Kranz, Blackwell propose high-density housing at Swami’s?

Coast News letter:
There’s only one word to describe the Affordable Housing Task Force: WEIRD.

What would citizens of Encinitas say to high density housing at the Self Realization Fellowship? In our parks? At the Pacific View Art Center? All three are included along with churches and schools on the “Consolidated Potential Sites List.”

The Affordable Housing Task Force was hastily created for unknown reasons, proposed by appointed (not elected) Deputy Mayor Allison Blackwell, District 1 candidate, and Mayor Tony Kranz, mayoral candidate. We have a state-compliant housing plan, so why were they in such a rush now to plan yet more high-density housing?
Can you imagine what those pumpkin fields would be worth if they were upzoned for 4-story condos lot line to lot line?

  1. It’s more than weird. It’s nonsensical. Unless this task force is a complete farce, it’s hard to believe that members of this task force, which includes respected residents as well as city council members, would suggest the majority of these sites.

    They certainly know they were risking the ire of most of the residents.

    Let’s face it, the task forces in themselves really are a joke. Most of these council picked/council led groups gave no teeth or authority. It’s a lot of postering when we all know the power lies with the mayor and his appointees.

  2. Could the current council be seeing the future of a new majority in the making?

    The whoring of the planning dept. may at last have to answer for their incestuous decades long behavior with every approving developer project that comes before them.

    Go Bruce. If anyone can sweep out the sold-out planners, it is Bruce, along with his long awaited and finally appreciated 'team' of new council candidates.

    Team up for the win. Thank you Bruce.

  3. At least we don't have Mosca here to tag on the title "Blue Ribbon" Task Force. Barf! It seems that the thing was quick put together to resume build for Blackwell in particular. After all, she was the one who proposed it. She doesn't know what the F she's doing if she thinks putting out this list is not going to rightly freak out the pesky residents. Amateur hour. Kranz just too greedy to slow down, hoped no one would notice? Weird.

  4. As someone said it would be very valuable land if developed.

    The Perhaps SRF actually wants to build on their currently agricultural only land. They could make money by renting to their member from all around the world that would want to come and stay in Encinitas in furtherance of their spiritual beliefs.

    After all, that’s Leitchtag’s long term plan.

    4. I went to the peak use time at The Seond Senior Center at PV and saw 5 people learning to write stories and 13 folks doing fingerpainting sessions while talking out why it’s not their fault they are losers and are not liked by their families.

      Great use of $ 20 million plus over $2 million per year in O&M and paying two staff to play on their social media while building their pensions.

      I can not wait for Mayor Ehlers to direct the City Manager to do a long term financial plan for PV and review the benefit-cost analysis.

      Delete
    5. Really? You think "Mayor Ehlers" will do that, because at the PV opening, he toured the classrooms and gushed about how wonderful this is for the community...

      Delete
  6. Yup- total wasted $20 million Plus millions and millions of dollars per year and ongoing operations and maintenance cost. The renovated buildings just sit there rotting in the coastal marine environment..

    Meanwhile, all the classrooms over at senior center one remain vacant as well.,

    Everybody knows that the school knew there was not even enough students to keep the school busy and functioning efficiently.

    So what did the city do?

    They listen to a few Whiny Karen’s about the wanting a taxpayer funded venue for their little group with very little value for the rest of the real working Encinitas’s residents,

    That is where the Dunce steps in. He/She had to have a communist wasteful program that has no regards for tax dollars and spends endless amounts of money for a few current benefits. WTF?!

    Total Town Dunce move and predicted because Town Dunce are as dumb and dependent upon others to survive in life. Hence, Tony Kranz is at his mother-in-law’s house ever since he was fortunate enough to find somebody stupid enough to marry him. He’s never earned his keep.

    He couldn’t get employed so he joined the army reserves and was then showing up at the wrong times like an idiot.

    That’s what town dunces do. they act like idiots and cannot take care of themselves.

    So why would you have a dunce like Tony as mayor of a city?

