Saying something about a 50-year-old white male who goes by Gary or Barry or something like that, and if you see him, call 9-1-1.
That describes about half of Encinitas.
Nobody can understand the loudspeaker on the ghetto bird. Why doesn’t the Sheriff substation start a Twitter account so they can post what they’re trying to say?
They want to provide subject material for NextDoor.
ReplyDeleteYes, NextDoor was getting dull at times.
DeleteGhetto birds, promoting straight pipes and date rape. Man- Our current City Council really is focused on the right things!
ReplyDeleteIf you want to watch what is really happening in Encinitas, What the public comments at the beginning of last City Council meeting and you will see the direction of the City.
Promoting PB date rape bar operations, and allowing our neighborhoods to be run over by homeless and straight pipe vehicles is not want I would like to see in our formerly fine beach town.

Start at 6:00 minutes in a video and listen to the courageous woman give sound advice to the City Council regarding our crime-ridden downtown.
Listen to all the comments. Rampid overdevelopment, logical comments about how how to address the homeless problem, and Listen to Mr. Flores at 15:40 who explains to the City Council their true worth. Please Mr. Flores run for City Council.
Please listen to Mr. Arland Ienger (Sp?) who clearly explained the lack of attention to a serious issue regarding noice pollution in our City and sound suggestions for addressing the pollution.
Our Mayor could give a shit. She got her quiet zone and she is now moving on to State politics if we let her. Fuck the rest of Encinitas. Your all whiners any way.
With such a proven failed record, who can this train wreck be endorsed to run for State Senate?
This Country and City is in serious trouble.
-Peace
Blakespear has one and only one agenda - to promote her own political career. She has sold out to the highest bidder - the developers.
Delete*Rampant, how and you're.... Sorry. A bit too rushed.
ReplyDeleteFred - as a long time resident and commercial proprietor, how will StreetScape impact your business?
ReplyDeleteGreat Question and thanks for asking!
ReplyDeleteThe streetscape will impact all the business and surrounding area in an extremely positive way. It will provide a safer more efficient, more walkable, bikeable, healthier, more trees, cleaner air, quieter, and create a super enjoyable destination, while reducing the likelihood of people getting run down and the taxpayers loosing millions due to its current sketchy blight condition. Its a huge win for the community and should have happened 20 years ago.
We will see how great the first phase is and the City Council should fund the entire Streetscape considering it has the best return on investment in the City's history.
Thanks again and any other questions?
-Peace and love
Spread your legs, bend over and pull your head out of your ass. Streetscape will gridlock the traffic and kill the roadside businesses. Ninety percent of the other businesspeople don't understand how Fred and a few others don't get this.
Delete2:27 Delicately put.
Delete2:27pm - What a gentle person. You have such a commanding use of english but you must not live around here or know much about traffic in Leucadia.
DeleteLocals that know the traffic on NC Hwy101 is controlled by intersection at Leucadia Blvd. which completely restricts how much traffic travels on that road.
Unfortunately that intersection will remaining relatively the same so the traffic volumes traveling on the road will remain at it current level. It doesn't matter whether the segments between the intersection or one or two lanes, the traffic will remain as controlled by Leucadia Blvd.
I would also like to see what ever facts you have to support your claim that ninety percent of businesspeople don't understand how Fred and a few others don't get this.
Thank you and have a pleasant Sunday evening.
Peace and love to you too Fred.
ReplyDeleteI fear for your health when breathing the single lane crawling traffic fumes that are coming your way with this misguided scam.
I recall the first time I heard of this idea over a decade ago. My first thought was this is dumb beyond belief.
Time will tell for both of us, my friend.
There has never been a middle ground.
There has never been a true poll held with the residents most affected, much less allowed to be voted on.
It has always been heavily promoted by a few profiteers. I never considered you to be one of them, btw.
2:24 - Thank you but no need to worry about me. I do not beleive there will not be any increase in fumes. If anything there will be a reduction in fumes and noise.
ReplyDeleteLike you said, time will tell and we don't have to wait that long given phase 1 is well underway which will be one lane in each direction.
My prediction is the roundabout will flow perfectly like the ones on Leucadia Blvd and the congestion and gridlock will remain at Leucadia Blvd. which sucks.
It would sure be good if the City would replace the signal at Leucadia Blvd. with a roundabout.
" I do not believe there will be any increase in fumes
ReplyDeleteNumbskull at 8:23 y 8:17 — Look at the Leucadia Main Street Association's website to see how many 101 merchants and property owners are members. Then count how many could be. Also notice that several members shown are not 101 merchants and property owners.
ReplyDeleteTwenty percent or fewer are members. Now you see where the 90 percent figure comes from. Few are members and not all the members are for Streetscape.
The traffic gridlock problem is caused by the Leucadia Blvd intersection and terribly long light. El Portal and that southern stretch of Streetscape have nothing to do with it.
As had been said countless times, there's not enough room at the Leucadia Blvd intersection for a roundabout. Proposing that shows your blindness to reality.
One lane at that intersection will back the traffic up in both directions, more so southbound than northbound because the volume is greater.
The original plan in place for 10 or 12 years had two southbound lanes from Phoebe to Leucadia Blvd. That acknowledged that the unavoidably long Leucadia Blvd light creates the traffic problem.
A few months back, the council discovered — OMG! — no dedicated bike lane for the four blocks from Phoebe to Leucadia Blvd. So they cut it to one traffic lane and a bike lane.
When Streetscape is imposed north of the light, the traffic that now often backs up two lanes wide to and past Phoebe will stretch to Avocado and Grandview one lane wide.
This Friday dinnertime, there were ~60 cars parked in the dirt north of Leucadia Blvd. That's cars, not bikes or pedestrians. How long do you think that many people will continue to patronize the restaurants and beer bar on the west side when then get stuck in gridlocked one-lane traffic every time they try?
Who lives around here and knows what he's talking about and who doesn't?
Thank you for responding 10:29. It allows us to see where your assumptions are off. You know what they say about assume.
ReplyDeleteFirst off, your assumption that the number of businesses that have joined Leucadia 101 mainstreet Association is related to the support of the project is flawed. This project has been well vetted and has gone through numerous public workshops and meetings. So there is that.
In regards to your insistence that "One lane at that intersection will back the traffic up in both directions, more so southbound than northbound because the volume is greater." Again, you are wrong. There has never been one lane of traffic proposed at the intersection. It's two lanes in each direction with multiple turn lanes just like it is today. Maybe you can get someone that can read and understand plans explain to you what is really proposed. You perception seems way off of reality.
As to your point about , " This Friday dinnertime, there were ~60 cars parked in the dirt north of Leucadia Blvd. That's cars, not bikes or pedestrians. How long do you think that many people will continue to patronize the restaurants and beer bar on the west side when then get stuck in gridlocked one-lane traffic every time they try?" I'll just leave it at its not a great idea to be promoting drinking and driving so I hope the drinkers are not driving and parking. Secondly, the parking is retained with the streetscape. Thirdly, the City Council should not be so anxious to turn our town into PB style bar life. Listen to the open public comments of the last City council meeting to hear about what is really happening in Encinitas. Listen to the first speakers comments about what is happening today in Encinitas. She and the others are Heros for speaking out.

