Hundreds, if not thousands of Pacificans are trying to save their lives biggest investment and you are making a joke of it and calling them names. My guess is you have no stake on the COAST. If you want to discuss this face to face, I would be happy to meet up with you. Please do not belittle folks trying to save their properties and livelyhood!

The faux-enviros have moved on to sea level rise fairy tales.

This city has 60+ million dollars of potential bond liability for just the poop factory. Process that. That doesn't count the rest of the indebtedness hanging out there. They have use the WWTP as an ATM since it was built. They even borrowed 2.1 million to pay off some of their ongoing pension liability debt. That's on top of the 20M they borrowed by way of bond on the WWTP. Whooooooooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooooooo!

Pacifica can't even pave its own streets or come up with a roadmap to fiscal solvency, but sea-level rise? Oh yeah, we got this one! Give me a break.<br /><br />What I'm saying is this is a colossal waste of time and money and our community will be worse for it. So...par for the course with this council.

While ESA is all about protecting the coast and not the neighborhoods, business,most of our hotels, restaurants, public infrastructure and outdoor activities on the COAST. The ESA presentation looks and reads like a compilation of general charts, graphs and maps, without much scientific data. Speculative at best. Now, they have all their eggs in the Managed retreat basket. There's no plan B folks. That ship has sailed. Now they are looking at over a billion dollars of property the owners are not going to walk away from and are expecting the city to find ways to protect. To think anything different, is very far removed from realities of people's lives.

They are owned by the Kaufman Progressive Alliance cult. Their only interest is in satisfying their puppet masters who don't want anything built anywhere and easily accept the inundation of large coastal neighborhoods and pervasive destruction of affordable housing with a mere shrug of their shoulders.<br />Pacifica is in grave existential danger with these lunatics in charge.<br />They've got theirs, tax and screw everyone else!

Also, see link below:<br /><br />http://www.nbcnews.com/id/43018489/ns/world_news-asia_pacific/t/how-one-japanese-village-defied-tsunami/#.WoMv7OaIapQ<br /><br />Building a seawall is going to require substantial amounts of money. This is also why I proposed up zoning the areas that are liable to be flooded to attract serious capital.<br /><br />For instance, if the city removes height restrictions, the vertical density may justify the costs towards seawall. <br /><br />This is a very serious issue for Pacifica. Simply allowing the ocean to flood in would put HWY1 at risk. And once HWY1 is at risk, how much more do we give up? <br /><br />Should we give up living in Linda Mar, Valle Mar, Rockaway and Pedro Point because the ocean will eventually flood HWY1?<br /><br />The city council must act responsibly and with long term interests in this regard. <br />The Local Libertariannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7481238059942383326.post-51668602109540853882018-02-12T21:16:49.639-08:002018-02-12T21:16:49.639-08:00I'm curious as what type of Netherlands system...I'm curious as what type of Netherlands system could keep Pacifica from being affected by sea level rise.

As long as it's your money and not theirs, these socialist enemies of Pacifica don't care. Bob Battallio is their bought and paid for (with your money) faux-scientist and he already knows who butters his bread. All he has to do is regurgitate his 10 year old personal opinion about which areas should be deemed flood zones and he gets to pocket $185,000 tax dollars. Then the insurance companies and distressed property buyers can help themselves to whatever's left. Such a deal.
