January 19, 2017 -- The Santa Monica City Council will vote on something Tuesday that is close to home -- a 50,000-square-foot addition to City Hall.

The addition was approved by the Planning Commission in November, although not too enthusiastically (“Commission Approves Santa Monica City Hall Addition, but with Dissenters,” November 22, 2016).

That decision was appealed by resident David Garden, who although he does not say he is representing a group uses the word “we” throughout the appeal statement.

Also, let’s not forget that this $86 million will be financed with municipal bonds at 3.25 percent, which will add an additional $55 million of interest over the next 20 years. This brings the total project cost up to $141 million.
