Does Los Angeles City Councilmember Ed Reyes Want To Turn Lincoln Heights Into "Bourbon Street" Zone (In The Name of "Economic Development")

Wow...first Los Angeles City Councilmember Ed Reyes is hell bent on approving the big Liquor Arcade less than 500 feet from three schools in Lincoln Heights (Las Villas) -- but now it appears as though he's trying to create a New Orleans "Bourbon Street" feel to this school area in Lincoln Heights. This one, not only close to the same school cluster -- but only a hundred feet from homes.

Reyes must LOVE this one! LOTS OF VARIANCES AGAINST COMMUNITY WISHES WITH THIS ONE! I hope State and Federal Agencies don't start looking into all of this. Something ain't right. In fact it's dumb...just like the "You Know Who Councilmember". More on Ed "You Big Dummy" Reyes later.
