Greetings Stanton Residents! I hope this edition of the newsletter finds you and your loved ones in good health and spirits.

As we continue celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month from September 15th to October 15th here in Stanton, we recognize the rich history and vibrant traditions of our Hispanic community that have shaped our city and enriched our culture. Together, let's continue building an inclusive and thriving community for all.

I'm excited to announce the return of one of Stanton’s most beloved events! Join us the Saturday before Halloween at Stanton Central Park for our Annual Halloween Festival. This event promises fun for all ages, featuring exciting games, lively entertainment, costume contests, delicious food, and plenty of thrills for the whole family. Don’t forget to bring your trick-or-treat bags to collect your candy. We can't wait to see you there!

Gentle Yoga

Yoga is known to improve strength, balance and flexibility. It can also ease arthritis symptoms and benefit cardiovascular health. In Gentle Yoga, you will link breath to movement, cultivate mindfulness and quiet the mind's chatter through a full-body stretch. This class will be offered at Stanton Central Park, Thursday mornings from 10 to 11am. Register at StantonCA.gov/Classes. Please bring a yoga mat; yoga blocks are optional.

Outreach Coordinators Recognized

Stanton's very own Outreach Coordinators, Maria Beltran and Dianna Valtierra, were recognized by the office of Senator Josh Newman for their outstanding work to address homelessness within the

Stanton community.

The recognition followed a ride-along with a representative from Senator Newman’s office, providing a first-hand look at the challenges faced on the streets. This award highlights the incredible work Maria and Dianna do every day to make a difference in the lives of those in need.

Business License Administration Services Moving

Last November, the City Council approved the outsourcing of the business license tax administration services to HdL. The effective date of this transition will be Monday, October 14. The City’s online business license application and renewal portal will be unavailable from Thursday, October 10 through Sunday, October 13. During this time, the City will not be able to receive any new business license applications or process any business license renewals. HdL will have a dedicated phone number and email address for Stanton businesses to contact them on Monday, October 14. This information will be posted on the City’s Business License page on Monday, October 14. While City staff is always available to answer any questions businesses may have, please note that the City will no longer be processing any business license applications or renewals in person at City Hall starting Thursday, October 10.
