    Zareh Sinanyan

    GLENDALE-Longtime community leader and activist, attorney Zareh
    Sinanyan, on Thursday announced his candidacy for Glendale City
    Council. The election will be held on Tuesday, April 2.

    "I have finally done it and thrown my hat into the race," Sinanyan
    said in a letter to constituents on Thursday. "I believe the time
    is right to step up and provide the kind of leadership that Glendale
    deserves. With your support we can bring positive change to our city."

    Sinanyan has been an active force in the City of Glendale for a
    long time. He served on the Glendale Parks, Recreation and Community
    Services Commission and more recently as chairman of the Community
    Development Block Grant Advisory Committee from 2009 to 2011.

    He has been an active presence in Glendale community organizing
    efforts, advocating for citizens' rights and empowering people to
    register and vote to become an active part in city decisions.

    "My continued dedication to public service has been constant
    and never predicated on position or title but on the needs of the
    community. At this time Glendale needs a councilmember who believes
    in the fundamental principles of effective government, transparency
    and accessibility, with a clear vision of Glendale's future. The need
    for good leadership is especially felt in these difficult financial
    times," said Sinanyan.

    While chairing the CDBG, Sinanyan has become known as a consensus
    builder, working to ensure that the ever-decreasing funds are properly
    allocated to the programs and groups with the highest demonstrated
    need and most efficient use of such resources. His involvement in the
    various aspects of Glendale life has also made him acutely aware of
    the needs of the community in term of services and governance.

    "As councilmember I will work hard to advance and improve the
    business climate in the City, advocate for easier accessibility
    and more government transparency, improve traffic and congestion in
    the Glendale, and relentlessly promote an exceptional environment in
    which to raise our children and watch our families grow and prosper,"
    said Sinanyan.

    prosperous future, one that is worthy of our ideals and values."
