He was elected to the L.A. City Council in 2003 defeating Los Angeles School Board member Julie Kornstein in the race to succeed Hal Bernson. At that time he was one of two Republican Party members of the City Council.[7] His former seat was the only Republican seat on the Council before Lee's switch to Independent in 2020.
In his prior service as a Councilman, he made waste management his main issue and was successful in lobbying his colleagues to unanimously pass his comprehensive blueprint for the city, RENEW LA—Recovering Energy, Natural Resources, and Economic Benefit from Waste for Los Angeles.[8]

He holds two degrees from the University of Southern California and a certificate from the University of California, Los Angeles.[10]
