Coyote Attacks in Torrance California

Coyotes can't stay in our neighborhoods. They have killed hundreds of pets, and have altered our peaceful way of life.  I have friends that will no longer go for a walk in the park. People that will not let their children play in the backyard. Residents that boarded up their pet doors. It's time to take drastic steps towards eliminating the threat.  Public safety is more important than being forced to co-exist with Coyotes. Our city has the right to trap.  So why are we being forced to co-exist.  Let's not wait until something horrible happens.  I fully understand the argument about wildlife protection, and they were here before us, etc.  But, we have a responsibility towards the safety of our residents and businesses.  We can't be held hostage inside our own homes.  Coyotes reproduce quickly and in large number, and without any know predator in nature, they will eventually become so many in numbers, that humans will also be on the menu.  We already have reports of young children being attacked and dragged away from their parents in the Los Angeles area. Enough is enough.

From an article:
“It was a child, about approximately 2 years old, was in the garage. They opened the garage up and the coyote came in and actually got the child on the neck area and part of the cheek,” California Department of Fish and Wildlife Lt. Kent Smirl told ABC’s Los Angeles station KABC.

Candidate to Take Care of Torrance Business

Torrance City Council Candidate Aurelio Mattucci is ready to take office and take charge. His plan for the business development of Torrance includes bringing in new business and supporting the small or large businesses already here. 

Mattucci is a man who personally gets involved with helping the community and listening to business owners. He founded a non-profit all volunteer organization, The Mattucci Project, that is dedicated to beautifying Torrance, one lot at a time. The Mattucci Project volunteers, Aurelio included, go to homes or businesses in need to clear away trash, weeds, debris, to trim overgrowth and generally improve the appearance of the property. 

In addition to literally getting his hands dirty with unglamorous hard work, Aurelio Mattucci has taken the time to get to know his neighbors and fellow businesspeople. Over the past 3 years he has visited over 3,800 businesses to hear individual needs and concerns, asking “What would you like improved in the city?” He heard every answer and is committed to addressing all those concerns when elected to Torrance City Council.

Supporting business, improving curb appeal, protecting families and being responsible with budgeting are high priority issues for Aurelio Mattucci, just as these are important to all those who live, work or play in the City of Torrance, California.

Torrance City Council Candidate Who Cares

Torrance voters looking for the city council candidate with their best interests in mind should take a look at Aurelio Mattucci.  Click on his Candidate Statement to hear Aurelio outline his priorities and concerns for the City of Torrance that he calls home.

Mattucci is a local small businessman and father with long term ties to Torrance. He is not a career politician or political insider. His focus for the future of Torrance is on public safety, education, responsible, prioritized budgeting and maintaining the beauty and curb appeal of the city.

In Aurelio Mattucci's video speech, he is articulate, intelligent and passionate. Clearly a devoted family man, Mattucci presents a trustworthy demeanor and positive attitude that is reassuring and appealing. Mattucci believes in getting personally involved and has met with over 3,800 business owners and thousands more residents over the past three years. With his volunteer organization, The Mattucci Project, Aurelio has personally done the work to haul away 10 tons of trash and weeds from local businesses and residences in need.

Mattucci Gets Serious About Taking Care of Torrance

Torrance City Council candidate Aurelio Mattucci has always been a hands on individual willing to take action. One of Mattucci’s campaign concerns is the “curb appeal” of Torrance and working to preserve and promote the beauty of our South Bay city. According to a recent statement on his campaign website, Mattucci is even ready to repave neglected streets with his own two hands.

“If elected I will push for a plan that would take care of the most effected areas first. The areas that have been abandoned by City Hall will get their streets repaved if I have to go out and shovel tar myself.” wrote Mattucci. Chances are, he means it.

For the past three years, Aurelio has spearheaded The Mattucci Project, an all volunteer organization that cleans up yards and sidewalks for homes or businesses that are unable to do so. The Mattucci Project volunteers clear away brush and debris, trim overgrowth, pull weeds and cart away trash. With a focus on locations where the owner is financially or physically incapable of managing a property’s maintenance alone, the Mattucci Project will provide their invaluable time and energy to anyone in need.  

Mattucci is taking City Hall to task on this issue of caring for our streets, calling for an end to the “5 year plan” excuse. “No more empty promises,” says Mattucci, “…stop telling us, ‘There's No Money’. The money is there if we use our money on PRIORITIES. If you want things to change, the voters need to cut the chains that connect us to current and past administrations and get off to a fresh start.” Mattucci pledges to be a “hands on candidate that will get things done.” Given that he already has a proven track record of not being afraid to do the actual dirty work himself, voters can believe that when Mattucci says he will get something done, it gets done.

