Pacifica cannot continue to function with 2 to 2 ties and an inability to obtain a quorum to transact the City's business for which the People of Pacifica elected their City Council. I have been a Pacifica resident and homeowner since 1986 as well as a twice-elected Councilman and former Mayor of San Bruno, even gathering more votes than the incumbent Mayor at my re-election and was intending to run in the next Pacifica election. I have worked in Public Safety since 1981, originally with the San Francisco Police Department and presently with the Department of Emergency Services for over 30 years now, and have also owned and operated three private business at the same time.
Since I opened my new clothing store, Pacific Passions, where the old Bearly Worn Consignment Store was on West Manor Drive I have twice been the victim of serious crime. Pacifica deserves and needs someone on the City Council who already understands how government should work to serve the People, not private agendas and special interests.
Bring jobs to Pacifica and SHOP PACIFICA FIRST and we can all help each other survive in these difficult times.

Please see the memorial tribute video I made for the late great Bill Drake, Publisher-Emeritus of the PACIFICA TRIBUNE on my website,
www.PacificPassions.us, it was my honor to do so.
Hilarious article about the questions the Chamber would ask of potential council appointee's. It shows the Chamber would much rather be in Milpitas than a coastal community. It also highlights their lack of understanding of issues like zoning and permitting. Very funny.
This appointment process is finally starting to live up to the freak show I've been expecting.
Other than the sale by the city of one retired police dog to an officer for $1, there is nothing but more elective spending in this agenda.
A previously budgeted $223,000 for the Beach Blvd fantasy, $17,000 for General Plan Update. Hey, it's only money.
All that money to be made from Paid Beach Parking? Forget about it. Every penny has to be put back into the beach for enforcement, plover protection, parking impact monitoring, etc. Might offset the $160,000 cost the city now pays but anything over that stays on the beach. And, the Coastal Commission is playing hardball about what it wants the city to do and how to do it. They are very serious about plover protection. Perhaps Council will face reality for once and let the state take over and deal with the cost and the headaches, ie, more costs on the way. The agreement with the state expires in 2years and we can be out sooner w/12 months notice. Toss in the pier, too, and save big bucks. Neither asset will be hauled away, and, who knows, maybe they'll be better maintained. The state has a pretty good track record on that. They even empty the garbage cans on the weekend!
Council, can we get real? The money is gone, no one is coming to save us, and bankruptcy is the next stop. That'll be real enough for us all.
I think freaky is listed among the ideal candidate's description.
