Forty years dealing with business issues. Five years at nearly every city council meeting. Retired, with the hours to do this full time.

Election Day November 3, 2026

Campaign lines

City government can’t run on vibes. It runs on homework.

So ask about Ojai. He reads every card himself.

The platform

Three commitments.

Every dollar spent on one priority is unavailable for another.

  • A budget anyone can read: who gets what, and why.
  • Agendas posted early enough to make the paper before the meeting.
  • Three questions asked out loud before every vote.

Before every vote, out loud

  1. What problem are we solving?
  2. What are the facts and data?
  3. What will it cost Ojai in five, ten, and twenty years?

Advocate for District 2

About Larry

Forty years in real estate. An MBA to back it up.

For me, a seat on the city council is an opportunity to be of service, and to give back forty years of business experience.

I’m already retired. I’m up at six most mornings and busy until late, and I have the capacity and the desire to treat this like a full-time job.
