“Bowman” from page 21

“Village Corner” from page 22 CVRA: We understand that the City can measure some things like tax revenues, ratio of businesses that survive over time, number of building permits, the number of parking spaces.

How does the City try to measure or be concerned about more abstract measures such as “quality of life” for the residents?

Susan:

Do you want to say anything about desal or water issues?

Susan:

What should the CVRA be doing?

City?

Susan:

Does a City Manager decide priorities? How much control did you have over what happened?

Susan:

Any comments on current local issues?

Susan: But the City Council can’t decide that someone must build a hotel in town, right?

Susan:

You’ve spent a lot of time on the inside. Any Kafkaesque stories about bureaucracies?

Susan:

Do you have a favorite project that you’ve worked on in Capitola?

Susan: Behind Nob Hill?

What’s your biggest worry?

Susan:

Seem like part of human nature.
