Tustin's 1927 incorporation and early city government
A historical overview of Tustin from its 1927 incorporation vote to the formation of its first City Council and mayor. It covers early fire and police service, the volunteer department evolving into paid staff, the 1928 police chief’s setup, and the move of City Hall from Knights of Pythias rooms to the Fire Department complex then to the Centennial Way Civic Center in 1974, with remodeling in 1993.
