City Councilwoman Nury Martinez's resignation set off speculation about who will next represent District 6 in the San Fernando Valley.
Before last week, Los Angeles City Councilwoman Nury Martinez oversaw a mid-San Fernando Valley district facing myriad issues, including homelessness, major transportation plans and the 2028 Olympics.
Montañez, a former state Assemblywoman, didn’t definitively rule out a run but indicated that she’s happy in her San Fernando seat and as chief executive of the environmental nonprofit Tree People. “I want to support someone really good,” she said. “Someone who is committed to the community and not in it just for their political career.”Community members and political consultants are also talking about Assemblywoman Luz Rivas for the district seat, Montañez said.
Martinez herself was first elected in a special election in 2013 after Cardenas won his congressional seat. The line will run north-south from Van Nuys to San Fernando with 14 stops along the way, including at the Van Nuys Civic Center and in Panorama City, Arleta and Pacoima.
