In his last four years, Jim has been involved in a large-scale environmental measure for Manhattan Beach and its residents: installation of three Centrifugal Filter Systems drains, to divert storm water runoff from our beaches. Jim never forgets that his political endeavors are rooted in his interest in the environment, which motivated his activism in the early 90's.

As a surfer, Jim has been quite active in finding ways to keep the ocean and beaches clean -- including passage of the 2004 Smoking Ban (aimed at decreasing litter) and through his involvement as a Director of VOICE and as a member of the National League of Cities Energy, Environment and Natural Resources Committee.

After Jim was elected to Council four years ago, he helped to decrease the originally proposed Metlox development by 60%. With the new underground parking structure in place to help alleviate traffic, Jim believes the development will help to enhance the vibrance of downtown Manhattan Beach, while still maintaining the town's "small town" charm.
