Each side flashed placards at each other with slogans such as "Recall Luevanos Now" and "I Support Ruth." One Luevanos critic shouted "traitor!"

The Gold Coast Transit District's new $53 million operations and maintenance center will not only benefit Oxnard-based Gold Coast, but its riders as well, district officials say.
The long-planned new facility, which had its ribbon-cutting last Saturday, is five times the size of the district's old facility and thus will be able to accommodate more buses.
Once acquired, the additional buses will equal more routes, more destinations, more transit frequency and less waiting time for riders in Ojai, Oxnard, Port Hueneme, Ventura and unincorporated areas between those cities, district General Manager Steve Brown said in an interview.
