Are you ready to have a say in the future of our community?

The Coastside Civic Engagement group invites you to an evening of lively discussion and learning at the GCSD (Granada Community Services District) Candidate Forum with four candidates vying for two open seats in this important local election.

  • Date: Wednesday, October 9th, 2024
  • Time: 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM
  • Location: Jettywave, El Granada (Princeton Harbor at 155 Broadway)

The forum was hosted by KHMB‘s Reuben Truthmaker who is also the host for the Coastside’s only live, call-in talk radio show, Coastal Windage.

This event was an informative and engaging experience. You will hear directly from the candidates, learn about their positions and hear how the audience asked their pressing questions.

But that’s not all! The evening also provided a chance to explore the many ways you can get involved in local government.

The meeting has been recorded and posted on Coastside Buzz’s Elections 2024 webpages.
