Know Your District?
[Slightly edited from Peninsula News]
If you live in Point Loma or Ocean Beach, you probably know which City Council District you’re in. (2)
You might know what County District we’re in. But that’s been tricky.
For a long time the northern part of Point Loma and OB was in District 4, and the southern Peninsula was in District 1. (Remember the Ron & Greg Show?)
Well, forget 4 and 1, because now we’re in District 3.
All of us.
That brings us to our State legislature. Do you know what Assembly district we are in? If you said the 78th, you are living in the past. After the most recent census, the 77th District has taken us over.
The State of California funnels crucial funding to San Diego, and our District representative can address specific needs in our Peninsula community. That leads to our final question. Would be good to know who represents us in the State Assembly? Here’s an opportunity…
We hope you will join us on Saturday morning, March 25th, for a casual conversation with our Assemblymember, Tasha Boerner Horvath, at Monsaraz at 1451 Rosecrans.
