It's interesting that most of the people at the drive are seniors. Where are all of the students? And where are all of the African Americans, Latinos, and Asians? Santa Cruz prides itself on cultural diversity and progessive housing but this is the worst decision everyone made. This city will continue to struggle financially because the hotel was not built. Until Santa Cruz establishes more small business incubators (like the city of Marina), people will ignorantly push larger businesses away. Bad decisions people ... you should be ashamed of your selfishness.
