On Wednesday night, the City Council will once again debate what to put on the ballot. The county election office's filing deadline is Friday, so a decision must be reached that night, or it's too late to get the paperwork together to make the November ballot, the city clerk has said.

Best to miss this deadline and do a special election. Even with cost.
ReplyDeleteDesperation approval on its way....
DeleteYes, watch Blakespear and Horvath flip to unanimous approval.
DeleteSo do you think this bunch can ever come up with a better plan? The city has frittered away all the time since November 2016!
ReplyDeleteToo much pandering to special interests and flip-flopping on proposals. Maybe the city dinosaur Sabine should challenge the State on their housing act; but he is in the employ of the developers - always has been, always will be. This housing plan is DOA.
ReplyDelete7 days left for candidates to file for city council and mayor. Mosca is still running unopposed, and Blakespear's opponents are a 21 year old dude and a 71 year old real estate broker. Do we really want to keep these flip-floppers in office?
ReplyDeleteWhat's the 21 year-old's platform? Hell - we can't do worse than Blakespear.
DeleteYES
ReplyDeleteWHERE'S ALL OF THOSE WHO COMPLAIN ABOUT MOSCA - TYPICAL, COMPLAIN, AND THEN DON'T DO ANYTHING!
ReplyDeleteMosca will shoo in unopposed? Depressing. Muir will probably be reelected too. It'll be business as usual.
DeleteMosca will go on to hold the record for serving on the city council without ever having faced a vote of the people. Now that's democracy.
DeleteThat's the only way he can get in.
DeleteSomebody has got to run against that asshole.
DeleteIt shows the thread of Olivenhain citizens - pussies !!!
ReplyDelete9:25 - Indeed, my manschrub!
DeleteOlivenhampsters!
Spinning the wheel to keep that crappy pool going.
Sculpin should run - put that hot air of his to use!
DeleteOr not! Olivenhain folks happy since mosca protected them from taking their fair share of the heu units.
DeleteWhy mosca made a side deal with L7 peeps to take them off the map is up for debate....
Sculpin should run- major puss.
ReplyDeleteMuir is a reall man
Bruce Elhers should run. He has run before, but come up short. With districts he is likely to win.
ReplyDeleteEhlers vs. Mosca would be an interesting race. Bruce is a long-term resident and has a track record on the Planning Commission while Joe has a legal mind and brings in a fresh view of the world. However, with districts I am not able to vote on this race.
ReplyDeleteFunny title seeing as the only ones panicking are Council and developers.
ReplyDeleteA fish rots from the head first, our council stinks.
ReplyDeleteNo matter how much time given they EFFF it up.
The rot came from further below than the top, which I assume you mean the mayor.
ReplyDeletePlanning has always been the tool. As one of their senior planners unashamedly professed in the past, we, the planners, are not here to serve the residents concerns, we are here to approve every project that comes before us.
That council continues to allow Planning unfettered control, is councils rot. It takes a majority to further this rot. None of them are innocent, and there is not a keeper in the bunch, but the latest majority needs to resign in whole for producing a plan that HCD has denied, as of a couple of weeks ago.
