After watching the development of Escena the last 2 years, and median addition,
on Vista Chino in front of Sossas and listing Shannagans for sale, I observed the
steady downturn of business and deterioration of the Sossas market shopping
center. It is an eye sore, and like a maze to gain egress in and out.
I am here to champion for the 'improvement' of the Sossa's corner, and to
COMMEND the city engineers and the city management for their diligence
addressing this issue and solutions ! I implore the city council to see this project
through this summer...not down the road!
