Coast News op-ed: Why Bending Rules backfires

From the Inbox:

Coast News:


Department improvements under Mayor Bruce Ehlers and the new director of Development Services, Scott Drapkin, tightened up processes to address violations faster, collect back taxes (some dating to 2022) and track progress through regular oversight reviews. Incredibly, this was not the case in past years.

In contrast, mayoral candidate Rimga Viskanta appears to advocate for a subjective approach to code enforcement. She recently told some Cardiff residents that while at the City of Solana Beach, she helped a business owner treat a late filing as on time to avoid penalties. Viskanta justified it by describing the applicant as “a feeble, elderly woman.” She deflected blame by saying her manager approved her request to bend the code, even though she initially pled the case.

Going by her description of the feeble, elderly woman, Viskanta presumably would not extend the same discretion to an able, young man. In fact, not granting the same exception to all applicants in the same situation would violate their due process. She should know this.

  4. I'm curious about MAGA Marco's political ad featuring Bruce. In it, Ehlers states that he and the 3 stooges have established a majority that they just can't lose. A majority of what exactly?

    Majority male?
    Majority 3 puppets + a father figure to explain basically everything?
    Majority liars about development to get elected?
    Majority controlled by a group of creepy ladies?

    Or is it majority MAGA/Republican? That sounds like the most reasonable answer, because they have completely failed at doing anything about development and will continue to fail (although that doesn't stop them from attempting to scare voters into supporting them) and they'd probably prefer not to discuss what else possibly makes Bruce & the stooges a majority.

    1. That's a whole lotta bobbing and weaving in sad attempt to deflect from Rimga's scary approach to code enforcement. Isn't she connected to the Riggs people? She going to personally review every code violation for a sympathy/friend pass?

    2. So what is the connection between these 4 men on council other than strong MAGA virtue signaling?

      Beyond Luke, Jim & Marco needed their asses wiped constantly by Bruce, I see nothing.

  5. Has the violent F-bomber been arrested yet? From SEN: “If I see you around, I’m going to f**k you up bro, for real.” Puto

    1. It was interesting that the gentleman caller also called Marco a " MAGAt faggot", if I heard correctly. Not nice.

    2. So they know who's phone it is, who the guy is, but can't arrest him?

    3. According to the post, the person's location is known, his wife is known, as is her employer.

      Maybe the admin is a little rusty. They've decided to show up for some admin right before elections for the first time in a couple of years at least.

  6. This blog in addition to being ruined by the juvenile emoji driven repeater, has become nothing but a shill platform for that City Council MAGA majority poser Marco and liar Bruce mention. Remember we only have Marco because of Bruce's broken promises and fake assurances. But each new thread here is a puff piece propping up the MAGA agenda.
    They intend to ship out our homeless problem first to National City, but ultimately to Sunbreak Ranch-- or one of the 37 internment camps proposed by Steve Hilton and friends. This council supports Flock cameras, ICE and rounding up residents whether they are simply homeless or here illegally. It's so easy to simply declare our less fortunate unhoused as illegal too, then they can be captured and shipped out -- Don't love your neighbors is the MAGA motto.

    2. We have a shit council, and Marco is among the shittiest (although not too much worse than Luke and Jim, all 3 suck). The main reasons I hope Marco gets the boot is:

      -Total bullshit appointee who Bruce lied about over and over.

      -Olivenhain power grab. No one wants the place to burn down, but it shouldn't constantly be placed above every other serious concern in the city because Bruce and Marco live there.

      -Zero qualifications or relevant experience.

      -Lied during appointment.

      -Refused to shut the fuck up and go away when his undeserved appointment was up.

      -Supports masked armed thugs terrorizing families he grew up with.

      -MAGA piece of shit

      -Is totally unprepared for basically everything. I wonder if he even glances at the agenda before a council meeting.

    2. This is the problem with your current system, all the appointments when someone runs for mayor and wins. Go back to the rotating mayor, with the rotation locked in, then we won't have people being appointed. On one side, no thanks to Joe Mosca, on the other no thanks to Marco.

      Delete
    3. This is how you say "I don't have an explanation" in MAGA.

    4. No one could play nice on appointments not Barth not Gaspar. That’s why we’re stuck with this crappy system. Thanks ladies.

      Delete
    5. Bruce had the historical and logical understanding to NOT appoint a MAGA idiot. He had good alternatives who largely supported his agenda, at least the agenda he shared with the public.

      Yet he chose a completely partisan MAGA dude with no experience who told everyone he was gonna run in 2026 even though he was unqualified and no one wanted him.

      I don't know if this is worse for Marco or Bruce. Marco, Jim & Luke are idiots, so I'm gonna blame Bruce and the old people whispering in his ear.

  8. Where did Arielle come from? She'd never been heard of before being put to, erm, decided to run. Really. Serious question.

    So not her fluffed up Destiny-style resume, here boots on ground in Encinitas, where has she been??

    1. These are the qualifications of Luke, Jim and Marco:

      Marco:

      Fake fireman
      Inherited a sign making business from his mommy & Daddy

      Luke:

      Part time lacrosse coach

      Jim:

      Former shoe salesman
      Current running promoter

      Arielle came from exactly where these guys did, but with better qualifications.

