Ursua LB Community College District Board of Trustees Candidacy

Local business owner Stella Ursua officially announced her candidacy, Oct. 24, for the District 3 Board of Trustees seat at the Long Beach Community College District.

Ursua, who has been Long Beach resident for 15 years, is running for Mark Bowen’s seat in the board of trustees.

Ursua says she is running because Long Beach City College needs to be affordable and accessible to all residents and wants to seek opportunities with the Local Control Funding Formula (2013-2014 Budget Act) and from Proposition 39-CA Clean Energy Jobs Act to be utilized to reinvest in college-prep and vocational programs.
