I agree with the non-smoking ban in public parks, that’s great! I agree with the letter John Kriess wrote. Santa Monica officials (police, coastal commission) should ban the homeless from camping out in public parks. There should be a shelter for the homeless. It’s dangerous for tourists and residents who want to walk in the park in the evening. It is also very unappealing to such a beautiful place. One more thing — I really enjoy the surf report!