The Best Candidate for Torrance City Council

Many concerned Torrance voters are probably asking, “Who should I vote for in the June 3rd Torrance election?” “What are the most important qualities in an outstanding City Councilperson?” Given recent abuses of power in nearby cities like Bell, one major concern when electing any city official is, “Do they have the city’s best interests at heart?” “How will my city councilperson handle the financial responsibility?”

For one Torrance City Council candidate, responsible budgeting practices is a huge priority.  Aurelio Mattucci believes in a conservative approach to spending that prioritizes necessity over popularity. With an eye on the future impact of today’s budgeting decisions, Mattucci will “make sure the tax payers are also in the decision process and not unilaterally make decisions that benefit a few and burden all.” 

Responsible budgeting also falls in line with Mattucci’s additional concerns of public safety, education and maintaining the beauty of Torrance. When all of these areas are well managed, Mattucci hopes that new businesses will be attracted to set up shop in Torrance and that the businesses already here will have the opportunity to thrive and not just survive. He has created a significant business plan to support local business interests and promote prosperity.

By focusing spending on the police department to keep our families safe, on our schools to ensure our children have the best advantages for a successful future and helping businesses to become and stay successful here, Torrance City Council candidate Aurelio Mattucci is the candidate who will really take care of Torrance's needs.

Vote for Torrance City Council

Torrance, California is an ideal community to raise a safe, healthy, happy family. No one knows this better than City Council candidate Aurelio Mattucci. His family planted his Southern California roots by moving here when he was just six years old. Mattucci is now further strengthening those roots by raising his own children here in Torrance.

It’s clear to see that strong family ties are important to Aurelio Mattucci just by looking at what he stands for.  Public Safety and Education are at the top of Mattucci’s list of priorities for improving and maintaining the quality of life in Torrance.

“If we can't feel safe in our own neighborhoods we will live in fear.  I am a strong supporter of our local Police Department and I will always strive to insure the safety of our community,” Mattucci says on his campaign website. He also advocates for community involvement, with neighbors getting involved to look out for each other to prevent crime before it happens and landlords stepping up to provide well-lit and secure properties.

It could be argued that the very first step in preventing crime begins with a strong education in a safe and effective school. Mattucci is a strong proponent of community involvement in the Torrance Unified School District as well to work toward the goal of having the best possible schools for our children.  When elected, Mattucci plans to promote more programs for kids and parents and making sure that taxpayers have a say in where there money gets allocated. Furthering community involvement, Mattucci recommends community volunteerism and private sponsorships.  Mattucci believes parents should be able to pick up a paintbrush to improve a classroom and approved companies should be able to donate for improvement and construction projects as corporate benefactors.

For candidate Aurelio Mattucci, he’s not seeking election for personal gain. For him, it’s about getting his hands in the soil to tend to the roots of the city as a whole, providing a beautiful and rewarding life for all families and businesses. There is real action behind his words which can be seen through his all-volunteer organization, The Mattucci Project, which comes to residences or businesses in need to remove trash, debris and weeds, trim overgrowth and offer educational resources for those who may be struggling to maintain a property. 

These are just a few reasons why Aurelio Mattucci is the right choice for Torrance City Council. 

Who Can Keep Big Business from Bailing?

By now most Torrance residents have probably heard the bad news. Toyota is packing up and moving to Texas, taking upwards of 5,000 jobs with them. There is no official word yet on how many workers will be asked to relocate or possibly be laid off although some reports have said 3,000 jobs are moving to the company’s planned new headquarters in Suburban Dallas. The complete departure will not happen overnight and will take several years to fully execute. Although it’s a blow to Southern California, the move makes perfect sense for the international auto-maker.

When Toyota first set up shop in the U.S. in the early 1950s, California was the perfect location. Being a coastal city on the Pacific Ocean, Torrance and So-Cal were the closest ports to Japan. Shipping cars and parts the shortest distance for U.S. distribution was a logical business choice. Today, however, Toyota has manufacturing plants in Mississippi, Kentucky and Texas. There is no longer the same need for major importing and being headquartered close to manufacturing is basically a no-brainer. In addition, Texas offers things California doesn’t - tax breaks, less regulation and a cheaper, easier place to do business.

According to Torrance Mayor, Frank Scotto, both New York state and Texas have actively pursued major California corporations through significant financial incentives for relocation.

"When any major corporation is courted by another state, it's very difficult to combat that," Scotto said after Monday's surprise announcement of the move. "We don't have the tools we need to keep major corporations here.” Workers' compensation and liability insurance are just some of the expenses businesses must bear that are higher in California.

"A company can easily see where it would benefit by relocating someplace else," Scotto said.

