Democratic city councilman David Alvarez is spreading some baseball love in the form of free tickets to a Padres game in the city's Petco Park, says a recent disclosure.
According to a June 4 filing posted online by the city clerk's office, the Fullerton-based law firm of Jones & Mayer is getting 10 free tickets valued at $87.69 each to the June 14 game, featuring a match with the Arizona Diamondbacks.
The disclosure says the ticket gift was made under category 1(6) of the city council's ticket gifting policy, which says the public purpose of such gifts is "Promotion of growth and development, including economic development and job creation opportunities."
Jones & Mayer's motto, posted on its website, says that "The Public Sector is not part of our practice - it IS our practice."
The law firm of Jones & Mayer is devoted to serving public entities throughout California. In that capacity, the firm serves as general counsel to the cities of Blythe, Costa Mesa, Fullerton, Grand Terrace, La Habra, Maywood, South Pasadena, Stanton, Westminster and Whittier, and as General Counsel to the Gateway Cities Council of Governments (COG).
The firm's client list also includes the San Diego Unified Port District.
According to city campaign disclosure data made available online by the city clerk's office, Jones & Mayer’s owner Richard Jones gave a total of $1,000 to Alvarez's 8th district 2010 city council campaign.

We have a call in to Alvarez's city council office, whose voice mail this morning said staff was "currently unavailable to assist you."
We've also left a message for Jones.
