textPowdering The Crooked Nose of The City's Anti-Homeless Panhandling Law by Robert Norse
The Santa Cruz City Council did a "quick fix" on an obscure section of its really bad panhandling law on May 23rd and June 13th. Instead of giving the whole panhandling law the civil liberties and common sense overhaul it needs, the Rotkin City Council chaired by Mayor "Two Minutes" Mathews cut short public discussion and rubberstamp City Attorney Barisone's settlement. More legal challenges and more city money will probably be going to pay City Attorney Barisone's questionable defense of h...

textAnti-Homeless "Parking Lot Peril" Law at Council 3 PM 4-11 by Robert Norse
Ignoring public requests for a thorough examination of alternatives, lacking substantiation that there's a "crime wave" downtown, reversing decades of Santa Cruz traditional use, directly targeting the homeless, but impacting every member of the community, Councilmember Coonerty's "Fifteen Minute Trespass" law will slide through City Council Tuesday Aprill 11th shortly after 3 PM.
