Local surfers are frustrated with the idea of altering an area that always struggles with parking.
“What they’ve done is they’ve kind of made a war on surfers. You’re going to see a lot of guys really upset,” said Paul Ambrogio, a longtime Swami’s surfer.
The bike lanes can seem complicated and it may take some time for people to get use to the new system. For example, FOX 5 witnessed a driver driving in the protected biking lane.

Tony says not to worry, if the new layout doesn't work we can always change it. I know this guy hasn't worked a day in his life and has been given everything (including the house he lives in) but does he really think money grows on trees? The guy is a serious problem.
ReplyDeleteI'm getting the impression that the contractor for the striping and constant re-striping in this town might be a donor.
ReplyDeleteAs shown by Ehlers, the only responsible City Council member, the city’s roads are crumbling, and the city’s storm drains are completely rusted and failing needing tens of millions of dollars of attention now.
ReplyDeleteWhat does the Town Dunce do?
1. Focuses on building a second community center/how much parking lot so that his artsy farts he friends can do art and not have to travel a pile to the east. This action loan will cost $450,000 just to initiate service and cost $20 million to construct and will require two full-time employees and will be a continual. I’m going huge cost for the city to be tan right next to the beach.
2. Completely blows, hot air of June’s butt and all the other residence of north Leucadia and approve high density apartments with failing road infrastructure and no safe walking or biking infrastructure on La Costa Ave and Vulcan Avenue.
3. Supports highering 10 new full time employees (FTEs) which will burn another $2,000,000 budget per year for senseless jobs ranging from another lifeguard lieutenant ( funny they call themselves that🤣) to climate and housing plan paper pushers. This shows Kranz and the City Manager are owned by the Gonzalez- Fletcher Powerful City Employees Union which is focused on more pay and pension for less work.
3. No construction funding for the quietzone and removing Tony’s fence that the courts said was illegal.
4. Seems focused on putting in ridiculous bike lanes that will get the city suit for all of the harm cost to the poor bicyclist in their families. $11 million for Roberta Walker being mowed down in a high-speed Cheryl, and like currently exists on S. Coast Highway in Cardiff, likely > $50 million for the liability tied to Dr. Worley’s death RIP. And all the future pain, suffering and settlement payouts in the millions for the future that’s how long Augusta Highway south of swamis and near Leucadia Boulevard.
No wonder we have no money for projects, the well- traveled gift excepting Dunce is all about wasting money on employees and not needed projects.
The budget hearing also shows the current city manager needs to go. As recession, Louis, every other city in California is looking to trim City staff however, Encinitas is announcing its intention to increase staff FTE over the next unforeseeable years.
Absolutely irresponsible and pathetic. The Dunce is worse than BIA.
I have never seen so many signs all in one place at one time. Just at the entrance to Swami's there's at least a dozen. By the way, great sign placement of the sign on the south side of the Swami's entrance...placing it right in the center of the walking path? What could possibly go wrong? My god it's like the city get's off on getting sued.
ReplyDeleteI just hope I’m not the one that gets someone killed.
DeleteSeriously, cyclists and pedestrians are not the only ones worried. Getting in and out of the San Elijo parking lot was tricky enough, but now there are potentially 5 directions of cars, pedestrians and cyclists to navigate through to visit the beach.
Tony remaining willfully obtuse will not make it better in 6 months or pay for the next lawsuit.
At least hinzeeeeee had a non binary crying object and she’s hydrated 24/7. It’s over. Sadly idiots elect idiocy. Why vote.
Delete*1. Focuses on building a second community center/homeless parking lot so that his artsy farts he friends can do art and not have to travel a bit to the eas to the city’s current art center/ community center. This action alone will cost $450,000 just to initiate service has cost $20 million to construct and will require two full-time employees and will be a perpetual on-going cost. Its a huge cost for the city to maintain right next to the beach.
ReplyDelete2. Completely blows, hot air up June’s butt and all the other residents of north Leucadia and approve high density apartments with failing road infrastructure and no safe walking or biking infrastructure on La Costa Ave and Vulcan Avenue.
Whiners everywhere. Go ride it. If you can't figure it out, stay in your home.
ReplyDelete🖕 you stay in your home you predator supporter.
DeleteWhy don’t you ask your daughter what she thinks about old men preying on young women in the workplace when they’re the chair of the board and you’re a low level employee?
You really add nothing to this area. Try National City or some inland hellscape. The fact you show up here with a big cheap shoe in your mouth is a mystery that says more than your flippant fat ass mouth could say to most anyone’s face.
DeleteIt's the same 20 complainers - James Bond/Jerome Stocks/.....
DeleteIsn’t that sweet. The Fletcher predator supporter likes the new sign fiasco.
ReplyDeleteHope you and Fletch are enjoying your next hunt.
Not only is it not safe it’s uglier than shit. Could you get any more freaking ugly signs along the coast line?
ReplyDeleteWhat a complete shit show.
#signageddon
Yup, Blakespear ruined the view along the 101 in Cardiff and Kranz one upped her at San Elijo.

