As you may already know, a discussion for the possible purchase of the Pacific View Elementary School site by the City of Encinitas is on the agenda for the city council meeting this Wednesday, April 10, 2013. I am writing to you in hope that you will send the city council members an email urging them to find a way to purchase the Pacific View property, thus preserving a part of our history for all of us.
Please write to our city council before Wednesday and urge them to explore every option they have to purchase the Pacific View site. You can reach all five Encinitas city council members by sending an email to our City Clerk, Kathy Hollywood.
Her email address is: khollywood@encinitasca.gov. Thank you in advance for your effort to help save and preserve this special property.
It goes without saying that at the same time, the future of the oldest building in Encinitas, our 130 year old Schoolhouse, will be assured.
Sincerely,
Lois Aufmann
Encinitas Historical Society, Docent
*the meeting starts in an hour as of this posting so if you feel strongly about Pacific View get down to city hall tonight.
someone needs to step up and buy this land for our kids. Timmy doesn't care what happens to it.
ReplyDeleteI had a dream that Eddie Veder stood tall and made it into a place like The Hendrix Experience Museum in Seattle.
Eddie would go!
The money is being put into the lavish 6 figure retirement pensions of the slack city administrators. Muir is an example of the gross waste of money being doled out to these blood suckers - you think he is going to reform the pension system?? Fox guarding the henhouse syndrome here.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. All the money's going to the pensions. There is no money for any other project.
ReplyDeleteThey've agreed to consider the idea - the school district and city have to have the property appraised. Wasn't there some provision of a public entity purchasing it at a discounted price due to its prior public use? I suppose those provisions had time constraints which may have expired - take the pensions used for the fat cat city Administrators and put that money to public use - not private entitlement. The public sector has become an exorbitant trough for these pension hogs.
