City Hall gets green (backs)
At the same time as the city is being named one of the 50 greenest in the country by Popular Science magazine (look out for Janette Williams' story on this later today), Pasadena City Hall got a very different kind of green in the form of a brand new ATM machine. The device, located in the elevator lobby next to the historic building's grand entrance at 100 N. Garfield Ave., will be feted with a grand opening ceremony this morning featuring refreshments and speeches by Mayor Bill Bogaard and Pasadena Federal Credit Union President Ron Berry, whose company will actually own the ATM.
Until now, City Hall patrons had to shlep a whole block away to withdraw money or make deposits at a cash machine.
As an interesting aside, Berry recently left the San Gabriel Valley Newspaper Group after many years as the company's vice president of production (and all around nice guy).
