Brian Dennert here with a history question.
Does anyone know the order of Simi valley mayors or a website that has a list?
I know a few, but if you remember the years ( about) or at least the order, please list them.
UPDATE- Still missing a few mayors! I need this for a special project. Please ask anyone you know to add to the list of former mayors.
Thanks!

Brian,
When I was a kid the Mayor I believe was Ted Grandsen.
The first time I saw Gallegly was when I was a kid in Simi. He was a realtor. He came to my house and came in my garage and asked my Mom to vote for him. After he left my mom looked at me and said, "I'd never vote for that slime ball."
Arleigh,
Ask anyone if they remember the details to the recall if you could.
Did you read the post with the nice things I said about Elton Gallegly?
Brian
Elton who? Elton John?
