MAYOR Q STILL HASN'T RECOVERED FROM SIDING WITH "MOSTLY PEACEFUL" RIOTERS IN 2020 AND SEEMS UNSTEADY ON PLAZA SECURITY!!!
In fairness, here's his latest half-baked effort that hopefully helps keep people safe . . .

Dozens of violent crimes were reported between Memorial Day and Labor Day inside Westport and Power & Light, compared to eight reported inside the Plaza’s shopping district; 18th & Vine had four.
But eight is still too many, local shop owners and employees say.
“People don’t feel safe,” Alarcon said.
Others claim a clear safety protocol and consistent communication are lacking from Plaza leadership.

“The Plaza is too important for us to turn a blind eye to its challenges,” Lucas told The Star.
