Apr 24, 2021 08:33 AMKeep in mind that this “broad-based” committee will be dominated by 3 Councilmembers, one of whom very likely will be Michael Jordan, another of whom will be Alejandra Gutierrez, and, worst of worse, maybe Meagan Harmon — plus 3 or four business owners there (and that makes sense since the property adjoining the street is privately owned.)
It's in the El Pueblo Viejo but there's to be only one HLC member so we know what the council thinks of the fact that it is SB's history, its difference from Oxnard, for instance, or Goleta, that draws the visitors, tourists who used to spend the money here.
If the council really was interested in new and different ideas of how to rejuvenate and integrate into the EPC, if they really wanted public opinion, there would be no council members on this committee. Council members would be there as liaisons, there to listen and report back. Instead, ...!
