Show notes

Peter Ravella, host of the Local Control Podcast, talks with the Mayor Steve Alongis and his wife and City Council member, Debbie Alongis, leaders of the Town of Quintana Beach, Texas, population 8 (yes, eight!). Not a single T-shirt shop, not a single hotel, no restaurants and no bars. With two miles of beautiful beaches, a mile-long beachfront park, and an annual budget of $1.2 million, there is no other beach town in America like Quintana. It is a quiet beach town known to a few. And, there is a reason why.
