I look forward to working with the Committee to address important matters facing our city. The Committee on Rules addresses responsibilities that include the Charter, Rules of Council, open government, elections and ballot measures, annexations, boards and commissions, council-initiated matters, communications, customer service and public outreach. Elections and Ballot Measures Review ballot measure proposals that will create additional permanent supportive housing units and help address our city's homeless and affordable housing crisis. Review Charter Amendments Review amendments approved in 2017 to ensure that the accompanying San Diego Municipal Codes are also updated to reflect the amendments. For instance, in November 2016 the voters approved Proposition G, an initiative that amended the City Charter that changed the name of the Citizens' Review Board on Police Practices to Community Review Board on Police Practices. However, one year later the San Diego Municipal Code has not been updated to reflect the change. An ordinance to update the San Diego Municipal Code was discussed at the Public Safety and Livable Neighborhoods Committee on April 26, 2017 however, no ordinance has been presented to date.

  • Shana Hazan Chair, San Diego Human Relations Commission
    Mayor Todd Gloria Civic Center Plaza San Diego, CA 92101 February 25, 2021 Dear Mayor Gloria, The Human Relations Commission strongly supports the establishment of an Office of Child and Youth Success within the City of San Diego along with a budget commitment of $350,000 to fund personnel and the development of a Master Plan for Child and Youth Success. This expression of support comes first and foremost from our collective desire to see San Diego reach its full potential in becoming a City where all who are born, grow up, come of age, and choose to raise a family here can thrive. We encourage you to follow the lead of other municipalities of similar size and composition which have an Office of Child and Youth Success strategicall . This would enable the City of San Diego to leverage intergovernmental and community partnerships. The City of San Diego provides many services and support for children, youth, and their families across its multiple departments, and has linkages to other public agencies such as school districts, and child and youth development program providers. However, these efforts would be more effective and cost-efficient with greater coordination. The proposed office could access technical assistance from the National League of Cities and other similar organizations, while becoming more competitive for state, federal, and foundation grants to support its mission. The need for an Office of Child and Youth Success is more important than ever as we grapple with how to support the thousands of families whose lives have been upended by the health and economic devastation of COVID.

  • Carl Demaio's San Diego County Election Guide
    Carl DeMaio’s San Diego County Election Guide (General Election 2018) The 2018 California General Election is November 6, 2018 and the ballot is incredibly long! With several confusing ballot measures and hundreds of candidates running for office, voters can feel overwhelmed. Fortunately, Carl DeMaio and the team at the DeMaio Report have thoroughly researched and vetted measures and candidates. Carl has issued an endorsement in almost every race. Among the factors that Carl DeMaio applies in issuing endorsements: Opposition to tax hikes (like the dreaded Car and Gas Tax Hikes); respect for the Constitution and personal freedoms; and support for small businesses and job creation against excessive regulation. Several candidates have appeared on the DeMaio Report and we have included their interview in the voter guide for you to listen to – and of course tune into the DeMaio Report each day 3-6pm to hear candidates make their final pitches to voters. Because there are so many items on the ballot, the voter guide is separated into sections. Click on each section to see all the items on the ballot.

Note that it is understood that a formal Application to the HRB is forthcoming. The current owner of the residence, Kyle Kutzke, has conducted exhaustive research regarding both the history of the house and its previous owners and occupants, and has compiled thorough documentation of its history. Further, Mr. Kutzke has presented his findings to numerous local Organizations as well as the Ocean Beach and Peninsula Community Planning Boards, including the Project Review Committee for the PCPB. In his presentation, Mr. Kutzke chronicles a rich history of the residence, and makes a compelling argument that it satisfies items A, B and C of the Historical Resources Board Designation Criteria, even though conformance with only one of the listed criteria is required for the Historical Resources Board Designation of the residence.

  • Carmel Mountain Ranch Residential Community Association
    CARMEL MOUNTAIN RANCH RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION Dear Carmel Mountain Ranch Residential Community Association (Master HOA) Member, As you may know, the City of San Diego Planning Commission unanimously approved the New Urban West Trails project. The Trails project will consist of 1200 new dwelling units on the golf course consisting of apartments, townhomes and other multi-family rentals. The City Council is expected to vote on the project in September. From the time the golf course closed, the HOA Board has been actively involved in trying to ensure any new development on the golf course would blend into our existing CMR neighborhoods. We considered and pursued many options. We met with the golf course owner and New Urban West. We formed a golf course committee and they spent countless hours seeking options, meeting with the community groups and seeking documents from the City of San Diego. Their efforts were reviewed and considered by the Board and our legal team. Our golf course committee keeps the HOA members informed by providing verbal reports at our monthly HOA meetings and by creating newsletters sent to you via USPS and email. The Board retained Everett Delano to represent the HOA. Everett is a highly respected attorney in his area of expertise. Based on the advice of Everett Delano, the Board approved the hiring of multiple experts to look at multiple areas (noise, water, drainage, lighting, transportation, biology, environmental, air, vibration, fire, traffic, other). He filed responses to the City of San Diego as required and even filed a lawsuit seeking public documentation. We shared the experts’ reports with CMR United and CMRSSCC so they can use the information for their efforts.
