Pat Burns talks business at annual Huntington Beach mayor’s breakfast event

Huntington Beach Mayor Pete Burns has repeatedly said that he does not consider himself a politician after taking office in 2022.

For a long time, a police officer and a large family have the attributes of five boys that he feels better.

In fact, his speech was partially anti -government, or at least a larger government at the Senior Center at the Senior Center in Central Park on Wednesday morning.

“We have to stop the rules,” Burns told the audience of more than 100 city government and business leaders. “I am about a small government. I don’t like the government. We’re going to touch anything, and this has been proven over time.

Burns, as mayor, made headlines about three months later in his year long, when he showed President Donald Trump’s desk on the desk on January 21. A month later, the council approved the “mega” plaque in the Central Library to celebrate its 50th birthday.

The mayor’s breakfast was hosted by Huntington Beach Chamber of Commerce. It also included the remarks of Golden West College President Medith Randall. The chairman of the chamber board, Sean Wood, moderated a panel that featured local business owners.

Burns told the mob on Wednesday that it was easy for him to become a police officer, especially because he grew up in a big family and was accustomed to fighting and fighting. As a business owner, with a daily uncertainty, he would face further stress, he said.

He advised business leaders to include the local government with their companies – but also keep it far away.

“No business is clean, no industry is clean from being fooled,” he said. “In the police works, we had his own part of the heads, who had a kind of outcry who had stupid dirty in this work. But still it was more than ours, as fellow police officers, they have to be fooled. And if you know it, you know it, if you know it, if you know it.

If you guys know the bullying business [whose operators] They are not fulfilling their promises or their contracts or anything like this – and most of these things are actually given Evel Fuel by lure – please help us get out of here, get them out of the city or get out of business, because we want the best in Huntington. We want everyone to be presented with integrity and fulfillment of the promises that are made within the agreement or in business decisions.

To make it easier to do business in Huntington Beach, The city recently launched it Streamline Surf City Program. Established in January 2024, it allows people to help seek a new business or seek coordinated help between the departments.

For example, the program was extended to include residential users that are looking for resources for solar panels.

The Mayor Pro Team Casey McCain told the mob that the city was working on installing high -speed fiber internet in the city and surrounding areas.

“I think we are going the right direction, and that means a lot for me,” Burns said. “And as a mayor, contact me without hesitation if you run away in a collision, and I have something that I can do with the corrupt corruptness of the corrupt for Walts. [sic] Government Yes, I not only want to encourage the business to come to the city, but I want to protect the businesses here. So yes, if you guys are having trouble, you should not do it, not from the end of the city. “

The panel was produced by Monovod Coffee Company’s local business leaders, Eliasia Renberger, Express Automoto’s Gary Farham and teachers’ Dean Mendoza.

Renberger, who is a co -owner of Moonwood, opened the company’s store front in 2022 but also helps monitor the growing business of catering. He praised Huntington Beach as a safe city, which offers peace of mind as his company drinks coffee at night in the middle of the morning while ready for morning events.

She said she is worried about the growing costs of packaging, supply and components, but is working to enter the brand in the community.

“I think everyone has some kind of ability that they can return to the community, whether it is serving students or finding out what you have and is helping,” said Renazarger. “It’s about our youth, adding them, connecting them and dreaming them again.

Mendoza is also a co -owner of his business, a publishing company that has been in Huntington Beach for about 50 years. He said he recently worked to upgrade the goods with the city.

“I think this is our great responsibility as a city to enhance each other’s business,” he said. “I really try to know more and more. I think we are a great chair leader for each other, and to increase other businesses that do not come from business is the best marketing that we can get.