      Delete
    2. I love that it's like a conspiracy if you don't own a restaurant or business in town. I didn't care where Preston was from, she didn't do any homework and seemed clueless. That was her dq, not where she was or wasn't from. I never heard of Luke before he won, or Marco before he was appointed. Get over it.

      Delete
    3. "From" as in never heard of before. Not asking about comparisons to others, just never noticed her interested in anything to do with the city before and considering she can't really form an opinion it's even more curious. Remember her #1 priority as stated at the Cardiff forum: "raise fees!"

      Also odd she claims she doesn't know her former employer at the food bank. There were just two reports so kind of hard to miss the one who signs your checks.

      Can someone answer without bringing another candidate into the discussion?

    4. Arielle is the dyke's Airbnbush#2 puta, puta, putas!

    5. If you're a woman, we will hate you. Step right up!

    6. so in other words you can't explain her 2:48

    7. 2:51, the qualifications of Jim, Luke & Marco are posted above. Please explain why these men deserve to be in office.

      After that we can discuss Arielle.

    8. I don't live in that district, do some work, figure it out. It's her or Ed....

    9. Do NOT vote for her MaliDrakeWoods is her reference. Blakespear supports her
      MagaMarcoGonzo supports her
      I don't care if she is a brain surgeon
      Do not vote for her

      Delete
    10. 3:51 you can try to change the convo after a question was asked about Arielle and you tried making it about the rest of the council. We've got our answer, don't worry. Arielle will be up there watching her phone as closely as Hinze did for directions.

      Delete
    11. If you don't give a shit about three guys with zero qualifications on city council, why should Arielle matter 6:47?

      Hilarious you're worried about her using a phone when Luke, Jim and Marco are heavily coached and couldn't make it through a meeting alone if they wanted to.

  9. I think it’s hilarious when Mali goes irate and throws a temper tantrum on people who live here seasonly, yet she lives in Carlsbad.

    I think it’s hilarious when Mali calls Marco a fake firefighter, when in fact he’s a reserve firefighter seems legit enough to me. All while her husband is only a part time reserve firefighter seems legit fighter as well.

    I think it’s hilarious that Mali says she supports DEI and then goes redline on anyone who disagrees with her, personally attacking them and often using her chosen catch phrase Magat Faggat.

    Oh the hypocrisy!!!

    2. She’s been making an ass out of herself since her fake BLM rallies, pumping her fist and screaming that all white people in Encinitas are racist with the exception of her close friends including Catherine and Jeremy Blakespear.

      Mali is a grifter, she has a history of moving from town to town, causing disruption and profiting off of it.

      She even claimed she was gang raped in college and forced to drink and do drugs. Oh yea and that her daddy touched her in the naughty place.

      No wonder people can’t stand her, she’s a con artist.

      Delete
    3. Agree. That's why I ignore her. She can't get out of her own way online, always goes wrong. I think she believes what she says, but when it always ends up in the equivalent of an online barroom brawl, you have to wonder why she can't figure it out. Go live your life, you're not moving the needle here, except down.

    4. Bruce is the con artist. I'm not sure if he's been training to be a two faced politician or it comes naturally, but he has the role nailed.

    5. Bruce has spent thousands of hours and a considerable quantity of his own money working for the benefit of Encinitas citizens.

    6. Oh thanks Bruce.

      He should submit a bill for his hard work, we really owe him for prioritizing his neighborhood and fucking over anyone who isn't on his friend list.

      Hoebeck owes him a solid, as does San Antonio, Shaffer, O'Hara, Graves/Hill/Graves Hill (whatever she's going by currently) out in Carlsbad. Shout out to Del Mar Pam, developer adjacent Thunder and republican central committee transplant Garvin.

      Delete
    7. 9:19 typical Mali response, blame everyone on the current council for the previous council’s mistakes and corruption in the name of large PAC donations. Let’s not forget that it’s Team Marco Gonzalez and Blakespear that wanna bring everyone stack, mileage taxes, abolish Prop 13 and “A” along with a whole list of other freedoms, all while virtue signaling how they’re saving the planet.

  14. I remember when Mali had aspirations of becoming a council member, funny that she believed she electable.

    Haven’t heard from her loser, moron, BFF Amanda Zenick in awhile. Maybe she did us all a favor and left like Mali did.

  18. Arielle only fake worked at paid jobs for a few years. She quit them to be a stay home mom. The volunteer jobs had no salary and no responsibilities, so she could bail to have kids, maternity leaves, and be up with them all night.

    She has a one year old and a five year old, with zero qualifications to run for a commission, much less to run for a city council seat!

    Who is behind getting these silly, inexperienced girls to run for office is out of control desperate.

    Can you see.this gal, that is the same place Hinze was in after she had her 2nd kid, missing meeting after meeting because her one year old kept her up all night long! Or her denial that she can handle the late night meetings and going home to a crying one year old! That is not even addressing her high energy five year old. Or, a 3rd baby if she has another one on the way .

    Whoever put her up to this, does not have any kids, and is totally ignorant of what it’s like to deal with them when they are babies!

    1. Makes sense. Silly inexperenced girls should shut up, push out the kids and do other worthless shit.

      Now, inexperienced boys are amazing! They also have no experience, employment history or common sense, but their silly girls produce the babies useful in photo ops. Plus, while the silly girls are home taking care of their photo ops they can attempt to fuck the people funding their campaign.

      Awesome. Encinitas keeps on winning.
