Conchas Returns to Council Seat

Jose Conchas Jr. is back on the Glendale City Council after a court ruled his removal was illegal, declaring that a per diem from the SRP Board doesn’t count as a salary — so he’s eligible to serve. The council had voted 4-3 to oust him, citing his dual role, but the judge found that decision flawed. Conchas, who’s waived his per diem to show he’s not in it for the money, says he’s focused on representing Cactus District residents and pushing for public safety, infrastructure, and lower rates. He credits the court’s decision as a victory for democracy and vows to keep fighting for the people — reminding everyone that power belongs to them.
