Mayor R. Rex Parris of Lancaster, California thinks that his city will be happier with the sound of chirping birds piped in, to the city's streets...or a least, along the main drag. He said so - at Monday's State of the City Address. Hizzonor says that scientific research backs up his claim!
Parris is known for his flamboyant ideas. He got a law passed giving the city the right to castrate pit bulls, ordered city officials to learn Mandarin in a bid to woo Chinese business, and riled some people by saying he was growing Lancaster into a Christian community.
Lancaster, with a population of 150,000, is the 6th largest city in Los Angeles County.
Parris is up for re-election, this year.
