    This is our third time renting out this space and the past workers were nice and helpful…read more But the two ladies working tonight were so rude. One was okay but the other clearly hates her job. How can you work at a community center and not like people ?!?!? Doesn't make much sense. Also , if you expect people to clean up after themselves , it would be nice to provide proper equipment. They expect us to clean a room that can host 100 people with a small broom and scooper. No vacuum.

    I have two words for the people we dealt with trying to rent a venue for a family gathering:…read more Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuk UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU! We originally rented the Center for Founders Village. We paid a deposit and agreed to hire security guards bc we wanted to serve alcohol. More than a month later, Ben calls from the city saying there has been a double booking. We have to change our date, time or venue. Ben provided no evidence that the other group signed a contract before us. We took the high road after FV Rec Center was offered at a discount. We inspected the space and found it to be workable, although not on par with the original space. A couple of days after we agreed to change the space, Ben calls back and says we have to change again. Apparently there is a party scheduled in the adjacent room at FV Rec Center, and it's for teenagers. They did not want us serving alcohol next to teenagers. Again, Ben provided no evidence that the other group signed their contract before ours, which means the teenager party should find another space, not us. We can't change the date, bc several people of the 135 expected are flying in from out of town. We ended up renting space in Santa Ana, bc FV mysteriously didn't want our biz. This is after we rented the Founders space before, and mija has volunteered for the elderly at the center. Everyone we dealt with at the dept that handles renting space is incompetent and a liar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What likely happened is that another party with pull wanted the Founders space, and we got trounced. Then you offer us space we can't have bc of the alcohol matter, when you knew we wanted to serve alcohol. Don't do biz with FV unless you want to get lied to. I am talking to my lawyer about suing the city.

    One of the reasons you have to get to Stanton DMV early is because of their crazy hours. They…read moreclose at noon after opening up at 7am, and than they sord of reopen back up at 1pm. Their DMV is so outdated tho. I do not like the service here. I am glad I no longer have to go to this location after moving to Fountain Valley now. I hope they can make some improvements with their DMV. Hire more people that want to be there.

    Stanton. When I lived there it was known as "Crossroads to Entertainment" because it was a city…read moreyou drove through to get somewhere better, like the beach, Disneyland, or Knott's. I think now it's now famous as the home of Elizabeth Taylor's 7th and last husband. The "City of Stanton" in a governmental sense wasn't bad. They provided a great library and Boys & Girls Club. My first play "California Suite" was at the Stanton Community Center. All of our potholders had come in the mail with the names of Stanton's councilmen and representatives. Did that happen everywhere or just Stanton? As a city, it's okay. I lived in Stanton for almost all of my pre-adult life. It was a quick bus ride to Huntington Beach (sometimes we rode our bikes the 12 miles), and a straight line to Disneyland, just five miles away, close enough that we could see the nightly fireworks that served as an unofficial curfew to come home. I attended Savannah and Mary Perez (both gone). For fun, we had a Golfland, Stanton Village Edwards, annual St. Polycarp festivals, trampoline basketball courts, and the unique Hobby City (now Adventure Land). Though we were regulars at an independent Mario's, the best places to eat in the late 70s were Sundowners (cafeteria style), Me & Ed's (especially after a game), and Pinnacle Peak, where they'd cut off your necktie and hang it, if you were stupid or silly enough to wear one. Like many California cities, it had become populated due to a railway. The LA Interurban ran straight from Watts to Santa Ana in 1905. I, too, would run straight from Watts. Named for LA assemblyman Philip Stanton, the rural area grew and was incorporated in 1911, and although it was then the largest city in OC, Anaheim had planned to use it as their "sewage farm". I think some of the seeds are still there. They dis-incorporated in 1924 to avoid the cost of road building, and re-incorporated in 1950s with the post-war population explosion. Around that time the railway no longer carried passengers, but became my shortcut to junior high. As of 2010, the population was 50% Hispanic, 23% Asian, and 22% white, with a median household of nearly 4 and an income of $51K. Though Safewise included Stanton in their seventh annual "California's 50 Safest Cities" report in 2021, the only time I was "mugged" was two boys taking my newspaper money. It was a little shadier back then. I think the guy running the Olympic torch down Katella (which I witness in 1984) was running a little faster than normal.
