SAN DIEGO COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER GROUP THURSDAY, JUNE 12, 2014 BEACHANDBAYPRESS.COM Grant breathes life into PB/Clairemont

transit station By DAVE SCHWAB The city has received a $787,000 state grant to begin devel- oping a specific-plan area (SPA) for the region surrounding the proposed Balboa Avenue Transit Station that would slice through Pacific Beach and Clairemont. The grant for the new station, which would be located just east of Interstate 5 and south of Balboa Avenue, seeks to increase bicycle, pedestrian and transit access to the station. Residents of Pacific Beach and Clairemont are being engaged to produce the plan and an implementation program that would address transportation demand, economic market anal- ysis, urban design concepts and multimodal improvement pro- jects. The grant award was hailed by Pacific Beach Planning Group chair Brian Curry as a major step forward for local planning. “This transportation-oriented district (TOD) is a critical piece SeaWorld launches latest installment of our long-term sustainable design plan for Pacific Beach,” said Curry. “The combination of this $787,000 grant and the city’s contribution totals around $900,000 for this planning pro- of popular ‘Summer Nights’ celebration cess.” School is nearly out and San Diegans are gearing up for Guests can purchase a SeaWorld one-year member- the 2014 installment of “Summer Nights at SeaWorld.” ship, which allows repeat admission for an entire year, Guests can enjoy all their favorite park attractions by plus free parking and discounts on food and merchandise.
