EDC March 2023 General Membership Meeting

Saturday March 11th, EDC Membership Meeting will be held in person at the Greater Escondido Chamber of Commerce, 720 N Broadway, Escondido, and we've invited ESCONDIDO MAYOR DANE WHITE to come and speak! Make sure to have your questions ready!

This meeting will also be a hybrid in person/zoom meeting, so as many members may attend as possible.

Please be prepared to stay a bit late due to the mayor's presentation and a strategy session with Chris Nava.

See you then!

Remembering Margaret McCown Liles

Local activist and EDC member, Margaret Mccown Liles, passed away during the week of Thanksgiving

She was a longtime activist, blogger, dedicated EDC Board member, past EOC President, and longtime member of the League of Women Voters.

People will remember her for her blog, A Blue View, and for her outstanding letters to the editor. Margaret started blogging about the Escondido City Council following the demise of the North County Times as a public resource.  

See her blog at http://ablueviewescondido.com for a taste of her work.  In a way, it is a record of the Escondido City Council during the time she was writing her blog.

May her legacy serve to inspire others to participate in our government as passionately.
