    LOS ANGELES - Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa appointed Oshin Harootoonian
    to serve on the North Valley Area Planning Commission. On Tuesday,
    July 26 the City Council confirmed his appointment.

    "An engineer and Valley entrepreneur, Oshin brings years of management
    experience and a wealth of knowledge on construction projects within
    the City," Mayor Villaraigosa said. "His strong business acumen and
    technical expertise will be important assets to the North Valley Area
    Planning Commission."

    Harootoonian is the founder and CEO of Primex Clinical Laboratories,
    Inc., a clinical diagnostic laboratory based in Van Nuys. Since its
    founding in 1996, Primex has grown from a small business of five
    employees into a global company with over 200 employees.

    Before founding Primex, Harootoonian worked for the City of Beverly
    Hills as a Senior Plan Review Engineer. Prior to this, he served
    as a Plan Check Engineer for the City of Los Angeles where he
    was responsible for issuing permits for construction projects and
    reviewed all building plans for structural safety and compliance
    with city zoning requirements. He helped establish the West Valley
    Permit Office during the 1994 Northridge Earthquake to accommodate
    the reconstruction permit needs of residents.

    Harootoonian maintains strong ties with the Armenian community. He is a
    board member of the Armenian General Athletic Union and served as board
    member of the Armenian National Committee of America from 1992-2005.

    Harootoonian is a Registered and Licensed Professional Engineer in the
    State of California. He received a B.S. and M.S. in civil engineering
    from the University of Southern California.
