Ceremonies founding the village 01 just over 40 settlers look place on September 4, 1781 , and were part of Ihe Spanish plans for the colonization of California. Don Felipe de Neve, California's Spanish Governor, joined Father Junipero Serra in founding Ihe pueblo for Ihe King of Spain. They gave it Ihe name EI Pueblo de Nueslra Senora la Reina de Los Angeles de Porciuncula (lhe City of Our lady the Queen of Ihe Angels of Porciuncula). Over lime, Ihe area became known as the eiudad de Los Aflgeles, City of Angels. By April 4, 1850, when the City of Los Angeles was incorporated, it had grown to a population of over 1,600 people, and an area of 28 square miles. There were no sidewalks, no streetlights, and no graded slreets. Today, the City of Los Angeles encompasses 469 square miles and, with a population of more than 3.6 million people, it Is the second largest City in the nation. The City's boundaries extend from Sylmar on the north to San Pedro on the south, and from Pacific Palisades to EI Sereno. THE CITY SEAL The lion of Leon and ttle casUe of Castile are from the Arms of Spain and represent Los Angeles under Spanish control, from 1542 to 1821 . The eagle holding a serpent is from the Arms of Mexico and represents the period of Mexican sovereignty from 1822 to 1846. The Bear Flag typifies the California Republic of 1846. The Stars and Stripes indicate the present status of Los Angeles as an American city. The sprays of Olives, Grapes & Oranges suggest the City's garden location. The beaded circle surrounding the shield represents a Rosary, suggesting the part played by the Mission Padres in founding the City. THE CITY FLAG The original nag of the City of Los Angeles, known as the Fiesta Flag, was designed in 1931 for Ihe City's 1501h birthday. The banner has a taffeta background of notched stripes of green (for olive trees), yellow (for orange groves) and red (for the vineyards). The colors of the flag are also found In the flags of Spain and Mexico, whose past is very important in the early history of los Angeles. A replica of the City Seal is shown in the center of the banner. DeSigned by Roy E. Silent and E.S. Jones of Los Angeles, the flag was presented to Mayor Frank E. Shaw by Isadore B. Dockweller, President of the La Fiesta Association, Visitors 10 Ihe 3rd noor of Los Angeles City Hall may view a City Flag on display which has the inscription: ~This flag was flown aboard Ihe Space Shuttle 'Challenger' which carried the first crew of 7 astronauts Into space Oct. 5 - 13. 1984.~ The inscription is signed by Or.Sally Ride, Mission Specialist. A native of Encino, she became the first American woman in space in 1983 on the shuttle Challenger, made a second Challenger space fligh t in 1984, and was preparing for her third mission when the Challenger was destroyed in a tragic explosion in 1986. 7 GENERAL INFORMATION Contact City of los Angeles You can contact your City government by phone. mail, or electronically via email or online fo rm.