DeleteWith the release of the completely irresponsible draft budget proposing to bring down the City Of Encinitas,
ReplyDeleteAnd now this #signageddon, the citizens of Encinitas are calling on the resignation of Tony Kranz as Mayor.
City Council, do the right thing, and demand that Tony stepped down.
Actions have consequences and we have all seen the horrific actions that occur. This our city- not a circus.
Tony Kranz must resign immediately.
3 industries/employment opportunities that the world could do without-Realtor. Attny. Politician. I remember being 17 and reading a great book that broke down the reality that stupid people start as lawyers and then become politicians. Take a look at our country on every level. Look how many politicians were lawyers. Realtors? Fucking remora that bolt on tits, stretch their faces and arrange cookies and water every Saturday hoping to get 3-6% ———what a life. But hey, your black or white Range Rover ( leased ) really adds to those open house looks. #americanbeauty

Tony Kranz must resign!!!
Head South on El Camino out the Sprouts parking lot. Travel in the slow lane about 200 yards, look to the right.
ReplyDeleteThe city planted trees behind the sidewalk and most are dead.
It may have helped to "water them".
GAWD !!!!!!
Same thing on Leucadian Boulevard.
ReplyDeleteCity keeps planting new trees and then not watering them. Whoever is in charge of the street landscaping at City Hall needs to be fired.
This city hall needs a complete enema. Tony Kranz must resign immediately.

ReplyDeleteCan’t wait for that polluting commuter train to stop all together or be a real line to I 15 where it should be… quit wasting millions and millions on temporary repairs for eight out of date polluting diesel burning railroad on the beach. Completely stupid.
There’s a better path forward-
There is a lot of misinformation and spin about the train's utility. For the amount of money, land, and attention the Coaster and train tracks require, it actually does very little.
The Coaster compared to the other train lines in the County as well as the adjacent highways shows that of the 5 rail lines in the county, the Coaster has the lowest ridership by far, at only 5,196 daily weekday boardings. By contrast, the Blue Line Trolley has 56,230 daily riders. The Coaster accounts for just 1/25th of total rail volume in the county. What makes the Coaster numbers even worse is the length of the line at 41 miles. It is by far the longest of the 5 routes. Logic would indicate a longer line should carry more riders, but the Coaster does not. For comparison, the 15.4 mile Blue Line moves 3,651 people per day per mile. The Coaster moves only 127 people per weekday per mile, making it among the worst performing trains in the country.
For another comparison, the nearby I-5 highway (from downtown to Oceanside) moves about 1.2 million people per day, or over 400 million per year, over 400 times more people than the Coaster. Annual growth in trips for the I-5 is around 1%, translating to around 10,000 additional daily riders each year. With the current I-5 expansion projects and future efficiencies gained from driver assist and autonomous vehicle technology, it is possible the I-5 accommodates more than 1 billion annual trips by the year 2050. Even if the Coaster miraculously doubles its ridership to 2 or 3 million over the next 20 years, it will still be insignificant compared to the future volumes and annual growth on the I-5.
The Dunce and Hinze need to wake up and get SANDAG and NCTD going in the right direction. Kranz continually votes with the City of San Diego and gives all of Encinitas Transnet funding to the City of San Diego.
June- should be pretty upset about this considering you’re asking for improvements for a Quiet Zone, la Costa Avenue and Vulcan Avenue. Tony gives all of that funding to the City of San Diego.

