San Diego County leaders are pushing for major changes in our region. Look in the crystal ball and we can see plans for more housing, more trolleys, more busses, more people, and now a per mile mileage tax. Can San Diego accommodate more growth? What do think of their plans to make this happen?

It is Wednesday, February 22nd. Here is a roundup of news stories in and around San Diego County. Here is what John Riley thinks:

Is SANDAG’s Mileage Tax moral or practical?

This mileage tax proposed by SANDAG is causing plenty of discussion for San Diegans. We are already paying property taxes, sales taxes, gas taxes and income taxes to fund roads, highways and freeways. Now they want to add another tax. Didn’t SANDAG pass the TRANSNET sales tax increase decades ago to fund this?

How are they going to charge per mile? Seems like we will either have GPS devices tracking our driving patterns and this raises valid concerns about privacy.

Their plan is already charging a grandma in Rancho Bernardo a sales tax increase so a student from a rich family can take the trolley to college at a low price. Is that moral?

Are trains and subways the right vision for the future? Or will self-driving electric vehicles offer a better solution that can function as individualized pods that get you right to your destination while also working in a swarm like mass transit?

Climate change activists are suing to stop Mira Mesa’s long-term housing plan

Mira Mesa recently announced a 30-year growth plan and Coastal Environmental Rights Foundation, or CERF, is suing the City of San Diego because the plan does not match up with their climate plan for carbon emission reduction. Now climate goals and housing goals are stalled while lawyers sort this out. Are these groups counter productively harming their own interests?

Will the GOP kill Social Security?

Social Security has been in the news since the State of the Union address when President Biden accused the Republicans of wanting to slash Social Security spending. Sure, there are a few Republicans that want to do this, but do you think the GOP has the cajónes to actually do it? Is it in the GOP’s best interest to cut spending for their senior citizen voter base? We break down the controversy and discuss the morality and mechanics of Social Security.

There are housing issues up and down and all-around San Diego County. The San Diego City Council calls housing a fundamental human right. But is it?

It’s Wednesday, January 25th. Here’s a roundup of news stories in and around San Diego County. Here’s what John Riley thinks:

Sorry San Diego. Housing is not a Human Right.

The City of San Diego’s City Council unanimously passed a resolution declaring housing as a fundamental human right. How can that be without violating the rights of others to provide it or fund it? Turns out that they really didn’t mean it. They just call the statement aspirational. Sheesh. We have a legit housing problem, but is this the way to solve it?  Besides, what is a right anyway?

University City to more than Double in 30 Years

Mira Mesa recently announced a 30-year growth plan. Now University City has done the same. University City wants to grow from 27,000 housing units to 57,000 housing units. They expect to do this with five focus zones with high rise apartments and transforming strip malls into mixed use residential/commercial space. Local residents are freaking out, as expected. San Diego’s economy has radically grown. How can housing keep up?

Escondido’s Housing and Commercial Development Plans

The old Palomar Hospital is being transformed into a 510 unit development called Palomar Heights with apartments, homes, markets, and a sky bar lounge. The Harvest Hills development near the San Diego Zoo Safari Park is in the planning states for 550 units. The North County Transit District is actively taking bids to add housing and more commercial property at their transit hub. Plus there are plans to convert the vacant Sears space at the Westfield Mall into a Costco. Escondido has already built so much new housing in their downtown area and more is on the way.

It’s Tuesday, January 10th. Here’s a roundup of news stories in and around San Diego County. Here’s what John Riley thinks:

San Diego: The Need for more Water Infrastructure

The feast and famine cycle of droughts and floods in California

Assemblyman Vince Fong

https://www.kusi.com/san-diego-leaders-call-for-critical-investment-into-water-infrastructure/

Positive Developments in San Diego County with Desal Plant, Pure Water recycling, expansion of San Vicente Dam.

Some cities installing cisterns beneath parks to capture and store water.

Poway making progress on water infrastructure.

SDG&E: Gas Prices

https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/business/story/2023-01-06/if-natural-gas-prices-across-the-country-are-dropping-why-are-they-soaring-in-san-diego

Wholesale prices up more than 300% since January 2022

A household gas bill that came to about $105 last January is now estimated to leap to about $225 this month. That’s an increase of 114 percent. 

Prices are about current conditions and a view of the future

It almost always comes down to supply and demand. But often there are policies that affect each.

Demand high in the West (rain, snow, cold) – but mild weather in the East

Approx 90% of supply comes from out of state

Less supply - U.S. LNG exporters boosted shipments to Europe by more than 137% in the first 11 months of 2022 from the same period in 2021, according to data from Kepler, supplying more than half of Europe's imported LNG and helping the region weather a more than 54% plunge in piped shipments from Russia.

https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/us-lng-exports-both-lifeline-drain-europe-2023-maguire-2022-12-20/

Biden administration considering ban on gas stoves. Due to asthma or climate change policy?

San Diego County Cities are already banning gas in new construction: San Diego, Encinitas, and possibly Del Mar.

What can you do? Be energy self-sufficient. Solar, battery, LED. Wear a sweater. Control what you can control.

Carlsbad: Traffic Calming, Roundabout

https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/communities/north-county/carlsbad/story/2023-01-09/opinions-sought-on-roundabout-for-tamarack-and-carlsbad-boul

City asking for input for roundabout at Carlsbad Blvd (PCH) and Tamarack Ave.

Carlsbad already has one roundabout in development at Carlsbad Blvd and Cannon Road.

Discussion of roundabouts in Poway.

Captain Charles R. MacVean U.S. Navy (Ret.), PhD joined Pete Neild and I to discuss submarine stories and his new book Down Deep.

Submarine life is not easy. Tight quarters. Disciplined schedules. Everyone depending on someone else. It takes a high degree of trust and teamwork to make for a successful mission.

Charlie shared many great stories involving his crew and some of his missions. It seemed that Admiral Hyman Rickover came up frequently in our discussions. Rickover was a demanding leader that enjoyed keeping his subordinates off balance, so they would be provide direct and truthful answers.

Trust came up so often in this podcast conversation. Admiral Rickover extended a great degree of trust to Charles MacVean, but only after first testing his character and conviction. Rickover had confidence in MacVean’s skills and capabilities. He just needed to believe that MacVean believed he could accomplish the task at hand.

Charlie shared stories about the history of the USS Seawolf and the innovative nuclear experiments and challenges they faced.

The stories of MacVean sitting down with his crew members to learn about their family and aspirations was moving. For many of these crewmen, this was a career they valued because they felt truly cared for. They had a mission, a purpose in life. The military saved many of these men’s lives and catapulted them into upstanding men in society.

This is a podcast conversation Pete Neild and I have been talking about for over a year. I am so pleased that we had a chance to get meet Charlie and enjoy his stories and words of wisdom.

Thank you!
