Remembering Rob Richardson - CAPPO Member County of Orange
Richardson’s passing marks the end of an era. He was a congenial
fixture in Santa Ana for so many years and also at the County of Orange,
where he was the County Procurement Officer.
He was in charge of all procurement activities for the entire County of
Orange and had about 250 Deputy Purchasing Agents working under him.
Richardson was a Santa Ana City Councilman from 1990-1998. He was
elected a few years after Mayor Miguel Pulido came to power and they
were close allies and friends for years.
In February 2003, Richardson was elected to the Board of Education
following the recall of SAUSD Trustee Nativo Lopez, which made national
headlines. Richards received 65% of the votes cast in that election.