Tony Kranz resigned today!
ReplyDeleteThe Dunce should resign today!!!
DeleteI’m old enough to remember when some of you were saying the rail trail was the end of the world.
ReplyDeleteThat turned out to be universally loved.
Well, good job grandpa. Give yourself a pat on the back and go have a great day. 😊
DeleteThat as 🐖👧 . Kranz supporter. 😡👎🏿
DeleteThat was 🐖👧 . Kranz supporter. 😡👎🏿
DeletePeople use it. Doesn’t mean it’s loved. Besides, the rail trail is not comparable to the cluster fuck that is this new 101 configuration.
DeleteWasn't the rail trail supposed to be for bikes? If you ride a bike on it today, you will be vibed out of there.
DeleteI rode the bike trail yesterday, it's nice and smooth, unlike many of our other roads.
The jury is out as to how the hi-speed cyclists will use the road.
What is scary:
E-Bikes going both ways at 20+ mph, so close together.
Tailgating and longboards overhang into the northbound lane.
Signs, riders must be constantly aware, or else risk head knocks.
If you ride the route North, it pretty much unceremoniously ends, with no good way to cross 101.
LOL, I did see a young woman manage to park head first. She was scratching her head.
If ever there was an egg on face moment to reverse rapidly, it’s this bike / parking mess. Admit the most colossal road carnage to date and remove swiftly.
ReplyDeleteThe city Council needs to call an emergency meeting and approve a resolution to demand Tony Kranz resigned effective immediately!!
ReplyDeleteMonday is not soon enough.

Delete944 – you sound threatened. Does Slater say stuff you don’t appreciate -like facts?
DeleteShe doesn’t need your developer or union money you Fletcher supporting predator lover.
She posts on there like it is her personal page and mostly stuff that has nothing to do with encinitas. Then she gets told to keep it local but just keeps on doing it. She is stuck on stupid, has not been relevant in decades and is always on the losing side for a reason. Nothing will change as long as pigtails and the del mar dumbass are leading the charge. She can’t even vote in Encinitas and her cold takes helped put Tony Tuckerson in office.
DeleteI don’t agree, Marco. You and the Fletcher clan will continue on your developer and union money grabbing bullshit as you continue to sell out Encinitas. You already own The Dunce. We don’t support your predator way.
DeleteThe rest of us will continue to post facts that are relevant to Encinitas and all of North County coastline
Marco here is what Encinitas thinks about you and your Fletcher clan- 🖕
Agree 10:26. Had her nose all up Encinitas business last election. Slater and the ‘they know best’ activists got the last election lost by supporting 🐖👧 , even though they knew she supported Kranz.

Unlike Slater and the rest of them, at least 🐷👧knows she’s irrelevant.

DeleteLorri lets Pam do whatever she wants on EV because Lorri needs Pam's "friendship" and approval. That's how she gets it. There's a number of people Lorri thinks are her friends but are simply using her for their own ends. It's kinda sad really.
DeleteNot denying it, but what do you think their ends are?
DeleteIt’s not like they’re MLK.
This is probably one of only a handful of good decisions that Governor Newsom has made in his complete tenure as governor.
ReplyDeleteKellie Hinze, this comments directly to you:
wake up. Don’t be as stupid as The Dunce. NCTD is is wasting tens of millions of dollars on failed routes and a completely failed Coaster service.
We could use those tens of millions of dollars on more effective clean and fair transit services. Get with the times and don’t become a dunce like Tony.

With all these new bike lanes we're definitely going to need another bright yellow mini street sweeper. Luigi needs a friend. Will the city continue to insult Italians and name it Mario? What's another 115K to Tony n' the gang anyway?
ReplyDelete115k is the least of the worries. As Brust Ehlers showed, Tony put the city pavement and storm drain infrastructure tens of millions if not hundreds of millions of dollars behind where it should be.
DeleteThe city budget should have a performance indicator of what the insurance JP A’s premiums are so we can track the huge spike from the big lawsuit, losses and payouts like the 11 million for Roberta Walker and the future 50,000,000+ to Dr. Worley‘s family for the wrongful death liability.
Kranz needs to resign today!
Mario is a fine name. Maybe Mario can clean the mini-bout at Eolus/Hillcrest/Andrew? And the BCycle docks while he's at it.
DeleteCan those sweepers go over the plastic poles? Probably not
Why go to Uncensored to begin with? You get what you deserve if you do.
ReplyDeleteEU, Encinitas Undercover, serves us well when it is not being subjected to the moron and his morons in tow polluting this blog with their moronic behavior.

