While listening to Gary Radnich on KNBR this morning, someone from Pacifica called in. Radnich asked the caller if he knew the mayor of Pacifica, but the caller didn't have a clue. Radnich mentioned the reason he was asking was because he was hosting a banquet for the President's Cup last week, where both former SF Mayor Willie Brown and Pacifica's Mayor were in attendance. (Gary couldn't remember Mayor Julie Lancelle's name, but said she was a nice lady.) When introducing Mayor Lancelle to the gathering, Radnich wise-cracked: "Willie Brown's suit costs more than Pacifica's entire budget." Asked about the reaction to the joke, Radnich remarked Willie B. thought it was hilarious, while the Mayor of Pacifica just smiled.
* Jokes aside, Julie does deserve credit for attending the event and representing Pacifica's interests.

Is Mayor Lancelle getting any support from the rest of the Council? I have not heard nor read of any...so just curious. I do not know if I count as support Councilman Vreeland's outspokenness at the destroy the golf course meeting a couple of weeks ago.
Very sad to see this city the butt of so many "can't do" jokes inside and outside Pacifica. Why can't this city get its act together?
The solution is tax revenue generating development which can benefit us all, and the environment. This city is at risk as the result of decisions made by its own city council and those who continue to interfere with city improvement from a standard of "nothing for Pacifica".
This city can't get it's act together because to many folks practice apathy, let the other guy deal with it. We need to generate taxes but every developer who has tried, has failed and lost millions in the process. This town is infected with too many environmental activists and not enough folks on the other side of the see-saw willing to balance out their constant blockage of anything revenue generating that might be good for this city and the "people" not just the frogs or the snakes or the butterfly or whatever their latest "cause" is.
If Gary only knew Julie wanted Colma, Daly City, San Bruno and South San Francisco to send us some money cause our residents go over the hill to shop.
