It was a full house or rather full tent of curious residents and local business folks attracted to this early morning event on May 24, 2023 at Los Al’s Little Cottonwood Park. More than the full spread breakfast provided on this day they came to hear, and to be heard, by their local officials on issues and concerns facing Los Alamitos. in the course of an hour (or two) every department head weighed in to a capacity crowd who then had the opportunity to engage city officials one on one. A rare display of direct democracy Los Al (and every other city in Orange County) could use more of.
Good Morning Los Al
