1. San Diego had local control of Children’s Pool for 75 years: Therein lies the problem, not the solution SB428 is not what the City Council requested The Council expected a State bill to give it discretion to legally maintain “joint use” so fishermen, divers and seals can share the area What it got is the option for a “Marine Mammal Park” – Take it or leave it.

2. What of other beaches where San Diego has all the local control it needs? There is no policy or contingency in place in the event other beaches are colonized When an adjacent beach was colonized for a while, activists lost no time cutting lines in the sand and harassing beachgoers who crossed it. The City paid no attention. Use → key to advance

5. Take a look at what San Diego expected: Go to: http://granicus.sandiego.gov/ViewPublisher.php?vie w_id=3 http://granicus.sandiego.gov/ViewPublisher.php?vie w_id=3 Click on Video for Feb 17, 2009. Move the time cursor to 4:42 and watch for 10 minutes.

6. For the whole story, View the City Council deliberations when requesting SB428. 40 minutes, starting 4:20 Note the Councilwoman from La Jolla, the affected district, is the only one to ask real questions, and to vote against it. Note the subsequent discussions are around money, not children or seals. A bill that does what San Diego wants requires you re-write the trust. This is no simple matter.
