Stewardship of our natural resources is a top priority for Mike, and after just few months in office, Mike joined with his colleague Paul Koretz to lead one of the most important environmental causes in Los Angeles today – fracking. Mike is committed to water quality issues and he’s focusing both on protecting local water supplies from dangerous drilling, as well as on saving money and the environment by improving the way we use water in LA.
