It's old news. It's been resolved. Citywide drug enforcement is pretty much on pace this year with 1,061 arrests in the first five months compared with 2,712 arrests for all of 1997. In 1996, there were 2,520 arrests. I don't want them to be pointed to the neighborhood association folks.
Neighbors are tired of the ear-splitting rap music and traffic jams.
Gregory D. Ross wrote in a recent newspaper letter to the editor. Lorraine Margeson is angry that the city has to pay overtime to manage the crowds. Here we are spending spare money on crowd control. She said the money would be better spent fighting crack dealers and prostitutes. I think it's because they're afraid the Uhuru crowd will start a ruckus and that's not good for baseball.
