Group Seeks Open and Accountable Local Government, Promotes Citizen Awareness

"If the broad light of day could be let in upon men's actions, it would purify them as the sun disinfects" SUPREME COURT JUSTICE LOUIS D. BRANDEIS

The La Mesa Citizen Oversight Group is all volunteer private society of citizens seeking to shine the bright light of public knowledge on the doings and dealings of local government. To accomplish this we will promote awareness, discussions and citizen involvement in many areas such as public policy, the use of public resources and finances, tax and fee issues, legislative acts, private property rights, unintended consequences, public employee and public official pay, benefits and expense accounts.

There are no membership fees or costs. Participation is open for people who live or work in the City of La Mesa and surrounding areas. All officers and participants do so without compensation or reimbursement for expenses incurred.

We accept no financial donations and fund no campaigns. Follow us and become a member on Facebook. As a participant you can stay informed, take part in policy discussions, help create candidate questionnaires and interact with a network of involved community members.
