Position: District 4

A Final Post Before Election Day

By Tiffany Boccieri, candidate for Laguna Hills City Council, District 4 · Updated November 2, 2026

Keeping District 4's needs clear and in budget

Stratford Ridge traffic - Neighbors tell me cars speed on our streets and ask for speed humps. I support a traffic study that considers them, and installation if the study supports it. Anyone can start a review by contacting the city, including through its Request Tracker, and I will help neighbors meet the policy's requirements.

El Conejo Park - A zipline-type play structure at El Conejo Park is missing its sliding parts. That small repair matters a great deal to a child who came to play and a parent hoping for a breather, and it should not be tolerated. A budgeted renovation is still waiting on a contractor after the council rejected every bid in August. I will ask Public Works to repair the ride now.

Knotty Pine Park - Poor drainage near the northwest play structures at Knotty Pine Park leaves mud families deal with week after week. I will ask Public Works to fix it.

Paying for improvements - At the September 22 council meeting, I heard the Mayor point to public safety's large share of the budget as a reason it is the city's top priority. That share is about 47% of General Fund operating spending. Public safety comes first for me too. A program's share of the budget tells us what we spend today. Deciding what we should keep spending takes a fresh look at results, and skipping that step is the is–ought fallacy. Without raising taxes, every dollar must earn its place, including the $115,000 a year for Flock cameras that I oppose renewing.

These are a few of the fixes I will follow through on for District 4.

Bridging the divide

A resident asked how I would bridge the divide between the far ends of national politics in a seat that is nonpartisan. Look at my campaign materials: I chose fuchsia for two reasons - it is an important color to my family, and it blends red and blue. District 4 is a blended community. I respect residents who hold passionate beliefs at either end of the spectrum, as well as those who consider themselves centrists. Most people want common-sense results, and they are happiest when they believe we are all pulling in the same direction as a community.

Nearly every faith and tradition teaches some version of the golden rule. Even the aspirations of Star Trek, grounded in science and logic, lead with compassion. As a lawyer, I seek the facts and data to make the right call. As a neighbor, I lead with empathy and build community. I pledge to do both for everyone in District 4, whether you voted for me or not.

Before you vote, check the record

If you are still undecided and have not voted, do your own research:

• Who has posted specific, detailed positions, and who speaks in broad slogans?
• Who has accepted endorsements, and who answers only to residents?
• Who says they are ready on day one, and who will be effective on every day after?
• Whose campaign has spent the most, and where did that money come from?

Look past the slogans and believe your own eyes. Every candidate's campaign finance filings are public on the city's Elections page. Through October 17, the last full pre-election report, one campaign in this race reported spending more than the other three combined. Look at the bottom-line numbers and at who contributed. If you want representatives who answer only to residents, those numbers are worth a look.

Thank you

Thank you to everyone who has already voted, and a special thank you to everyone who voted for me. Thank you to my family for supporting me through this campaign, and to the neighbors who helped spread the word about it. And thank you to every resident of Laguna Hills and District 4 for showing up for this important civic duty.
