Yes, the current City Hall isn't attractive but it sure looks mighty pretty when you consider what the Mayor and Council are proposing to spend to get a new one. Mind you, the City Hall was only built in 1977. But to make sure the good taxpaying folk of Long Beach are scared enough, city staff has "determined" it is "seismically unsafe." When did they find this out? In 2005? It is 10 years later and not one person has been moved out of City Hall. That's because the data doesn't match the rhetoric.
Take a look at my latest column on page 4 in the Long Beach Business Journal as I explore this boon doogle.
