A native Californian and longtime Carmel resident, Alissandra Dramov was elected to the Carmel-by-the-Sea City Council in November 2022.
The historian has written four books about Carmel-by-the-Sea and is a former television news broadcast journalist. Dramov is a member of the California Preservation Foundation, the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and the California Historical Society.
According to the Monterey County Weekly, Dramov decided to run for council after becoming involved in a grassroots effort to stop Verizon from building a wireless antenna near the Golden Bough Playhouse and a residential neighborhood. Other issues she feels strongly about include these: the beautification of downtown, housing, preserving Carmel’s character, incorporating outdoor dining downtown, undergrounding power lines, keeping pension costs low, and finding solutions to downtown parking.
Notable quote: What convinced Dramov to run for office: “This whole experience of rallying our neighbors, defending our community and defending our aesthetics.” (Source: Monterey County Weekly)
From Monterey County Weekly...
In April 2023, the Carmel City Council approved a two-year contract with Flock Safety, a manufacturer and operator of surveillance systems, to install 30 license plate reader cameras.
After 97 years, Carmel’s historic Harrison Memorial Library, designed by famed architect Bernard Maybeck and constructed by master builder Michael J. Murphy, is on track for a major interior renovation to bring it into the 21st century.
The sharp whacking sound of pickleballs ricocheting off of paddles became too much for neighbors surrounding Forest Hill Park’s four pickleball courts in Carmel.
Fittingly, in a town known for having more restaurants per capita than any other small city in America, many Carmel City Council candidates held their election watch parties at local eateries with the exception of Mayor Dave Potter and challenger Jeff Baron, who retreated to the comfort of their homes to watch the numbers roll in on election night, Nov. 5.
