The Sentinel announced--and pro-hotel union guy Tony Hill confirmed today--that supporters of the Santa Cruz Coast Hotel will be holding their own rally in front of the Civic Auditorium on Tuesday February 22 at noon.

I suggested to folks circulating referendum petitions that they show up there--even though the organizers support the hotel, since folks with different opinions will probably be wandering through.

Also, I find it interesting that City Attorney-for-Life John Barisone has decreed there be three petitions instead of one for this referendum, making it trebly expensive and inconvenient for those trying to overturn the City Council decision.
