Councilwoman Elected to League of Cities Board
Long Beach Councilwoman Jenny Oropeza has been elected to the National League of Cities Board of Directors.
Oropeza was the only Californian elected to the 48-member board after a competitive nomination process last week at the league’s annual conference in Philadelphia.
“The National League of Cities will be the voice of the nation’s cities in the coming century,” Oropeza said. “I am honored and enthusiastic about the opportunity to represent the interests of Long Beach.”
“I am pleased that Jenny will be doing this important work on our behalf,” Mayor Beverly O’Neill said. “It is key to our city’s future that we in Long Beach continue playing a leadership role at the national level.”
