Street Lights

I've checked with the City about installing street lights on Greenfield and Veteran. The cost is around $3400 per property spread over 10 years plus approx. $70 per year maintenance. So the first ten years would be around $400. 50% of the owners on a block must sign a petition in support. Then it will take around 1 1/2 years to to install the lights. I know a few people on the 2600 block of Greenfield who are interested. Any interest?

Food

Just ran into 8 friend at FOOD on Pico. Definitely the hoy spot . Besides it's gorgeous design the FOOD is fabulous. Since they didn't have the Caprese as a special today, they whipped up a special grilled veggie sandwich with gruyere and pesto, one word, heaven. I tasted my friend's garbanzo bean purser soup that was absolutely delicious. Don't miss the ginger snaps, probably the best I have ever tasted. FOOD is FAB!
