Artesia History

Former Council Members


The City of Artesia has been electing council members for many years. Each of those council members has made Artesia what it is today, by serving on the City Council and giving thousands of hours to the community every year.

We are proud of our heritage and have chosen to honor our past Mayors and Council Members here. If you know of someone who has served Artesia in the past, please contact us to let us know how we can obtain photos and a brief history, so we may include them.
