I believe in the Croetto Ghetto!
I took this on Thursday on the way home. Since my 08/2005 photo, the couches have been replaced with an abandoned truck shell, and trash is strewn all over the place. If the owner is amenable to paying my gas and dump fees, I'l clean it up for him.
What really cracks me up seeing this, is that the city council swaggered and postured with Raleys intitially over their participation in the Mills Shopping Center Remodel.
They (a council member and staff) threatened, or intimated, that they would hinder the smooth processing of Raley's construction of the Anatoilia store should they "become difficult" over the Mills remodel. This made it's way into the newspaper. Amazing!
These bozoos can't even manage to keep a dumpy, closed bar's parking lot clean and they are boasting about muscling the most committed retailer/grocer in Rancho Cordova history.
Completely moronic. They did an about face in the Grapevine as soon as was humanly possible to print and distribute their "re-statement" or clarification.
Although it would suck for the shopping center and the neighborhoods adjoining Folsom Blvd, it would serve the city council right to be the first elected offcials in Rancho history to run off a committed business parner who'd stuck by Rancho through thick and thin, in what has to be one of the most dangerous and theft prone locations in Rancho Cordova to open a store near.
I guess the council can go back to sending "mean letters" with frowning face stickers to the owners of the Stagger. It seems to get them off or something.
