My name is Charles Davis, and I am the chief editor and fact checker for this website. I was the elected City Clerk
for the City of Compton from July 1, 1973 to December 29, 2003. I had been elected eight times when I
retired after 30 and a half years of service. During my tenure with the city, I worked with 7 different Mayors, 23 different
City Councilpersons, 16 different City Managers and too many Department Heads to count. I have had to testify and or
go before some grand jury in six elected officials trials and three city employee trials. I was the City Clerk
as the demographics changed in this city. I was the City Clerk as our redevelopment project areas expanded. I
have been a business person and a multiple property owner in this community. My life experiences in this great city
gives me a unique perspective of what is and has happened here.
We have added a link to the City of Compton's website and we will add others as we go forward.
We will update this site as we go along to include general information regarding Compton and the surrounding area.
If there is something you would like to see on our website, use the comment page or email link to share it with
us.
We have some work to do on our store page, it should be open by the middle of next month and we think those looking
for Compton memorabilia will be pleased.
We are looking forward to serving the residential and business community of the City of Compton and all others who have
an interest in our city.
