Greetings!
A sincere wish for a Happy Thanksgiving goes out to you and your loved ones. As a reminder, City of Pacifica offices will be closed for the Thanksgiving Holiday on November 24 and November 25.
Following Thanksgiving holiday, the next City Council meeting is scheduled for Monday, November 28 at 7:00 pm in the City Council Chambers at 2212 Beach Boulevard. The winners of the 3rd Annual Mayors’ Beautification Awards will be announced at the November 28th City Council meeting. This program was created by the Beautification Advisory Committee (BAC) as part of the Keep Pacifica Beautiful Program implemented in the Council-approved
Beautification Plan. It recognizes local businesses and homeowners for improving their properties and doing their part in making Pacifica a more beautiful place. For more information about the Beautification Advisory Committee,

tune in to the meeting via Pacific Coast TV's live stream to hear more.
Please let me know if you have comments or questions, and
thank you for wanting to
Connect with Pacifica!
Best,
LORENZO HINES JR.