As to your point about who knows what he's talking about and who doesn't? I think the readers are smart enough to figure that one out.
Good day sir- I hope you find some time to go walk and enjoy our beautiful town.
-Peace and love
7:54 You don't know the facts and are blinded by your bias, ignorance and inherent stupidity. You don't have the balls to admit you're wrong.
DeleteEvade the point by changing the subject and demonizing the patrons parking in the dirt to go the the restaurants and one beer bar on the west side. That's not drinking and driving.
The number of parking spaces on the east side will decline when the disastrous Streetscape is imposed. Diagonal will go to parallel. The total number of spaces in parking pods on the east side will be 176 by Coastal Commission mandate. Those will be spread through the 2.4-mile corridor. There will be fewer throughout in total, as there will be fewer immediately north of Leucadia Blvd.
The project has not been vetted. The residents have not been polled. The city and Main Street have lied, evaded, manipulated and conducted bogus studies to establish their false claims.
When the disastrous project is completed and — what is it now? $60 million will have been spent? – traffic will be gridlocked, businesses will die, and numbskulls like you will have to do back flips to come up with reasons for the failure. Anybody with an ounce of common sense and even a few weeks of experience in the corridor can easily see the failure coming.
12:51- I am sorry you grouchy old man. You should have went on a walk like I told you. You will not get this day back.
DeleteOh is going to be gridlock for sure with plenty more homeless. Just get a load of this https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/20/us/california-housing-laws.html.
Four times the housing units in Encinitas- four times the traffic. Thats easy.
Its gridlock now and it will be gridlock even worse coming thanks to the City and State.
So tomorrow get out an enjoy it because it going down the shitter fast.
-Peace
8:51 You don't have the brains God gave a squirrel. You're so dumb you're offensive. Nobody can argue with your willful ignorance. You would benefit greatly by getting informed, but you're too dumb to see that.
Delete10:11pm- Thanks....
DeleteYou can stay indoors again, get in your gas guzzling car to go to the store to get your processes food and your Chinese built shit you "need", and then in the afternoon you can focus on watching the City overdevelop in our arid desert as they tell us to quit using water and gas and to pay more taxes to support the homeless industry they built.
Just take solace that you,like all of us, will die in the near future so its not really that big of a deal.... or you can go outside and take a walk in the fresh air!
No worries either way. See ya gramps. Have an awesome day.
-Peace and love
6:43 We are blessed not to be as dumb as you are.
Delete12:23 - There ya go. You are blessed and hopefully you will die happy.
Delete-Peace and love
6:43 —— 10:11 is a dad twice over at 48 but not a grandad yet. Maybe you can rent a brain somewhere.
Delete1:23pm- sure sounds like a grouchy old man to me. Maybe early alzheimer's.... sad.
DeleteBest to all. Remember you are what you eat, sleep well, and get out in the fresh air.
-Pease and love
I think you mean peas and love.
DeleteYup.
DeletePeas and love!
It will be fine except the moments it isn’t, those moments will be troublesome gridlock.
ReplyDeleteTroublesome gridlock? Thats an understatement. Thank your electeds.
ReplyDeleteOh is going to be gridlock for sure with plenty more homeless. Just get a load of this https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/20/us/california-housing-laws.html.
Four times the housing units in Encinitas- four times the traffic, and beach that have 4 times as many people. Thats easy.

I doubt that these replies come from Fred. He would have used his name if he wanted to reply.
ReplyDeleteThese useful idiots namely the mayor and several of he/him/its cohorts have zero self respect.
ReplyDeleteZero.
Zero point zero.
It's intuitively obvious but nonetheless obvious.
Very sad humans
