Plan your Dos Palos website and print work together, with clear office details, consistent artwork and a practical production brief. Municipality: City of Dos Palos · Merced County. Incorporated: May 24, 1935. Dos Palos brings a small-city government to the southwest side of Merced County. LCP can help turn your project brief into a coordinated website, signs and printed materials with the correct municipal office clearly identified. A city distinct from neighboring communities. Merced LAFCO’s December 2017 municipal service review places Dos Palos south-southwest of Merced and records its incorporation on May 24, 1935. The report describes a general law city and provides a useful dated account of municipal services and boundaries. The same review separately discusses Midway and South Dos Palos and their service districts. Those neighboring community names should not be treated as interchangeable with the incorporated City; use the appropriate jurisdiction’s records when identifying an office or describing a municipal project. Council policy and City Manager administration. The City Council adopts ordinances and resolutions and appoints the City Manager, City Attorney and advisory commissions. Its official page describes overlapping four-year Council terms and the City Manager’s responsibility for translating policy into operations. The current Council page lists a mayor, mayor pro tem and three Council members. It places regular meetings on the third Tuesday at 6 p.m. in the City-County Building Council Chambers, 1554 Golden Gate Avenue. Use the current agenda before attending, rather than confusing that meeting location with City Hall’s Blossom Street address. At-large Council offices and candidate resources. Merced County’s November 2026 Candidate Handbook lists two full-term Dos Palos Council seats elected at large. That citywide office differs from the separately listed area-based Dos Palos Oro Loma school board positions; the handbook keeps their jurisdictions and requirements separate. The handbook provides municipal qualification requirements, candidate statement guidance, campaign-disclosure information and political sign resources. Use it alongside the City’s current contacts to confirm the applicable filing process and preserve the exact municipal office on website headers and print proofs. Dos Palos artwork with a clear scope. A Dos Palos project can begin with one set of final names, office wording and committee details. LCP can develop that brief across web pages, signs, handouts and mail artwork, keeping the identity and essential contact information consistent. Separate the production address from the jurisdiction named on the material, and include quantities, sizes and delivery instructions for each item. If your team supplies photographs or translated text, provide permissions and final reviewed versions so they can be incorporated consistently across the requested pieces. What Local Campaign Pros can produce for Dos Palos campaigns. Campaign direct mail: Postcards, letters and folded mailers designed, printed and mailed to the addresses you approve, with postage and mail-house handoff planned in. Lawn signs and walk pieces: Yard signs, stakes, door hangers and walk cards sized for your district, using the name, office and ballot designation you confirm. Campaign printing: Palm cards, flyers, envelopes and event pieces, proofed before anything goes to press. Websites and text artwork: A simple candidate website plus matching graphics for texts and email, built from the same approved copy and photos. How a project gets started. Approved content: Your name as it will appear, the office, a photo and any copy you have approved, including a candidate statement if you file one. Office and boundary confirmed: The exact office, district or seat, checked against the official election source for this place. Quantities: How many signs, pieces or mail addresses you need. We help estimate; you approve the final counts. Artwork and proofs: We design or adapt artwork and send proofs. Nothing prints until you sign off. Production schedule: We plan print and mail dates backward from the official deadlines and election dates you confirm. When was Dos Palos incorporated?
