This nothing new but now people who want to have their offices, etc in downtown are speaking up.  For years I have gone to the DAC -- looking over my shoulder and rushing into the building so not to get accosted in the parking garage.  If one tries to go for a walk thru downtown you're asking for trouble.  While I was working we could not use the park blocks for lunch -- the bums would be pissing in the bushes right next to the Buck's!  And all the City Council can do is spend money on another study???!!!
There is a reason that City Hall was not put up for a vote.  The Council knew that voters are fed up and sick & tired of this stuff.  You are adult men and women; you know what to do but are so afraid of hurting 'feelings'. The 'visitors' are downtown because they can.  
We now have a new downtown --it's called Oakway.