    It makes absolutely no sense.

    Bruce - Please direct the city manager to do the financial analysis and do something logical with that second senior center. I’m not sure if 45 statues affordable housing towers is best. It might have a better option of being sold and using the money to purchase some openspace ( for the native critters that were decimated when your homes were built) or use for other needs like fixing the roads.

    - wasting tax dollars is criminal

      Instead these idiots in office want to spend more millions on upgrading ECR so they can maim and kill more cyclists.

  11. I guess that besides Kranz who lives in his mother-in-law's house this would include Kellie and Blakespear. If not inherited, most Encinitas residents have a story about how they had to sacrifice to live here. A common story is that people bought their first home in a place that they could afford such as San Marcos or Mira Mesa and bought their Encinitas homes when they were better established or making more money to support a more expensive house. There is value when home owners have skin in the game and appreciation for what it takes to save up for a house and take care of it. Many of our decision makers have not learned these lessons and instead thoughtlessly give away value to friends and donors.

  12. Brian Grover is inviting questions about Fox Pointe Farms on EV. One question that I have is how many income streams does Grover get under the wraps of affordable housing? He states that there is a social director. They have a venue for events and a bar and is there also a brewery? Yet there is almost no onsite parking. What do these things have to do with affordable housing?

    Now that I’ve taken off my dumb red hat, I can actually see that Mexico didn’t pay for any wall, and that not everyone agreed that overturning Roe was welcome. In fact, I think he may have lied about a lot of things. This is terribly disappointing.

    I’m going to tell my friends and neighbors to support Dems up and down the ballot. They seem smarter and Dem run states have better economies, lower crime, higher income, better access to healthcare, longer lifespan, less incidence of obesity and diabetes, lower rates of drug and alcohol addiction, higher rates of innovation and education, lower rates of teen pregnancy, more teeth, and fewer banjoes.

    I now realize life is simply better under Dem leadership. Tell your friends.

  25. Eleanor Musick is always having confrontational issues with our residents. Last week it was with the a guy in Walmart parking lot with Land Rover. This week it's with a lady at Tony's booth. Eleanor, you have a long history of drama with our locals.

    From Encinitas Progressive Unity...

    "On Sunday during the annual Oktoberfest in Encinitas, a woman accosted Mayor Tony Kranz at his booth with an emotional tirade about how he should control social media posts by a private citizen because that private citizen is on a city commission. This woman continued on for 10-15 minutes, crying at times, complaining that she had been told on Facebook by this person that she didn’t know what she was talking about. Mayor Kranz handled it admirably, listening and speaking softly and calmly in response to an irrational rant. After listening for a while, I tried to give him a break and allow him to disengage by introducing myself and suggesting that for her health, she might want to step away from social media. She told me to “f***off” and get away from her, then resumed her rant. I feared that she might escalate and went to search for the sheriffs who were patrolling the event. After searching for about 10 minutes without luck, I turned back and saw the woman standing with a group in front of the Ehlers booth, so it was clear that she had finally finished saying what she wanted to say.

    We all know that social media can be toxic. It’s sad that some people are willing to dish out barbs but can’t handle it when they are criticized in return. It’s also sad that they won’t extricate themselves from social media even when it is clearly harming them, but there is no excuse for this kind of behavior."

    5. Notice the adjectives Eleanor uses to paint her picture of this poor lady who was only trying to speak with Tony Kranz. Both Tony and Eleanor didn't like what the lady had to say, so Eleanor uses these adjectives to make the lady sound crazy. Typical Eleanor fashion.

      "Accosted Mayor Tony Kranz"
      "Emotion tirade"
      "Irrational rant"
      "Resumed her rant"

      Here's Eleanor she described Tony:
      "admirably"
      "speaking softly"
      "calming in response"

    Then she plays victim, while the kids go without a larger playground and additional classrooms.

      Eleanor won, but she took a lot of resources and programs away from children who would have benefited from the extra classrooms and playground that that school wanted to build.