Common Matt Diehl - This is what you have to say about the low performing problem riddled NCTD/LOSSAN rail line?!
ReplyDelete"NCTD began its Coaster commuter service between Oceanside and San Diego in the 1990s. The number of daily trains steadily increased until the COVID-19 pandemic began in 2020, and riders are slowly returning. Amtrak passenger trains and BNSF freight trains also use the route."
Why would you use that BS NCTD soundbite ?
Matt Tucker has his head in the Ballast.
More like ridership is anemic and peaked in 2015 and has gone down as shown over and over again in NCTD's own audit reports.
Try inserting some facts in to your stories. You can reference facts from Dan Quirk who is very knowledgable on the topic.
Even before the pandemic, Coaster ridership numbers were very low and in multi-year decline, with many trains running nearly empty.
The coronavirus crisis caused rider volumes to plunge an additional 90%+, making for an even more dire financial and future outlook.
Rail freight volume is miniscule, accounting for only 0.5% of total freight volume in San Diego County. The other 99%+ of freight occurs on the highways.
The train creates serious conflict and many social negatives including accidents, noise, barriers, trenches, and fences that block coastal access and lead to divided cities and poor urban design.
Erosion of the bluffs could cause catastrophic failure. Rerouting the tracks is not practical because it would cost billions and create serious environmental problems.
California's high speed rail project has encountered significant problems, leading to tens of billions in added cost and years to the projected timeline. It's a cautionary tale.
Technology advances in autonomous electric vehicles, ride-hailing, and solar energy are set to substantially change transportation in the future, creating dynamic and personalized mass transit on the roads and highways, further limiting benefits from fixed line rail.
The Rails-to-Trails Conservancy has inspired many successful rail conversion projects across the nation. A trail here could be remarkable and create billions of dollars in increased economic value.
We request that SANDAG conduct an analysis that compares the tracks vs. the trail concept, both today and in light of coming technology changes. The analysis should look at both the 41-mile Coaster run within San Diego County and the longer 350-mile Amtrak Surfliner line that runs from San Diego to San Luis Obispo.
https://coaster-rail-to-trail.org
And then there is this:
Like transit agencies across the nation, rail and bus systems in California are in a precarious situation.
Budget problems have some on the precipice of a “fiscal cliff” and facing “doomsday cuts,” according to officials.
The rhetoric may seem overwrought, but these are not necessarily idle threats to get more money. Revenue is short and ridership has yet to recover from the coronavirus pandemic — and it may never.
Earlier this month, Gov. Gavin Newsom expressed concern about the fiscal plight of transit agencies, but then added, “We’re just not in a position to solve their short-term needs at the moment.”

The empty, pleading death machine strikes again.
DeleteA woman who died after being struck by a train in the Bay Park neighborhood last week has been identified by authorities.
According to the San Diego County Medical Examiner’s Office, 44-year-old Cherie Crick was walking on the east side of the eastbound railroad tracks, north of the Clairemont Drive Trolley Station, when the collision occurred around 7:30 p.m. Tuesday.
4 arrested at DUI checkpoint in Chula Vista
Authorities say the engineer of a COASTER train saw the woman and honked the train’s horn before applying the brakes. Despite his efforts to gain the attention of the woman and prevent collision, the COASTER struck Crick who was then thrown by the train.
A 911 call was placed and emergency services personnel were dispatched to the scene, which was in the 2700 block of Morena Boulevard, said the medical examiner’s office.
Upon their arrival, paramedics contacted the woman who authorities say was unresponsive. She was pronounced dead at the scene due to multiple blunt force injuries.

RIP.
Kellie Hinze we know Tony is too stupid but we hope that you will Stop the pollution, stop the waste and stop the killing.

You can not take the Stupid out of the Dunce.

Cut the fence all your want yourself. You can lead the way. Talk is just talk until you act yourself. Let's how that goes for you, though I doubt you will do anything more than type out a demand that you would not come close to doing yourself. Help us all out and open the fence. You can do it. Just think of how many residents will know who to thank when the barrier is open for however long it lasts. You obviously have the initiative to call for others to open up the fence. Do it. Do it for the welfare of many residents on the east side of the tracks.

