Letters: The 'beach view' from City Hall

IJUST READ yesterday's editorial (

"Great Indoors"

) from my desk at City Hall. Thanks, I didn't realize I should be at the beach. My window looks east, but I can't see the Atlantic Ocean from here.

I'd appreciate it very much if you would identify those members of Council, if any, who take the entire summer off. I really think it's unfair to keep asserting something that you know is simply incorrect because it feeds into the negative images that folks have about elected officials. It's just not right.

Jim Kenney, City Council

Editor's note: Councilman Kenney is right; we may have used too broad a brush to paint City Council's summer plans. We intend to periodically monitor attendance in City Hall and report on who's in and who's out of town over the next few months.
