Del Mar throws support to California housing initiative
"Affordable" is Developer B$ wording for Market Rate Housing... Make it 30 yr. rent restricted Low and Low-Moderate income housing instead! Make it a percentage of every project over 3 units to build your way out of current shortfall!— January 18, 2022 12:47 p.m.
Amtrak is flying blind on crumbling Del Mar bluffs, auditor finds
Like most of our foot draggers in the Senate, greed rules the RR not logic! IF they participate in meetings then they have to respond to questions which they do not want to do… so they don’t attend; in effect thumbing their nose at us. Rather than screw up the fragile Del Mar bluff, they should be planning on not using this line for freight. since very little is shipped by rail from LA. Instead upgrading their coastal rail system they should be planning to phase out their coastal freight line and build a better rail link (high speed) between the Salton Sea area and SD. This would open the East County and Salton Sea area for new development as well as a more robust railway in and out of San Diego as well as Baja CA. PLAN AHEAD Stop this planning to screwup the Del Mar bluffs— January 18, 2022 11:04 a.m.
City’s top planner and a waterfront museum quietly go bye-bye
I disagree, I’d love to see what the people of San Diego decided the new museum should display or perhaps it could have been a rotating exhibit with other museums Worldwide? Something GREAT Downtown besides more rental and Convention space, which does nothing for the PUBLIC GOOD, just wealthy well connected Developers! I hope the City gets sued over this because we deserve much more from Redevelopment, instead of insider deal after deal after deal. Case in point, when the North Park Project Area Committee (NP-PAC) administrated by the SD Redevelopment Agency was scrubbed by the Governor, all the millions of dollars specificity slated for redevelopment, as directed by the locally elected NP-PAC, was taken and shifted to CDC and spent Downtown…— November 14, 2021 8:13 a.m.
City’s top planner and a waterfront museum quietly go bye-bye
**No Museum = Big $ Office Space** Where is the public “good” that the museum would have provided? All income (forever) from this high rent space should be split between all the existing museums in Balboa Park and the San Diego River Park Foundation because they benefit the public, not just the City Mayoral Coffers.— November 14, 2021 7:52 a.m.
San Diego's sewer and water rates due to climb
Yet another Brown Act problem, this time by Caltrans and the City of $D! Noticing of one rate increase arrived via USPS AFTER the meeting (I wonder WHY). and now this: After years of public meetings, now at the last second, a modification to the EW bike route removes 2 parking spaces and replaces them with paving without any notice to residents or property owners!— September 29, 2021 11:16 a.m.
Popeyes' Lemon Grove success – and its detractors
Most people’s cars are nicer (and cleaner) than many restaurants, so it’s no SURPRIZE that drive-through are back in fashion! BTW: It’s too bad that Food Trucks are not allowed in NP, since the BID does not want any competition; thinking only of themselves and not NP residents that don’t want to pay for Service and Tip for a quick meal! Greed has made the San Diego of just a decade ago into $an Diego…— June 15, 2021 12:38 p.m.
County taxpayers may foot bill for Lawson-Remer's ex-Faulconer aide
If the Council approves this, then San Diego needs to change it’s name to: $an Diego, where politicians (including their Staff & buddies) all profit from the rest of us!— April 6, 2021 1:24 p.m.
Faulconer figure barred from six-figure Community Power gig
SAD, start since decisions are already being madd without public over-site! Community Power should NOT be cozy with either SDG&E or the Mayor's office, since BIG money is involved, instead CP should be governed by a rotating Board of locally elected Community members, to insure that the cost of Energy is as low as possible! No Energy Fiefdoms...— September 11, 2020 8:30 p.m.
Will Covid-19 turn San Diego’s water plan into Toilet to Grave?
What is the cost of a perfectly sanitary waste water system and what other things would we have to give up to “make it so”? NASA has and is spending zillions trying to develop something close for Space use and you can be sure it’s cost is astronomical, no pun intended. As for me and I bet for most of us trying to live in SoCal, the majority of these focused studies are just another attempt to shift our limited financial resources to projects that increase the cost of making changes to the status quo. A great example is the conversion of sea water to drinking, a wonder idea that is costing plenty because a small group is demanding perfection instead of allowing SD to provide lots of additional portable water for our current and future growth! Suggestion: I we are going to spend money, let's spend money studying how to re-hydrate the Salton Sea and put in a high speed rail into SD, which would ease growth pressures in SD and make SoCal a World Class futuristic city! Potable water is the new Oil, especially in $D.— May 3, 2020 11:16 a.m.
Danish ambulance provider Falck versus Faulconer
Big $ rules SD GOV’t. All our “ checks and balances” are a sham that has morphed into just CHECKS for our elected Leaders! With no (independent) citizen involvement in Awarding City Contracts, we lost control of moving SD forward in a cost effective manner years ago! Fines don’t keep SD Gov’t. honest, they are now just part of the cost of doing Big Business in America’s Finest City...— January 27, 2020 9:30 p.m.
