    Mark Your Calendar for This Important Event!

    Dear Neighbor,

    On Tuesday, March 8, from 7 to 8 pm, on the third floor of Cerritos Library, there will be an important and informative speech by Mrs. Carolyn Cavecche, President and CEO of the Orange County Taxpayers’ Association.

    Mrs. Cavecche served for many years as Mayor and City Council member of Anaheim. The OCTA organization under her leadership has been instrumental in protecting the rights of taxpayers and homeowners of Orange County. The positions of OCTA on various ballot initiatives, including school bond measures, are powerful persuaders of OC voters.

    At a time when ABC School District is actively trying to issue a new school bond measure to raise funds for its aging facilities, it is very important to hear Mrs. Cavecche’s insight on how to hold our elected officials accountable and how to work with them on issues such as school facility renovations in a way that benefits everyone in our community.

    Tuesday’s event is hosted by the Cerritos Republican Club. We strongly encourage you to participate. See you all there.

    Best regards,
    United Homeowners Alliance
    A Community Organization

  • Reagan Country says:

    Mr. Hews:

    It doesn’t appear that the Republicans in Cerritos reflects the true ideology of the party or its membership. Take for example Chen, Barrows, Edwards, Ray, etc. These are individuals whom seem to better fit the description of a “tax and spend liberal.”

    Real Republicans are against most taxes.

    Real Republicans would not spend tax dollars on pork like the CCPA, or power plant, nor do they give tax dollars to multi-millionaire business owners disguised as redevelopment

    Let’s not forget, it was only 2.5 years ago one Republican council member is quoted as saying, “The worst that could happen is that we go bankrupt.” This is while Republicans controlled the city’s spending for years.

    When you think Republican think of Reagan and the Shiny City on a Hill.

    When you think of the Republicans running Cerritos think of the cow manure that once covered the city and mess it made if you stepped in it.

  • CERRITOS – Two new pieces of artwork were recently installed in the Cerritos Sculpture Garden as part of a temporary sculpture display program. This took over 2+ yrs to complete. Somewhat saddened by the 2 pieces which were chosen, not anything near the caliber of the existing stock. FAC took too long in going out to bid, as worked on this over 2 seated FAC.

    “Flame” by Lyle London and “Joker” by Jeff Zischke will be displayed for two years, after which they will be replaced by two new pieces.

    London’s “Flame” features an aluminum base and is composed of painted fiberglass. The paint has a metallic sheen that reflects various colors as the ambient lighting changes. The structure stands 10 feet tall and has a 6-foot base. Zischke’s “Joker” stands 8 feet tall on a 4×4-feet base.

    The contemporary abstract sculpture is fabricated in steel and painted with a high-gloss red paint.

    Each artist will receive a $2,500 stipend, which is funded through Cerritos’s Art in Public Places Program. The fund is supported by contributions from the business community as part of the city’s development requirements.

    The sculpture selections were recommended by the city’s Fine Arts and Historical Commission and reviewed and approved by the City Council.

    Walked the sculpture garden on same nite as the Neighborhood Watch Group, held its meeting at Cerritos Park East, still many lights non working in the garden. Lights have been non working for many yrs.

  • Bus Trip says:

    The hillsides around the Reagan Museum, reminded me of the countryside in Ireland, green green hillsides. The hills could’ve been any Greener.

    Disappointed when the bus merge upon the hillside, the Ronald Reagan Museum Monument sign displayed neglect, bare dirt, and very few flower arrangements at the base for Nancy.

    Upon entering the museum, main foyer, most disappointing to see the cheap vinyl flooring, Museum of this caliber should have a wood plank floor or marble.

    The room where Nancy Laid for public display, again disappointing there was not very many flower arrangements placed. For such a joyous celebration of life, not expecting a Pasadena Rose Parade, But expecting more flowers then this. They serviced both California and USA.

    The pastoral views surrounding this Museum are out of this world. Both Nancy and Ronald chose a fantastic location for the museum, just wondering how many years or decades will pass before the museum is surrounded by the urban crawl from cities of Los Angeles housing .

    Definitely a plus, Huge Chamber welcome, everybody in Los Angeles and Southern California should at least see this Museum once in their lives. It still has a ways to go, to meet the standards of Richard Nixon’s Museum in Yorba Linda. California is very fortunate to be a state where there is a couple of presidents museums. They are priceless.
