The City gives its official update on the Realignment Plan after last night’s council meeting.
The city has seen a major decrease in crime with a fully staffed police department, and a downtown “glow-up” has made streets cleaner and more beautiful. Building on this foundation, the city is pushing full speed ahead toward a new economic renaissance.
Fee waivers for restaurants, film production and sidewalk dining, coupled with investments in major events are just a few of the business-friendly programs approved on Tuesday by the Santa Monica City Council.
Just in time for summer, you can now have a sip of rosé while strolling, shopping or enjoying outdoor music on Main Street and Montana Avenue with the newly expanded Entertainment Zone.
Santa Monica is the place to be to shop, dine and enjoy a slice of quintessential California coastal living.
These new city initiatives build on the already successful Realignment Plan, which invests $60 million in public safety and economic vitality.
