Mayor Garcia's proposal for development in downtown Long Beach does not address the (wet) elephant in the room: where will the water for any additional residents come from? We have a shortage of water in California.
Congratulation’s Juan Ovalle, Joe Sopo, Rae Gabelich and Corliss Lee for stepping up to write the opposition opinions to Mayor Garcia’s self-serving City Charter changes on the November Ballot!
Our RV is also our earthquake/emergency plan. It has the extra food and water as well as a generator. For this reason we like it parked at our home. If it was at a storage yard we would not have access in an emergency.
A few weeks ago I went to the Long Beach DMV to renew my driving license. When I noticed the line was about 150 feet long I left and went to another DMV. There was a long line there too. I left and made an appointment but it took over a month to get in.

Private unions help employees who are working with a management that is making a product or created a service to make a profit. The union tries to help the employees receive a decent amount of the profit the company makes for its members that benefits both the members and the company.
I was scammed May 11 at the Von’s Gas Station on Ximeno and Los Coyotes Diagonal. When I left the station I passed a large black van. I was surprised when the van driver honked at me. But I went on my way and stopped at a store across the street.
