For Council District 1 voters, that means picking Joe Bray-Ali for City Council on March 7. Many people in the district think of Bray-Ali, 37, as just a bike-shop owner and bike activist. Bray-Ali, a small business owner and community activist who lives in Lincoln Heights, would best lead this district and the city into a better future. Building more housing is a virtue — the city is in a housing crunch, and more market-rate housing means more housing, period. The candidate who is best prepared to do that for Council District 1 is Bray-Ali.
