This council is putting the fire chief up to say there are no standards for public safety. The mayor has proven that they are on the hook for safety as proven by her payment of $11,000,000 for the Walker case. Marco says that while Walker advocated for the sharrow that she was hurt on because she was, "confused," the standard for liability is 1%. Think of what the city would be in store for if they pass this and something happens.
McSweeney should find a place for him developmentally disabled brother to live in La Mesa where he already is. This guy worked for the BIA for years and now has found a new group with the same goals.
The voters that voted for BIAspear caused this mess. She is the filthy rat who approved all the up-zone locations like this one that will destroy the surrounding neighborhoods.
If you want to point to the evil in this community, point the finger towards anyone that voted for our whitest BIAspear.
You'll notice there are no up-zoning properties anywhere close to her neighborhood right?
It's Oct 14 2039 and Blakespear is still ranting about how it's of seismic importance that the plebs not have natural gas in their homes while she cooks scrambled eggs on her gas stove
Blakespear jumped to second Kranz's motion to delay until Nov 2 for a reason. The other three figured out the reason and voted with B and K. What they did is a CYA.
On Nov 10, all five will vote to go with the staff recommendation to deny the project. Then Goodson will sue. In the lawsuit, the city will say the council was uncertain about two points: Goodson owning RSF Road to the center line and the evacuation situation, and before voting to deny the project they wanted to be clear on those points. That will strengthen the city's defense.
A court or a settlement will go against Goodson because many of his points are absurd and his legal justifications are wrong, as the ERRD people pointed out.
Then Goodson will submit a revised and bulletproof plan. ERRD and residents will still object, but by that time the Nov '22 election will have passed, and the council members will support Goodson.
It's surprising more attention was not paid to McCain Lane as the only access in and out of the project. It's barely wider than two cars and can't possibly accommodate the traffic to and from Goodson's monstrosity.
Exactly as you say. The court will look at the reason for denial of the appeal. This is why Goodson wanted to take the denial yesterday. It would have been a weaker denial. In the end he will get 90% of he wants and the neighborhood will be screwed.
11:29 has it exactly right. Only thing I'd challenge is the surprise that McCain Lane's problems were not paid attention. This "oversight" is intentional and no surprise there.
11:29 don't forget there are two votes on the table. Several speakers addressed this. By approving staff's recommendation the council approves the second vote on that "orphan" parcel as Goodson and staff like to call it. The removal of that parcel would let Goodson off the hook from a multitude of environmental oversights and freeing him up to build even more units.
Because the council and staff want to satisfy Goodson? Remember 2:38 it's all play acting. Watch carefully how council tees up questions for staff. We truly are the audience.
1:05 has it right and access is fine for this small amount of traffic. Its all a game, the Mayor knows the applicant well, and in the end the neighborhood get screwed. You better think of something really big otherwise its going to happen.
You can thank anyone you know that voted for BIAspear for the destruction of Encinitas.
If you love your family and America, please spread the word. BIAspear is promoting this crap and is sick in the head. If you love America, oppose BIAspear.
Ignorant right-wing crap? Where did that come from?
I am not ignorant or right wing. I'm only an american that fully appreciates the liberty in our country and will protect our freedoms as presented in our constitution.
People like BIAspear who support this critical race theory are clueless to the reality of the world and really need to learn more about history and our awesome constitution. Hypocrites like our Mayor are racist and hypocrites. The worst kind of people.
Please re-read the referenced article. It speaks the truth and makes perfect sense.
4:25 PM — Get a clue. Critical race theory is a bogus, bullshit concept that the manipulator right-wing class is using to rile up the totally ignorant, uneducated right-wing class.
The manipulation is the same that class did with sharia law, saying it was taking over in the US. Complete nonsense.
It's the same as claiming that Trump won the 2020 election and that Biden isn't the legitimate president.
Get a grip. Figure out the difference between facts and falsehoods. Don't buy the propaganda.
And stop posting the same garbage over and over again. Prove you're not brain dead by posting something new and original. Do that once, then something else new and original, and so on.
"... whether or not CRT is literally being taught in many K-12 schools hinges in part on a semantics argument. CRT, the obscure academic theory positing that the structures of U.S. society are racist to their core—and thus it is impossible to separate or ignore racism when confronting other issues—is not exactly sweeping U.S. kindergartens; but CRT—the tendency to reduce individuals to crude racial stereotypes that is pushed by divisive and misguided anti-whiteness gurus like Robin DiAngelo and Ibram X. Kendi—has certainly become an important component of corporate and university diversity training, and is, to some extent, trickling down to K-12 instruction."
"Parents should be forgiven for not wanting their kids to be taught from the perspective that "objectivism," "individuality," and "a sense of urgency," are aspects of whiteness, and that black students struggle to think analytically for racial and cultural reasons.

