The Westside Regional Alliance of neighborhood councils will sponsor a CD11 council seat debate 27 February, 6:30 pm at Windward School, 11350 Palms Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90066.

Latest count is that only Councilman Mike Bonin will attend. Neither candidate Mark Ryavec nor Robin Rudisill will be attending. Both Ryavec and Rudisill will be having their own debate 16 February, 7 pm at the University Synagogue in Brentwood, 11960 Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90049.

Mark Ryavec said he had a personal conflict with the date. “In my case, it is a private matter that came up after I told the organizer that generally I was available during February,” he said.

“Once the organizer gave me an exact date, I wrote to her immediately that I did not think I could make it. She proceeded to announce the event even though I had said I had a problem with the date.

So we’re now on for a debate on the 16th in Brentwood.”

So far Rudisill has not had a comment.
