Republican Recall Candidate Kevin Faulconer Visits Fresno, Offers Plan for Valley Water
Politics and Government Republican recall candidate Kevin Faulconer visits Fresno, offers plan for Valley water By Thaddeus Miller July 28, 2021 01:21 PM, Updated July 28, 2021 01:27 PM. Duration 1:17 Fresno CA sees visit from recall candidate Kevin Faulconer San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer made a stop in Fresno to talk water, cost of living and why he's a key candidate in the potential recall of Gov. Gavin Newsom. By Thaddeus Miller Former San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer made a stop in Fresno on Wednesday to plead his case on why he’s a key candidate in the potential recall of Gov. Gavin Newsom. Faulconer’s talking points during the visit consisted almost entirely of the state’s water woes as he stood outside the Department of Water Resources office in central Fresno, where he was accompanied by Fresno County Supervisor Buddy Mendes. “This governor has failed our agricultural community by not providing the water resources that our farmers need, that the Central Valley needs,” Faulconer said. “This campaign is going to be all about changes to actually provide the infrastructure, the resources and the political will to help our farmers and our agricultural community.” Increasing storage and water conveyance by expanding space in places like Temperance Flat Dam and San Luis Reservoir are just part of the plan to improve on infrastructure already in place, he said. There’s money to do it, Faulconer says. California voters have approved nine separate water bonds in the past 25 years totaling $27.1 billion. “That’s what I think is so aggravating.

Hotel Churchill Grand Reopening September 19, 2016 Message from SDHC President & CEO Richard C
We’re About People Hotel Churchill Grand Reopening September 19, 2016 Message from SDHC President & CEO Richard C. Gentry September 19, 2016 Dear Friends and Colleagues, The preservation of affordable housing at the historical Hotel Churchill is a testament to the collaborative efforts of the San Diego Housing Commission (SDHC) and our partners to find innovative solutions to address homelessness. I thank those who made this grand reopening possible, including our congressional delegation – U. S. Representatives Scott Peters, Juan Vargas, and Susan Davis, and our partners at the State and County, respectively Assemblymember Toni Atkins and Board of Supervisors Chairman Ron Roberts. In addition, I commend Mayor Kevin L. Faulconer, City Councilmember Todd Gloria, whose district includes Hotel Churchill, and the full San Diego City Council for their support. With this renovation, we have created 72 affordable rental housing studios that will remain affordable for 65 years. The renovation of Hotel Churchill is also a key component of HOUSING FIRST – SAN DIEGO, SDHC’s landmark three-year Homelessness Action Plan (2014-2107), which was announced on November 12, 2014, at the Hotel Churchill. I am proud of the staff at SDHC and Housing Development Partners (HDP), SDHC’s nonprofit affiliate, for their dedication to provide housing opportunities for homeless San Diegans. HDP served as the developer for this project, working closely with the construction team. The Hotel Churchill is a shining example of ingenuity, foresight, and innovation to address homelessness. Sincerely, Richard C. Gentry President & CEO 2 San Diego Housing Commission 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS U.S. Senate City of San Diego U.S.

Old Town San Diego SHP New Outdoor Open Space Annoucement
For Immediate Release Contact: Sept. 24, 2018 Richard Dennison I Del Sur Sector Park Superintendent 619-688-3398 California State Parks Begins Construction of New Outdoor Space at Old Town San Diego State Historic Park Space Coming to Old Town Fall 2019 SACRAMENTO, Calif. – After over 20 years of visioning and planning, California State Parks, Senator President pro Tempore Toni Atkins and partners today announced the transformation of a Caltrans District 11 Office Complex (Complex) in Old Town San Diego State Historic Park (Old Town) into a new public open space. The new open space is expected to open fall 2019. Visitors will have the opportunity to connect with nature, family and friends, and learn about Old Town’s residents and the Kumeyaay people and their relationship to the San Diego River. Located within California’s second largest city, Old Town pays tribute to the cultural influences that make San Diego and California special. Restored and reconstructed buildings include museums, shops and restaurants that capture the energy of the community between 1821 and 1872. History comes to life through period demonstrations, entertainment and other activities, allowing visitors to discover the lives of those who came before them and to better understand California's beginnings, including the way of life of the Kumeyaay, who were here for thousands of years before Old Town was established and still continue many of their cultural traditions today. More than 10,000 students visit the state historic park annually for educational tours. The park visitation is over 3.5 million annually. “We are finally going to witness the fall of an old building that has outlived its use and the rise of a magnificent park that respects and reflects San Diego’s rich history,” said Senate President pro Tem Toni Atkins.

2015 Undergraduate Research Conference Abstract Book
The Office of Undergraduate Research was established in September 2011 to promote research, scholarship and creative activities across campus. The office aims to ensure that USD undergraduates have the opportunity to engage in these activities both inside and out of the classroom. The Office of Undergraduate Research provides services to both students and faculty, and encourages collaborations across departments and disciplines. The University of San Diego is an enhanced institutional member of the Council on Undergraduate Research. WELME CO to the 2015 Undergraduate Research Conference! This year marks the 25th anniversary of an undergraduate research conference at the University of San Diego! While the name of the conference has changed over the years, its purpose remains the same and its scope continues to grow. What began in 1990, led by Dr. Marie Simovich, Department of Biology, with about 20 science students presenting their research, has grown to 211 multidisciplinary presentations in locations across campus. Creative Collaborations marks a long and proud history of encouraging student participation in research alongside faculty members who are distinguished teacher- scholars. Today we recognize not only undergraduate researchers, but the faculty who mentor them in research activities and those whose generosity help support their work. As you will see today in the 187 posters, 10 interactive exhibits and 14 creative works being presented, undergraduates have opportunities to engage in research across the disciplines. This includes extracurricular and co-curricular research done in research- based courses and capstone experiences. These activities are in keeping with USD’s mission to promote undergraduate research and creative inquiry as a distinguishing hallmark of a USD education.