Let people walk across the tracks...who cares. Now that 6 million new illegals have come here and get free cell phones and housing, losing a few knuckleheads on the tracks has zero meaning. Especially to me. Why...I don't care as there are more where came from. Just view the five year olds riding electric bikes in traffic...no one cares, especially the parents. Death to all..........

DeleteAs more and more children are hit and killed on their electric bikes, just remember, we have illegals to take their place.
ReplyDelete1000's of illegals. But don't worry, the canyon dwellers won't bother you, that is until they get hungry and desperate.
Tick Toc
It’s not just kids getting hit. A lot of us old people love riding electric bikes. Everybody should try it. It’s so much fun and great way to get around.
DeleteThese fuckers in cars that don’t give bikes any room should get the keys taken away and if they hit somebody, they should go to jail for a really long time.
I’m so sick and tired of the shitty drivers that are aggressive towards pedestrians and bikes. Pull their freaking license.
People that can’t drive. should take Uber. Driving is not a right it’s a privilege. And people that can no longer drive should get full prosecution no matter what their age.
Bottom line - when you are driving a 2000 pound plus car you’re driving a weapon and it needs to be handled in accordance.
The kids on these bikes are driving in traffic..."in traffic"
DeleteThat's with cars in turn lanes, straight down roads.
The electric bike riders bring it on themselves.
Like the people that walk across the tracks.
"throw the dice, take the chances". It's simple.
Are drivers worse than they used to be? Yep.
It's not a good combo.
Of course they’re driving their bikes in traffic. Traffic is defined as pedestrians, bikes, and vehicles. all share the road.
DeleteDrivers have to figure it out. Get the hell off your phones. When drivers hit someone they need to prosecute the hell out of them.
Do ebike riders young and old think they can blow through stop signs and red lights and never look left or right when turning? Yep. You think you're entitled since Blakespear and Kranz announced "this is a biking town."
DeleteYou know who wants full prosecution? Conscientious drivers do for ebike riders who don't think the rules apply.
Bikes can get tickets just like drivers.
DeleteYou’re not a cop, so don’t fucking worry about it.,
If a bicycle gets hit by school gets severely hurt or killed. Big difference than driving around a weapon.
Catch a clue returning your keys.
But they don't get tickets in reality, do they. I'm a car driver and I do worry about it because some jerk will think they can come after me for an accident they caused. Do I care what happens to someone who doesn't care about anyone else on the road? Ummmm....NO. If they lose to a car they have themselves to thank. How about you catch a clue and let the rules of the road apply to you. You sound like a repeat offender.
Delete1018, Yep you’re a loser. Turning your keys for the safety of the community.
DeleteKarma is coming for you bitch.
10:16- one good thing looking forward is old, careless fucks, like you are dying off pretty quick. So the future is looking pretty bright. 😊
DeleteThat’s why no one cares about old people anymore and or gives them any respect. Because old F’ck like you don’t deserve it.
Like I said, repeat offender.
DeleteWant to see careless check next door for nonstop ebike complaints. Despite what Tony tells you you do not in fact own the roads and the rules do in fact apply. Good luck with that 2000 # encounter.

DeleteI can’t stand Tony and I can’t stand bad bike lane designs like the city does.. and I can’t stand unsafe drivers like you.
My loss that we have such incompetence our area. 😢
What makes you think we are unsafe drivers just because we say that we don’t like cyclists who ignore the rules and endanger themselves and others? How do you make that mental leap?
DeleteAre your comments that I feel bad if a cyclist is hit. Wishing harm on a cyclists for rolling a stop sign. You clearly do not ride.
DeleteI ride sometimes. I wish no one harm. I just won’t spend time crying for themselves who consciously refuses to protect themselves by following the traffic rules and adhering to safety guidelines.
Delete* crying for those…

