Mayor Hopkins should worry about more important things than naming rights. As an elected official, his responsibility is to maintain and improve the quality of life for Cranston residents. How does making a furor over Top Golf naming rights and ignoring that the Park Theater project has failed and has closed. Cranston as bedroom community already is known as a cultural desert and the end of Park seals that image. Also noteworthy is the inept city effort to address the lack of a vibrant downtown area and the failure of Rolfe Street to take on the role in a steady and consistent way. Mayor Hopkins shows a hands off approach rather than rolling up his sleeves and making his government lead by nurturing new ideas and initiatives.
