It isn't the stink at the Cove that is going to drive tourism away it is the in-action of the La Jolla Town Council and the La Jolla Merchants Association to correct an evil injustice done to a citizen of fifty years here in San Diego. This 'will" effect your economy "if" nothing is done to bring justice and to correct this "Criminal Enterprise" masquerading as "Law and Order"..

The close up beauty of marine life (Pelicans, Cormorants and Sea Lions) is spectacular, but so is the aroma of nature. La Jolla Cove is part of a State Marine Reserve. The Cove is also part of an Area of Sensitive Biological Significance; that may require special permits to allow, much less, concentrate urban runoff in to the Marine Reserve. Mechanical washing of the bluffs could create a concentration of biological waste with potential negative impacts on sea life as well as swimmers. Pray for a good rain storm and huge waves to wash to bluffs naturally; and be glad an early 20th century concept to make the La Jolla Cove and Bay a large harbor by extending a concrete sea wall from Alligator Head toward the Scripps Pier failed along with the La Jolla Yacht Club…otherwise you would be smelling and listening to diesel engines and jet skis instead of Sea Lions and Gulls.

If la Jolla ever had a jewel, its our awesomely interesting and wild cove… and the sea lions, seals, cormorants, and pelicans are the golden geese laying that treasure. The underwater beauty in part owes much to these new characters. Entertaining harebrained notions cleaning off these haul-outs and chasing off our wildlife are short-sighted. Tormenting this beleaguered wildlife is criminal. An actual federal case.

I hate to be a one-issue voter, but this might be the exception. I'm deeply dismayed at the apparent lack of concern/action from Lightner's office on this issue. If they are doing anything, it's in stealth mode. What's the point of that?
