Three Members of the Current Irvine City Council Are Running for Re-Election This Fall

Eight months before the November 2022 election, three members of the current City Council have opened campaign committees to run for re-election.

With the pandemic still on the minds of many Irvine residents, Councilmember Larry Agran chose to announce his re-election campaign through a substantive video announcement that was posted on Agran’s campaign website and on Facebook.

Agran used the video to recap his long history with the City, outline what he’s been working on, and explain why he has decided to run for re-election in November.

Forgoing a formal announcement, Councilmember Anthony Kuo appears to have quietly opened his 2022 City Council re-election campaign last fall.

Mayor Farrah Khan publicly announced her Mayoral re-election campaign late last year via social media and through an email message sent to supporters.

Irvine Mayor & Council Majority Rejects Plan for a Veterans Memorial Park on the 125-Acre Great Park “ARDA” Site

During the February 8th Irvine City Council meeting, Councilmember Larry Agran outlined his proposal to build a beautiful Veterans Memorial Park on the 125-acre Great Park “ARDA” site.

Agran’s proposal calls for a vast park filled with a forest of trees, walking trails, memorial gardens, reflecting ponds, and an aviation museum to honor the City’s six-decade military history and our local veterans. (A botanical garden is part of Agran’s proposal.)

After nearly an hour of public comments about Agran’s plan — which included unanimous support from veterans — Mayor Khan and Councilmembers Kuo, Kim and Carroll rejected the proposal and voted instead to build a botanical garden on the entire ARDA site.

After the meeting concluded, one veteran who had spoken in support of Agran’s proposal stated: “Mayor Khan and her Council majority have once again betrayed veterans. First, they took away our Veterans Cemetery that we were promised, and now they want to erase any memory of the El Toro Marine base and those of us who served there.”