ReplyDeleteFYI. The city, through the 2 water providers, are tracking your internet activity through Tyler Technologies online payment software. The new system will not allow you to opt out of cookies and the tyler policy clearly states they data mine and track your internet data and even location. If you are wondering why the new system seems so out of date, that is why. All old online accounts must be re-logged into and accept cookies to pay your bill, even if on auto pay before. The new “updated” system is the same as the old but now implements data mining/tracking so they force you to re-log in so they can get your data with the new system.
ReplyDeleteTime to FIOA the water dorks and city sleaze to figure out just how much spying is being done.
For those in the back…. The city can simple ask their payment processor for all your internet activity and personal info they mined from your nrowser and apps. For example, when the city was railroading Surfing Madonna they could have built an entire profile of the parties involved using their browsing history, app useage, IP address finger print etc. Similar to what Cambridge Analytics did but they have data on every single home in Encinitas that correlates names with IP addresses, names with browsing history, everything.
I suggest calling in your payment for now and if you are not cyber security literate stay off the city and water district pages.
Problem solved - Pay your city water bill with a good old fashion, check or bill paying program.
DeletePay by phone doesn't work either. Submit payment button online is covered by the allow data mining and personal info button with no option to opt put. Autopay cancelation was never notified and then a phone call today saying bill is past due tomorrow. This is a government phishing scam. The website was supposedly updated but the only thing that changed was phishing backend, everything else is the sa,e as before.
DeleteThanks Bhavani!
DeleteWith all the motorized bikes on the road it would be wise to get a dash cam to protect yourself and others if an accident happens.
ReplyDeleteThat goes for your driving behavior too, but more importantly you will be able to provide evidence of who screwed up if it ever happens. The proliferation of motorized bikes on our roads ridden by kids of all ages needs come along with education and licensing before venturing out on the roads.
What motorized vehicle on our roads does not require a license? Every e-bike on the road. This is so shortsighted, and for parents with young kids? Please do them right and make sure they are properly trained just as a drivers license requires before you let them out on their own. These bikes need to be licensed as much for the kids themselves as for car drivers on the road.
I don’t agree. A bicycle at most weighs 120 pounds at rarely causes death wanna collides into something.
DeleteA vehicle on the other hand is well over 1000 pounds. most over 2000 pounds. When drivers of vehicles collide with things, there’s big damage and sometimes injury and death.
And they are somehow at fault when a cyclist causes an unavoidable accident?
DeleteDon't mean to hijack this thread but something absolutely hilarious is going on on Del Mar Votes FB page. Marco is not adm. of that group, even though he lives in Encinitas. BUT he has already set down rules, which exclude anyone who is not "WOKE". It's worth a peek.
ReplyDeleteMarco is NOW. Sorry for the not part

OK, Fletcher predator clan. We know you’re tight. Just amazed that the women don’t beat your ass.
DeleteI guess they’re more like the Hillary Clinton type and just take it. No backbone. They let the predators lead.
* we know your type.
DeleteWait a sec,wasn’t that Pam’s page?
DeleteNope. More bad intel from you 7:15. But keep starting dumb rumors.
DeleteSomething about 7:15 reminds me of pot stirrer/propagandist Garvin Walsh.
DeleteHas Marco always been the DMV admin?
DeleteHave you always been a propagandist?
DeleteSave your indignation for people that weren't around for Pam and her one elected term to the council with 10% of the vote. Or during that term when she was APPOINTED, not elected mayor for a hot minute. Nearly half the residents of this city weren't even alive the roughly 40 years ago she lived here and this occurred. All of this is beside the point that she has lived in Del Mar for decades yet spends all her time sticking her nose in Encinitas business while bitching about people that don't live in Del Mar doing the same over there. Heck she's even pulled this same thing here, trying to call out long time and CURRENT Encinitas residents that don't buy her bullshit. If you're trying to keep up there's a word for this, hypocrisy.
DeleteAll mayors until Gaspar championed every two years elected were appointed. Are you ignorant or purposely trying to mislead? What about her threatens you so?
DeleteTrue we had rotating mayors until Gaspar's scheme. Can't call Pam "appointed" like she didn't earn her rotation just like all the others.
Delete8:09 asks a good question. Has Marco the Fletcher supporter always been the Del Mar Votes FB administrator?
DeleteHow did Marco become the admin?
Would not be surprising. The man is the 2nd biggest piece of shit in the history of encinitas. The 1st biggest piece of shit is Karen Blakespeer. These anathema's have their tentacles in every single ting that was//has been/is bad for every single human being in the area. But at least they are banking coin off of the grift right?
DeleteMore BLM riot/rallies at the local city halls ! yessssssssss!
Elections have consequences. What do you you think happens, when you elect The Town Dunce as Mayor?... Well....
ReplyDeleteA now-under-construction project that’s adding protected bike lanes and changing the parking along South Coast Highway 101 is generating lots of complaints, with people contending that it’s unsafe.
“I’m actually afraid to bike it because those bike lanes have been narrowed,” Encinitas cyclist Elena Thompson, a real estate agent, told the City Council last week.
Cardiff resident Greg LaFave said he thought the entire project, particularly the parking changes, were going to keep the city attorney very busy.
“Reverse diagonal parking may work in crowded, slow, urban settings, but you’re inviting calamity, injury and lawsuits by installing these out on a moderate speed thoroughfare,” he told the council.
Thompson and LaFave are not the only ones with concerns and complaints. Mayor Tony Kranz said the city has received “quite a few emails and feedback” about the construction activity.
A woman power-walking on the nearby sidewalk shouted to the reporter, “It’s awful” as she looked over the construction project and shook her head.
Fence building Tony is F'cking up this town and is going to bankrupt us.
Tony Kranz must resign today. The City Council needs to hold a special meeting and demand that The Dunce resign immediately. He is mentally unfit to serve.

