The NEW City Council voted to approve Reps Anelllo and Molinar’s motion to abandon the multipurpose performing arts center project and to use the remaining funds to improve existing buildings. (Paraphrase —not the exact language). After more than 80 commenters and more than 3 hours in executive session the council voted as follows Anello, Molinar, Fierro and Canales in favor; Hernandez, Rivera and Salcido against. Kennedy abstained.
Thank you to all who spoke in favor—the testimonies were awesome and Toñita and Romelia spoke eloquently about their long struggle and beloved neighborhood. Finally a victory for the people!
