Spruce Up El Camino Real Day Aims to Beautify City Frontages
Gary Carlton, Mexican import entrepreneur, led about 30 volunteers in El Camino Real cleanup through Palm Springs to San Clemente. He spent twenty thousand dollars upgrading a downtown eyesore into a showroom, urging owners along the street to maintain their storefronts to curb weeds and trash. City officials note upkeep often falls to adjacent residents and business owners, with parkways and right of way kept by private action rather than City Hall.