Most Influential: Kevin Faulconer ... and the Rest of the List
» Newsletter SignUp About Advertising Contact Enter your email... Subscribe Most Influential: Kevin Faulconer ... And the rest of the list Our City is ending our list of San Diego's 20 Most Influential people with new Mayor Kevin Faulconer. He has become San Diego's Most Influential person. When we began compiling this list back at the end of 2013, the race to replace disgraced former Mayor Bob Filner was ongoing and it was unknown who would be leading the city. Now, of course, we know. Faulconer won easily over his opponent, freshman Council member David Alvarez. Faulconer won, but the honor brings its share of hurdles. First is continuing the work that interim Mayor Todd Gloria started, which is to bring stability and honor back to the office. Secondly, it is to lead the nation's eighth largest city at a time when many challenges face it, such as infrastructure woes, homelessness, a shortage of affordable housing, income inequality … Faulconer has stepped quickly into his new role. He's already spearheaded a number of initiatives to improve San Diego's neighborhoods, increase library and rec center hours and beef up public safety. He named Shelley Zimmerman as police chief, the first women in San Diego to hold that post. When the recent wildfires hit, he offered a calm and measured presence. His influence may well go beyond San Diego as well. He's the only Republican mayor of a major U.S. city. Other Republican politicians may look to his rise as a blueprint to achieve similar success. Recent Highlights He did so by taking a moderate approach on social issues.

Analyzing Absentee Ballots Cast in San Diego Mayoral Special Election
Analyzing Absentee Ballots Cast In San Diego Mayoral Special Election Executive Summary Early voting in the San Diego mayoral special election began on October 21st, and since that time, more than 110,000 ballots have been cast citywide. With less than a week left to go before Election Day, the National University System Institute for Policy Research (NUSIPR) projects a race to the finish line for the mayoral candidates. Using data from the Registrar of Voters office and GIS mapping software, NUSIPR evaluated early precinct returns in the November 19th election. From the last three weeks of absentee ballot returns, we found that: • Thirty-five percent of all projected special election voters have cast their ballots. Overall, NUSIPR projects that 46% of the city electorate (313,000 voters) will cast ballots in the election. • Democratic turnout is lagging Republican turnout. Despite outnumbering Republicans in the City by more than 90,000 voters, heavily Democratic precincts are returning fewer absentee ballots and fewer ballots overall than GOP precincts. • Turnout is low in Latino precincts and south of Interstate 8 neighborhoods. In most southeastern & border precincts, more than 85% of registered voters have not yet cast a ballot. • Election Day voters will make an impact on November 19th. As many as 100,000 voters will cast ballots at polling locations on Election Day, leaving the outcome of the race unknown. Absentee Voters Since 2002, California voters have had the option to register as “permanent vote-by-mail” (PVBM). This registration option allows for ballots to arrive automatically in voter mailboxes for each election.

The Changing Environmental, Political, and Investment Climate
BMO Nesbitt Burns The Changing Environmental, Political, and Investment Climate Climate change is an important issue not only for our planet, but also when it comes to politics and investing. More importantly, these three are becoming increasingly linked. A tangible example of this happened in early June when U.S. President Donald Trump decided to pull the U.S. out of the Paris Climate Agreement, causing global consternation and much condemnation from other heads of state and business leaders (with the predictable exception of some traditional energy and coal industry executives). In the wake of this decision, two members of the White Burns Portfolio Advisory Team is in full agreement with this House’s business councils, Tesla’s Elon Musk and Walt Disney’s view. Several representatives from U.S. cities and states – led Bob Iger, decided to leave the President’s advisory groups; by both Democrats and Republicans – reaffirmed their own which have all since been completely disbanded. Similarly, commitments to reducing their greenhouse gas emissions, other business leaders were vocal in their criticism of Trump’s including: decision. These included: Charlie Baker, Republican Governor of Massachusetts: Tim Cook, Chief Executive of Apple (from an internal email “Massachusetts is aggressively working to exceed the obtained by the Financial Times): “I spoke with President goals of the Paris Agreement on the state level, while Trump on Tuesday and tried to persuade him to keep the growing our economy through clean energy innovation and U.S. in the agreement. But it wasn’t enough...I want to environmental stewardship.” reassure you that today’s developments will have no impact Kevin Faulconer, Republican Mayor of San Diego: “San on Apple’s efforts to protect the environment.” Diego remains as committed as ever to implementing our Indra Nooyi, Chief Executive of PepsiCo: “PepsiCo’s landmark Climate Action Plan and being a national leader in longstanding commitment to addressing climate change solar, renewable energy use, water purification and green will not change.