So, where does this leave Torrance in the future? The upcoming June election now carries more weight than ever, with the need to place forward thinking pro-business (large and small) candidates in office. City Council candidate Aurelio Mattucci is one candidate who has his eye on this issue with plans to keep businesses in Torrance and to foster new opportunities for economic growth.

“We need to fill up our commercial vacancies by offering new businesses true incentives and help out our many existing and loyal small businesses succeed and not just survive. We need to be a truly business friendly city and not just say we are. We also need to streamline permits and plan check process to encourage new growth,” says Mattucci.

With the largest employer in the city pulling up roots, having city leadership that is focused on planting them is more important than ever. Learn more about City Council candidate Aurelio Mattucci at www.VoteforMattucci.com.

Voter Registration Available Until May 19

It’s not too late to register to vote for the June 3rd election day.  The deadline to register is May 19, 2014 and can be done on-line or by mail. There are many easy ways to register. Voter registration forms are available at local libraries and post offices or call 1-800-345-8783 to have one mailed to you. Registration forms submitted by mail must be postmarked by May 19. Register online at www.registertovote.ca.gov.

The June 3rd election is an important one for Californians. Local elections, such as for Torrance City Council and Mayor, will be held as well as primaries for the offices representing the entire state.

Primaries will be held for:
* Governor
* Lieutenant Governor
* Secretary of State
* Controller
* Treasurer
* Attorney General
* Insurance Commissioner
* Superintendent of Public Instruction
* Representatives for U.S. Congress
* State Senator (even numbered districts)
* State Assembly
* State Board of Equalization

Many voters may not be aware of new changes to the way California primaries now work. In 2012, California adopted a “Top Two” system. The main change from the previous system is that the candidates with the two highest number of votes will advance to run against each other in November. This can mean that the final two winners may even be from the same party. Voters will see all candidates for office and are able to select any candidate no matter what their political party affiliation.

June’s ballot will also include two propositions, 41 and 42. Proposition 41 “Bonds for Veterans’ Housing and Homeless Prevention” would allow the state to sell state bonds to pay for housing for low-income or homeless veterans. The fund from bond sales would go toward affordable multi-family residences and apartment complexes, which would include support programs and services.  Proposition 42 “Public Records. Open Meetings. State and Local Governments.” would shift the responsibility of paying for complying with the Public Records Act to local governments. It would also add requiring local governments to obey the Public Records and Brown Act to the California Constitution.

What ARE the Responsibilities of a Torrance City Council Member?

What does the Torrance City Council do and how does its work affect you?

As a Charter City, Torrance is governed by a Council/Manager form of government. The City Council consists of the Mayor and six City Council members. The Mayor and Council members are elected at large by registered voters of the City and each serve a four-year term. Elections are held every two years, on the even year.

Unlike some cities, such as Los Angeles, that have three or more or even no term limits, the City of Torrance has a two term limit for Council and Mayoral positions. Setting these kinds of term limits is one effective way to prevent corruption and stagnation due to career politicians holding office for decades or more.  With an eight year total for a single position, Torrance voters are able to ensure that their elected representatives, such as City Council candidate Aurelio Mattucci, will truly hold the best interests of the city and its residents at the forefront of the decision making process. Mattucci is a shining example of a long-term resident who deeply cares about his home town and its future.

In this type of Council/Manager form of government, the City Council carries a number of significant responsibilities that directly affect residents. They are responsible for:

• Adopting Legislation 
• Setting Policy 
• Adjudicating Issues 
• Establishing the Budget of the City. 

One of the Council’s most important duties is creating and managing the City’s budget, which is also one of the primary issues Aurelio Mattucci stands for.  Mattucci is concerned with planning a budget with a mind for the future because, “years from now we will have to deal with the decisions of today.”  When elected, he will take a conservative approach to spending, prioritizing expenditures by “necessity not popularity.”

Other functions of The City Council are to appoint the City Manager and City Attorney. The City Manager acts as the administering head of the government and works closely with the Council to implement policy and laws. In the capacity of their offices, Council members and the Mayor may serve as representatives on intergovernmental and regional boards, commissions and committees. The Council will also appoint volunteers to serve on various advisory boards, commissions and committees. 

In a spirit of transparency and accountability, Council members and the Mayor are directly accountable to the electorate. In their work, they must constantly weigh the interests of individuals and groups with the needs of the entire community. For a candidate like Aurelio Mattucci, that is just what he plans to do when serving the city of Torrance that he has loved for over 30 years.

The Council meets every Tuesday in the Council Chamber at City Hall, 3031 Torrance Boulevard, unless specifically adjourned to another time or place. Regular business generally starts at 7:00 p.m., unless otherwise publicly noticed.  Closed door Executive Sessions may occasionally convene, as authorized under the Ralph M. Brown Act, at 5:30 p.m.
