Cindy Montanez, the trailblazing San Fernando politician and environmental advocate who had a local elementary school named in her honor Tuesday, died Saturday, city officials announced.
"It is with inconsolable grief and deep sadness that we announce the passing of Councilmember Cindy Montanez, current CEO of TreePeople, and former California State Assembly Member," San Fernando officials wrote.
The cause of death was not provided, but Montanez was recently diagnosed with aggressive terminal cancer. On Tuesday, the Los Angeles Unified School Board voted unanimously to rename Gridley Street Elementary School in San Fernando to Gridley-Montanez Dual Language Academy.
