Childrens Pool Meeting Tues 2/17 2pm

Why not just return the area to its original state? By building the wall to create the children’s pool the city has messed with the natural order of things. Was an ecological impact study done on this site prior to the building of the wall? I don’t think they really thought about that sort of stuff back in 1930’s when Ellen Browning Scripps donated the funds to build the sea wall and now we have to deal with the aftermath.
Mr Mayor Tear down the wall!
The ocean comes back to the cliff and there wouldn’t be a need for a huge life guard tower as it will no longer be a swim place. Even for SCUBA diving it has been relatively unsafe because of the heavy rip currents.
Personally I don’t use the area. I have taken out of town friends there to see the seals and usually we can’t stay too long for the smell is so bad. I could care less either way but it seams to me that spending a couple of hundred thousands to remove the wall now will save the city millions in the long run.
That’s my 2 pennies.

I went to the City coucil meeting yesterday, and the FOS were a huge majority in attendance. They were well represented by a few sharp shooting attorney's.
I might be way off on this issue but personally I don't use the CP nor do I visit it, but I have seen what years and years of Marine mammal feces does to the coronado Islands!
Wait another 25 years and let the feces pile even deeper and higher into the sand, then every day that the sun is out and the wind is down La Jolla "The Jewel" will freaking stink like a dead whale carcus and the flies will be so thick at "the Jewel" that nobody will want to go close to that place. The ignorant lady who went to the podium to say how all the merchants want the seals to stay might change her toon in 20 years but by then it will be way to late. Just my humble opinion.

The vote was 7-1, with only La Jolla councilwoman Sherri Lightner opposed. What do you suppose she knows that the others don't? CP is in her district. Go figure.

It's been like that every summer when it gets hot. That is why they closed the swim area to the public back in 1997 because the bacteria count was so high.
