*By Ronald Martin Santa Monica*

Last week, it was Perry’s beach cafes. This week it’s the carts in the Promenade. What’s with this city? Are the gang at City Hall so hard up for money they have to drive off all the little people? They can spend the taxpayers’ money on stupid things like opening that ugly library. And that Bayside District is another story. It’s about time we had an evaluation of the City Hall and its council members It’s later than you think.
