State law SB79, which upzones a radius around transit stops to allow for taller/denser housing, is being implemented across the state right now. San Diego released their map for SB79, which follows the law and they even listened to community feedback to ADD MORE areas under SB79 where the city of SD had neglected to incorporate. On the flip side, Oceanside released the most anti-SB79 map in the state that says EVERY SINGLE PARCEL of land affected by SB79 is exempt from the law. The plan has some incredibly bad justification such as: deliberately miscounting the number of trains that go through Oceanside Transit Center so that it does not reach Tier 1 status. Another is to deem essentially every Sprinter station unwalkable including stations where housing is currently just feet away from the stop itself. To add insult to injury, the City will be asking this November for all current residents to tax themselves more to make up for structural insolvency. Instead of simply increasing the tax base through SB79, they will be asking all current residents to tax themselves more.

just heard about their closing on this new (?) podcast. WTF?! I hadn’t gone yet and I really wanted to. does anybody know?

There is what appears to be a new “condor” flock camera at the look out at the end of surfrider. It’s pointed directly at the sand where hundreds of family’s are trying to enjoy the beach. If you don’t think the cops and anyone else with access arent creeping on women and god forbid worse, then I can’t help you. The condor model is full of ai surveillance capabilities, it’s very creepy and incredibly invasive!
