Leucadia Blog: Streetscape Option

Streetscape Option

There is one option for consideration in Wednesday's council meeting staff report on the streetscape and here is a note from the in box:

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!

As a present to Leucadia, please plan on showing up to this Wednesday night council meeting or at least sending an email to all the Council Members voicing your support for the project. This project will be great for your quality of life, the environment, the City’s financial health, and your property values.

For those of you that have stepped up in the past for Leucadia, I appreciate it. For those of you who haven’t yet, Its time to give back to your community by taking just a few minutes of your time. Please act. We have been working on this project for over 6 years and it will still be another 2 years until anything is built. Hopefully the 90 trees with irrigation can happen sooner.

Signed,
Infrastructure Ivan

Build at grade crossings in Leucadia now! Make NCTD or Amtrak fix their eyesore easement on 101 and Vulcan. Make them plant trees for the ones that they cut down. Make them build a worthy bike lane between La Costa Blvd to Encinitas Blvd. It should look as good as s Solana Beach. Make COE put a sidewalk from La Costa to Encinitas Blvd as well. I am not a fan of the round about solution for North 101. MORE TREES!

Kudos to all citizens, staff and council for moving this much needed project foward. Diane, your awesome! Those that say City staff are slackers are wrong. Diane Langager worked her ass off for Leucadia.

About Leucadia

Leucadia is a funky little beach community located in North San Diego county in southern California. Leucadia is the north section of the city of Encinitas.

English spiritualists settled the small coastal community of Leucadia in 1870, and are reputed to have danced, in diaphanous white robes in the little Roadside Park (Leucadia Blvd and Hwy 101).

The spiritualists are the reason so many of the streets are named after Greek gods and goddesses. Leucadia is Greek for "a sheltered place." Heritage Eucalyptus trees, planted in the 1880s, still grace the highway. When President Roosevelt passed through Leucadia in an open car during the Depression, local children climbed the Eucalyptus trees to wave to him.

Change happens slowly in this nostalgic little California beach town. In lieu of fast food restaurants and franchise chain stores, Leucadia has two miles of Mom 'n Pop businesses, and that's the way everyone likes it. The town war cry is "Keep Leucadia Funky."

Leucadia played an active role in the rebirth of the classic Highway 101 shield, restored in 1997, and was part of the successful 101 Campaign to have Highway 101 declared an historic route.

Leucadia is experiencing growing pains and culture clash in these first decades of the 21st century...
