North of Oxnard, nothing stays nice and new very long.
The new Wells Fargo at Victory and Sepulveda, painted in salsa red and fried plantain yellow to appeal to local tastes, has taken great care to install bright anti-crime lights and lots of landscaping around its streamlined facade.
But the cash strapped bank apparantly cannot afford to pick up the trash that litters its north lawn along Victory. An MTA bus stop supplies free litter to the bank. The bank lets the wrappers, soda cans and paper sit there for days, without cleaning it up.
What’s the point of building something nice and new if you can’t keep up the cleanliness?
