We Are Meeting In-Person and On-Line!

Our January Meeting worked fairly well with only a few hiccups!  Our February 20, 2025 General Meeting will be a hybrid meeting. The meeting will be held at the Temple Beth Torah Synagogue at 7620 Foothill Rd in Ventura at 7:00 pm. (The temple is located at the corner of Kimball and Foothill.) You will also be able to login on Zoom using this link:

The City has made a significant design change to the Santa Paula Branch Line Trail alignment within the EVCC boundaries. Breanne Dunn will be joining us to share about the positive changes and answer questions and/or concerns that arise.

Holiday Firework Monitoring

In our July meeting, Commander Weeks discussed the effort to monitor illegal fireworks using drone technology.  The results are still being evaluated, but there were 10 administrative citations handed out.  The Police Department is following up with other agencies and lessons learned this year will be applied in the future.

EVCC’S Vision Planning Continues

A draft vision document has been given to the GPAC committee.  The next workshop will address concerns about Schools in our community.  We are working to find an appropriate space to conduct the meeting.  We hope to have a diverse group of voices including parents, teachers, administrators, and bus drivers to address issues like safety during drop off and pick up, internet concerns, healthy foods, communication issues, curriculum, and an open forum. WATCH THIS SPACE FOR MORE UPDATES!

Our Meetings

The East Ventura Community Council meets on the third Thursday of each month at 7:00 pm. We are meeting in-person and online.  Please join us!

Our Meeting Policy

The East Ventura Community Council requires all participants to respect others and to conduct business in a professional manner, with decorum.  Failure to conduct oneself in a respectful manner will be grounds for removal from the meeting.

City Council Meetings Moved to Tuesdays!

The bi-monthly City Council meetings have been moved to Tuesday beginning in January 2024.   The new starting time for the meetings is 5:00 pm.