Blakespear needs the developers' donations (pay-offs) for her run to the State Senate. In her ambitional wake, Encinitas will be over-developed, traffic-clogged and will have permanently lost the ambiance of a small town community. Some call this inevitable progress; I call it profiteering rationalization.
Blakespear Looks Forward to Goodson Groundbreaking
Hacked communication:
Randy, I know you’ve been into building your colossal apartment house for a long time and have put a lot of money into it, but I have to urge you to accept that now is just not the right time for us to approve it. The opposition group is very strong and really have their ducks in a row. There’s unusually high awareness in the larger community simply because of the enormous size of your project. Add to that its awkward location and the many problems it poses. I mean, gee whiz, you can’t ignore putting thousands of people’s lives in danger!
But the overriding problem is the timing. Two other council members and I have elections coming up. What do you think the chances are of any of us winning if we vote to approve a project — that’s your project, Randy — that’s a blatant, opportunistic manipulation of state laws and local ordinances and, consequently, is on very shaky legal grounds?
Plus, the optics aren’t good. The massive building doesn’t fit its location physically or conceptually as part of the community. On top of that, while claiming to benefit low income people, you’ve shoehorned those tiny units into the worst locations in the building. And, Randy, even I have to say that your claim of doing Olivenhain and Encinitas a favor by plopping your colossus on the corner of Rancho Santa Fe Road and Encinitas Boulevard is transparently silly and offensive. And by the way, you don’t own half the width of Rancho Santa Fe Road. That claim is absurd.
Randy, you know I supported SB9 and SB10, and I opposed and tried to kill Prop A — including suing my constituents. I pushed Measures T and U through when I knew they were unpopular and wouldn’t pass. I force-fed approval of the Housing Element. I support and continue to torture residents with things like the Cycle Trap, Leucadia Streetscape and that huge, oddly named imposition on the north Leucadia bluffs. I’ve betrayed residents in virtually every way possible — even worse than Barth, Shaffer, Kranz and Mosca. People compare Stocks favorably with me for cripe’s sake!
So all this is to say that for you to expect me to vote for your overwhelming apartment house now is a bridge way too far. I must ask you to back off. I must ask you to delay. The primary for my state Senate election is in June 2022. The general election is that November. If I win the Senate seat, I’ll still have local influence that, combined with my newfound state power, will let me get your project greenlighted. I’ll be able to say I regret its unprecedented height and mass and the evacuation dangers it poses, but that it does help fulfill our housing mandate, including those tiny affordable units. After you make some sleight-of-hand adjustments, I can say it complies with state laws and local ordinances. I can say my hands are tied, I must abide by the law. I can take advantage of the fact that voters have short memories.
Randy, the council never uses common sense to guide its decisions, so it’s ironic I’m asking you to use yours now. Be patient, you’ll get what you want. I’ll be at your groundbreaking with a gold shovel.

Ha... Its so funny cause its true. Although most thought Stocks would stay the worst Mayor in Encinitas for decades, BIAspear has managed to top Stocks! Way to go BIAspear. Your the clear winner!
Stocks - Give her the crown, shit down, and shut up! Now you are truly nothing. Mikey and the Muirs even left you.
Bravo Reuben Flores!
ReplyDeleteI am so ashamed of our mayor and council. Anyone of the speakers tonight would be better than this crew.
ReplyDeleteWhy do speakers thank the council for letting them speak?
ReplyDeleteDo they think Encinitas is a dictatorship or monarchy where the dear and wonderful leaders can refuse public input?
Next maybe they'll say thanks for not beheading me.
Goodson is a lying POS.

ReplyDeleteBarry ? the Planning Commission attorney. Working hard for the developer alongside "staff."
DeleteWishy washy cowards! No balls or lady balls. Postponed until Nov 10. Lame excuse for not having the courage to make a decision.

Ruban Flores is an American Hero. Thank you Mr. Flores for caring about Encinitas and please run for City Council.
ReplyDeleteYou have to watch the public comments from last night's shit show. So good! https://encinitas.granicus.com/player/clip/2563
