The Editor's Desk

Much to my surprise, I’ve received a much stronger reaction to the proposed local rental inspection ordinance and my editorial expressing my opposition. And it turns out quite a number of Barstow residents are equally concerned about the violation of privacy and search and seizure protections.

I’ve received several calls and a couple of e-mailed comments about the issue, all in opposition to the city’s ordinance. A couple of days ago in the blog, I figured folks would support the ordinance as a way to (allegedly) help clean up Barstow.

As it was time for a new front page poll, I’ve put one up to gauge attitudes toward the proposed ordinance. Feel free to vote!
