Monday, 1/11/2010 update: Today’s Planning Commission agenda is now available online. There’s not much on the agenda other than the county line adjustments described below. Staff is recommending a public hearing be scheduled on that item on 2/8/2010. Also on tonight’s agenda is signage for the new Drug Store going in to office building being remodeled at 3401 Katella, across from Blockbuster.
Click here for the complete agenda.
(1/10/2010, Los Alamitos) If you look at a map, you’ll notice that the County Line between OC and L.A. that supposedly follows Coyote “Creek” doesn’t match the current flood control channel we euphemistically call a creek.
There are 3 specific areas along the Los Al border where the County line is on the wrong side Read more

Scene last April in Fullerton where DUI cost 3 innocent young lives including Angels ace rookie Nick Adenhart. Too high a price for a little extra revenue?
(9/14/09, by Dave Emerson) Los Alamitos city staff is apparently recommending approval of the request for a license to sell beer and wine for off-site consumption by the Shell gas station on Katella at Los Alamitos Bl. I’m not so sure they got that right.
Initially, I was conflicted on this one, but the more I thought about it the clearer the choices became and the stronger my Read more

(9/12/09, Los Alamitos) Even though her editors had her covering the Huntington Beach Council meeting last Tuesday night, Jaime Lynn Fletcher, the Register’s Los Alamitos reporter still managed to get an 800+ word online article on our Council’s recent actions by Friday. A shortened version appeared on Local page 12 in today’s (Saturday) Register.
Fletcher had good quotes from both sides of the dispute. Her subtitle seems to present a fairly accurate summary of the dispute: Read more
