    Giant glowing billboard slogan contest:

    Downtown Long Beach! Home of the Vacant Lots! (free parking!)

    Downtown Long Beach! If businesses were there, they'd advertise here!

    Common LBC (Gary DeLong) are you that desperate...? for what will most likely end up being a few hundred grand a yr at best? Can't you think of any way/method to raise revenues that we actually would feel good about, that would be a positive to LBC's image? The potential defense litigation costs (right or wrong/ win or lose), once the first freeway accident occurs with the excuse "that flashing billboard" being the cause, will negate any and all "potential" revenues. AND... they look like shit. I guess when you have council salaries of a whopping $36K a year, this is the quality of thinkers you get! LBC lets step it up and let the new school brilliant thinkers start to take control. WE ALL DESERVE IT !!!
