Ventura County Treasurer-Tax Collector Steven Hintz has announced via email to his Treasurer-Tax Collector staff the following:
I will not run for re-election as Ventura County’s Treasurer-Tax Collector. I intend to serve out the balance of my current term of office, completing 51 years of public service. The trip from being a Lieutenant in the Navy Judge Advocate General’s Corps, to a deputy district attorney for Ventura County, to a judge of the Municipal Court and later the Superior Court, and finally to this position, has been a richly rewarding professional life.
