Well, Santa Ana was supposed to be the site of the Ninth Annual Grrl Fair today, but according to the OC Weekly, the event was canceled when the event promoter got word from the City of Santa Ana that they would be shut down for lack of a permit.
This event was supposed to feature live music, art, a skate jam and more.
Why did it take so long for the City of Santa Ana to reach out to the promoter? I know that this blog is read regularly at City Hall. We wrote about this event back on February 24. What gives?

I miss Koo’s on North Main St. in Santa Ana!
I am perplexed… the event promoter should know that the majority of these events (in any city) require a permit. Shouldn’t this have been checked on first and foremost?
booper,
As I told Councilwoman Martinez yesterday, we live in a very young city and most of our residents have very little education. As such we should not expect folks to know much about civic matters, such as event permits.
I wish that the code enforcement workers who were involved had cared enough to help the promoter get her permit. But they apparently did not.
