SoCo Coffee hosts Santa Rosa Mayor Ernesto Olivares next week for a casual sit-down chat with the public, giving folks a chance to ask him what’s new. “Do you take cream and sugar, Mr. Mayor?” “What’s your sign, Mr. Mayor?” “Do you keep up with ‘Game of Thrones,’ Mr. Mayor?” “Mr. Mayor, wasn’t it a little harsh to demote the Design Review Board chair for asking Simon Malls to work towards more pedestrian access through the Santa Rosa Plaza while they redevelop?” “Yo, Mr. Mayor, you got good Measure O gang crime stats yet for the Mayor’s Gang Prevention Task Force?” Don’t burn your tongue, Mr. Mayor, on Friday, July 20, at SoCo Coffee. 1015 Fourth St., Santa Rosa. Free. 9am. 707.433.1660.
