A recent city survey notes that the top concerns of Santa Monicans are the increasing number of homeless people living on the streets, too much development and too much traffic.
The results of the survey probably don’ surprise many, since the concerns have been the same for at least three years in a row. However, the survey only polled 400 people in a city with a population of 84,000.
So this week Q-Line wants to know: “Are the top concerns revealed in the city’s survey also your concerns? How can our elected officials rectify the problem?”
Call (310) 285-8106 with your response before Thursday at 5 p.m. We’ll print it in Friday’s paper. Please limit your comments to a minute or less; it might help to thin first about the wording of your response.
