How To Contact Your 2017 Ventura City Councilmembers
To make democracy work, we must be a nation of participants, not simply observers.
—Louis L’Amour
Our federalist system gives us many opportunities to participate in our democracy. Some forms of participation are more common than others. And some citizens participate more than others, but almost everyone has a voice in government.
Meet Your 2017 City Councilmembers
We have a new Ventura City Council for 2017. We have one new Councilmember and six incumbents. Each of them has an email account with the city. Not everyone knows how to contact them, though.
Click On A Councilmembers Photo To Email
Below you’ll find the photos of our current City Council. Click on any Councilmember’s photo and you’ll open your email program ready to write directly to that Councilmember.
Let then know what you’re thinking. Tell them what they’re doing right and what they could improve upon. No matter what you write, however, share your opinion. Not participating in government makes us worse because our city government isn’t working for all of us.

Do you think at this time with all the poor air quality that has been left by the Thomas fire that the city could put a moratorium on wood burning fireplaces? Thank you.
The Ventura County Civic Alliance (Civic Alliance) is part of a collaborative that brings together the Oxnard Union High School District (OUHSD), local governments and business leaders to prepare students for post-graduation by offering school-based and work-based learning focused on career exploration. The Civic Alliance led the collaborative partners through the development and implementation of Summer at City Hall programs in the City of Oxnard (2016), County of Ventura (2017), and City of Camarillo (2018).
