In today's Orange County Register, there is an article about the Mayor of Costa Mesa - Karen Robinson - filing an appeal of the Costa Mesa Planning Commission's decision to demolish the Kona Lanes to make room for Kohl's.

It sounds like it has a good chance, in that the Mayor may be able to sway the commission to reconsider the demolishion of Kona. They've redrawn the plans in order to keep Kona intact.

If it does get demolished, I will never, repeat, never shop at Kohl's. It's bad enough that mid-westerners themselves move here, but when their businesses demolish icons like Kona in order to move here - it's really f'd up!

If Mrs Robinson can pull this off, I'll idolize her (are you trying to seduce me Mrs Robinson?)
