Unsourced Claim[edit]

This article claims that the Mission style is the "official" style of government buildings in Southern California. While the Mission style may feature prominantly in government buildings, I am almost certain that it is not an "official" style. If it is, it should be supported by evidence. If it is not, this claim should be removed. Notecardforfree 00:46, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
