborhood.

Joseph Barmettler (District 4 Representative): I have served on the GVGC board for the past two years and I look forward to another term. I have lived in Valley Glen for 18 years and have found it to be a terrific civic engagement experience. Working on the Government Relations committee, I have made many trips to city hall for Neighborhood Council related events and to represent GVGC stakeholders before city government regarding board approved Community Impact Statements (CIS). I am also the GVGC rep to the Valley Alliance of Neighborhood Councils (VANC). My election campaign supports continuous community and legislative efforts for the "Save the Tree Canopy" movement in L.A., the fight against Senate Bill SB-50, and continued support for Greater Valley Glen stakeholders.

I have lived in the Laurel Grove neighborhood since 2003. Over time, I have grown increasingly concerned about traffic safety for our community. I would use my seat on the council to advocate for an additional pedestrian crosswalk or traffic signal between Whitsett and Laurel Canyon on Oxnard, and a DASH route linking the Orange Line with major shopping plazas in our district including the upcoming NoHo West Development. In addition, I would investigate ways to expand community programming at Valley College and also Valley Glen and Laurel Grove parks. Our neighborhood has the potential to grow significantly in the next few years, and I would work to ensure we continue to maintain and enhance our parks, trees and public spaces as a precious resource for all community members. In order for Greater Valley Glen to thrive, we must have meaningful relationships with all City Departments to ensure our needs are being met.