We sure payed a lot of money for some paint, a few rubber curb mats, and some signage.
ReplyDeleteMoney that could have been spend fixing the streets. Instead studies were funded, plans made, etc. A whole bunch of staff time taken up for the pursuit of recreation. I guess nobody needs to work in Encinitas.
The only unsafe thing about this newfangled bike lanes is the roads signs ready to split your head open
Not true. The northbound class Ii bike lane is extremely narrow and pinch between guard rail, parking, and fast vehicle lanes.
DeleteThe class IV cycle track is very narrow, and they will be head on collisions.
Very bad design. that’s why the experience bicyclist do not like it, and the city attorney will be very busy because of it and the taxpayers will lose millions again.
Pain and suffering will occur because of the dunce. Many more court cases, and many more in millions being paid out of tax dollars that could’ve gone to pavement or other projects..
I stand corrected. While riding, I cross paths with other bikers at 20+, that's a cumulative 40mph head on. Yes, I was kinda scared. Especially if the other biker happened by at the same point as a road sign. Night time will be super duper, Alice Cooper.
DeleteMy spouse just told me that there was an upside down sign on the southbound side at San Elijo. Huh?
DeleteJULIE THUNDER you are still wrong for Encinitas! You are past your prime date. Please go back to finger painting. Tony Kranz no longer needs you!
ReplyDeleteWho the hell are you calling Julie thunder?
DeleteIf it’s me, I find that very insulting. I am not 🐖👧.
Is Encinitas Resident a real person?
ReplyDeleteThe below question will help you find your answer grasshopper?
DeleteIs Tony’s tuck lovin bed hugging Uncle Garvin real?
ReplyDeleteStop blaming this guy. Blame the people that voted for him. Like biden can't be blamed...IT'S THE PEOPLE THAT VOTED FOR HIM...BLAME THEM.
ReplyDeleteLike 🐖👧, Lehman Brothers Garvin, Kathleen Lees, John Gjata, Marco Gonzales, hinze, Joy, Blackwell, BIA,…. Any other loser that are responsible that you want to mention?
DeleteC’mon now, too many people know that Julie and Garvin were plotting to get Tony elected. Only thing is, Tony wasn’t plotting to get HER elected. He may be a dunce but he’s a shrewd (& lazy) dunce.
DeleteNot shrewd.
DeleteThe Dunce has dumb luck.
Don’t underestimate fat boy. He’s lazy and shrewd enough to let someone else do the work. He didn’t have to campaign the entire election. Julie’s whisper campaigns and her best friends hubby closed down the opposition but good.
DeleteStill doesn’t mean he’s not a dunce! 😁
Just saw the city's pride flag post. Hinze going for a scarecrow look now?
ReplyDeleteInteresting outfit choice indeed 9:05. Very scarecrow like indeed.
DeleteWhat post? please share.
DeleteI didn’t see Tony‘s favorite uncle, Tuck me in Garvin?
DeleteWhat’s up with that? Are they not out of the closet yet?
Come on TONY boy, we know you got a thing for old Uncle tuck Garvin. It OK. It’s 2023…. 🏳️🌈
Is it considered trans, if a 70 year guy from Lehman brothers prefers to dress like Austin Powers and plays Tuck, Tuck, Goose with the Mayor every Sunday morning after their Saturday romping?
