Hayward Ordinance Would Ease Vendor Law
Hayward city council considers an ordinance to ease street vending by allowing stands under 30 square feet in commercial areas with use permits and no vehicle selling. The plan favors produce on a limited basis and would extend permits to flowers and other items grown on private property, while addressing concerns about enforcement and nonproduce vendors. Councillor George Makes backs flower stands but worries broader openings could invite wider street selling and enforcement issues.

California faces energy crisis warns five California power firms
A five month study funded by five California power companies warns California may endure a fuel shortage this decade with electricity and low sulfur fuel at risk while the nation faces milder issues. The Al Stanton Research Institute urges rapid energy source development and public education to curb consumption. Nuclear expansion is not permitted and California could spend up to 9 billion dollars on importing electricity if usage grows unchecked. By 2000 energy expenditure as a share of personal income should remain around 2.4 percent, with overall demand rising about 4.4 percent annually through the century, slightly above national growth.
