Council: Five members; by district. Terms: Staggered four years. Local resource: Dana Point City Clerk.

LCP can combine them with a portrait, readable type and a consistent visual identity across print and digital formats. Agendas, minutes and public participation. The Clerk prepares Council agendas and packets, maintains the Municipal Code and records Council actions. Approved minutes and posted agenda materials are the sources to use when describing a municipal decision. The Council page explains how public comments and handouts are handled at meetings. For a civic information piece, link to the actual agenda or approved record rather than treating a discussion or draft recommendation as a final action. A coordinated coastal production brief.
