Hello
John,
** While the real world keeps turning, the political world keeps spinning in place.

Four years ago, the Mayor was “negotiating ([link removed]) ” with the Chargers in public. Turns out, he was also “negotiating ([link removed]) ” with SoccerCity in private.
Three years ago, the Friends of SDSU took their case directly ([link removed]) to the voters of San Diego.
The City Attorney didn’t like that, so she tried to block the vote on SDSU West. She lost ([link removed]) .
Two years ago, the voters approved the SDSU West ([link removed]) ballot measure and the new vision ([link removed]) for Mission Valley.
Two weeks ago, SDSU delivered a final executed Purchase and Sale Agreement ([link removed]) , after long ([link removed]) and exhaustive ([link removed]) negotiations.
Today, instead of putting the agreement to a council vote, the City Attorney asked us to spend $150,000 more on attorneys and consultants so they can continue “negotiations ([link removed]) .”
Yet, in testimony, the City Attorney’s office admitted that, “the legal work is done” and that “we have received a final agreement” from SDSU.
But the voters of San Diego can’t see it and the Council can’t vote on it?
What alternative universe are we living in?
I have no idea why some of my colleagues have faith in and finances for $300/hr attorneys who are a cause of the delay, and not the solution. But I’m not that gullible with taxpayer dollars. I want to thank Councilmember Vivian Moreno for joining me in voting “No” on this nonsense.
The City is facing a $300+ million budget shortfall ([link removed]) .

The voters want a regional river park ([link removed]) , they want new jobs and an economic development engine ([link removed]) , they want to give thousands of San Diego’s youth badly needed ([link removed]) access to an expanded university campus ([link removed]) , and they want to preserve basic municipal services by filling a giant hole in the City’s budget ([link removed]) .
**
Let the Council vote. Up or down. Now.
------------------------------------------------------------
Let’s get the deal done!

Barbara Bry
Candidate for Mayor of San Diego
