Questions raised over City Attorney's decision to release transcripts of closed session meeting
In April, there was a lawsuit against the city for failing to respond to Public Records Acts requests in a civil litigation matter involving the formation of special assessment districts, where the city took an entirely different point of view: http://www.sandiegoreader.com/weblogs/news-ticker… Mayor Filner is Daniel in the Lion's Den - he got elected for a reason. The people of San Diego are the ones who wanted a change from business as usual.— June 23, 2013 8:49 a.m.
Lincoln Club accuses Mayor Filner of ruining City's reputation.
Puleeze! Anyone who has ever been on the receiving end of condescension from one of these Deputy City Attorneys will be cheering.— June 21, 2013 4:27 p.m.
Bypassing the bylaws? Local planning group accused of plowing through process to keep illegal stop signs
Quoting Maxx Stalheim, Senior Planner City of San Diego, " The ... Planning Board is the official voice of the community." (www.obrag.org) The topic was different, a local community plan, but it indicates that the city is giving these planning boards power outside of those granted in the city resolution forming them. The planning board is not my elected representation - that is my city council member. It suits the city to pass this decision-making power to them, as this article shows. These board members give enormous time and energy to community, with no reward. It seems a little spooky.— June 18, 2013 6:56 p.m.
San Diegans for Open Government challenges legality of assessment districts in a June 12 lawsuit
How much money stays in the office, and what is left over for maintenance Projects? Now much relieves developers of financial responsibilities they would otherwise bear? These are not questions that can be answered outside of public scrutiny. Makes it hard for the city to defend in court.— June 13, 2013 1:46 p.m.
Then along came the $100,000 -- City Attorney and councilmember question two mystery checks from Sunroad
Perhaps "political shakedown" was stronger than you meant. As LaPlaya Heritage pointed out, the deal included Sunroad following the normal DSD process and not bypassing it, which was the mayor's objection. Should the city take "donations" for ANY projects? The donor often has their own agenda. Developers do it all the time.— June 12, 2013 8:52 p.m.
Then along came the $100,000 -- City Attorney and councilmember question two mystery checks from Sunroad
Please. I do not believe our mayor could be bought for $100,000. Not even Sanders.— June 12, 2013 5:26 p.m.
Then along came the $100,000 -- City Attorney and councilmember question two mystery checks from Sunroad
Did anyone ask who the checks were made out to? To "My darling friend, Bob" - HIGHLY unlikely. To "The City of San Diego" is a possibility. And were they sent to the Mayor's office to create embarrassment? The real question: How did the City Attorney's office know the checks were at the Mayor's office, and the mayor never heard of it? As usual, the City Council and DSD are ignoring the Municipal Code, the real crime here.— June 12, 2013 12:48 p.m.
City slapped with another lawsuit over broken sidewalks
Nobody knows the amount the City of San Diego spends on planning, traffic studies, engineering studies, consultants which do not lead to any action, much less construction. Maybe they could do a study to see how much they spend on studies. Then, they could set aside a percentage of that to repair the sidewalks, and the problem would soon be solved.— June 7, 2013 6:36 p.m.
Clairemont residents fight against zoning amendment needed for popular fast-food burger joint 173-feet from nearby homes
How many members of the Community Planning Group work for Regency Centers? And when were the Planning Board elections? A changing of the guard, perhaps. Just wondered.— June 5, 2013 3:37 p.m.
