I enjoy covering local news issues, so we will be doing a deep dive on the latest with the planned Life Time Fitness at The Farm in Poway. Some locals are opposing the project and micromanaging the details. Plus, we will discuss the upcoming presidential debate, SCOTUS social media ruling, and Trump on Green Cards. Got a question or comment? Drop your take in the live chat on Facebook, X, or YouTube and I will get you involved in the San Diego Community Forum. It's Wednesday, June 26, 2024. This is what John Riley thinks. Developments at Life Time Fitness at The Farm in Poway Constant Micromanaging of Life Time Fitness (square footage, traffic, wages, parking, fees, etc.) Measure P reset New Life Time plan considered by City Council July 16thWill Council approve package? Approve it to go to ballot? Or reject it?Updated application submitted May 29th. Not a minor modification. Will require a majority vote of the people. (Nov 5th) Chris Cruse recommended contacting the council and making memes. Good Idea! Sent email to council, everyone responded except my representative! Read letter. Share responses. Poway City Council (councilmembers@poway.org):Seems there is another movement of opposition to the Life Time Fitness facility in The Farm. Certain community organizers are encouraging Powegians to write to the City Council expressing opposition.I would like to offer an alternative point of view.I support Property Rights. People across Poway shouldn't have the right micromanage how a property owner chooses to manage his/her property.America's founding values are expressed in our inalienable rights of Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. Property rights are a natural extension of your right to your own life. If one cannot use their property resources for productive purposes (particularly if there are no damages created to others), then an interference in one's property is an interference in one's right to their own life.Legally speaking, I realize that the Measure P situation likely means that it will need to go to a public vote. But from a moral point of view, I object.Also…  the proposed plan by Life Time looks pretty good to me and my family. In fact, we were just discussing this over the weekend. Both my wife and daughter are hopeful the project is approved. They like all of the proposed amenities.Thank you.John RileyResponsesCaylin FrankHi John, Nice to hear from you. Thank you for your thoughts. My understanding is that the voter initiative requires major modifications to go back to the voters so I feel that needs to be honored. But I understand your perspective on it. Hope you are doing well! CaylinBrian PepinHi John, Hope you're doing well! Thanks for emailing. I always appreciate your perspective; I'll take it into consideration when LifeTime presents their proposal to the City Council this summer. Thank you. -BrianAnita EdmonstonHi John. Good hearing from you – I hope you're doing well! And thanks for weighing in on the Life Time Fitness proposal from your point of view. I appreciate your insights. As you are aware, the application is currently under review by city staff and council has not yet received a report or recommendation. I will be taking all input into consideration if/when the matter comes before council. In case you didn't already receive the attached information directly from the city, I am including it here. It provides additional background on the application, the process, and its relationship to The Farm development. Best regards, Anita EdmondsonSteve VausThanks John - good to hear from you. SV Peter DeHoff (my representative in District 3) No Response. LOL Made a meme.Support Property rights. How to frame it?First political issue I considered was School Choice.Then abortion while in college.Adult topic! (some discussion at Catholic Church as a kid)Growing up!Your body is your own. You own you. Your choice.Not that different from School Choice issue.

Pursuing Happiness in a Housing Crisis, JRP0278

How can you pursue your happiness in a housing crisis? Or better yet, how can you not violate the right of others to do the same? Housing Crisis We examine the housing crisis and the unintended consequences of central planning. Despite do-gooders' best efforts to make housing affordable, we have homelessness and insane housing prices. We explore the $1 million per unit “low income” housing units and the regulations that make them so expensive. It's nice to see open-minded people changing the rules in San Diego. A 443-unit apartment building is going up in downtown San Diego near Petco Park. This complex will only have fifty-two parking spots. Where will people park? Can this work? It sure can for renters that will be enjoying rental prices 20-25% less expensive than comparable units in the same area. This building with micro-units will serve as a quasi-affordable housing complex. Then we take a closer look at the Oak Knoll housing project in Poway that is under review by the City Council. Local activists Chris Cruse and Hiram Soto have objections to this “sardine can” housing complex. Is Poway “governed by the whim of developers” or is allowing this construction consistent with property rights? Are property owners and developers allowed to pursue their happiness, or should their rights to do so be violated? SCOTUS and School Choice I don't know about you, but I am incredibly pleased about the Supreme Court's recent decision to allow school vouchers at private religious schools. Unlocking government's near monopoly on education will open up a wide range of innovative schools offering a range of specialized curricula. If Pell Grants and the GI Bill can be used as a voucher at private, religious universities, then it seems consistent to allow school vouchers to do the same in K-12 education. Netflix Series Dark I really enjoyed series about four families in a small German town dealing with missing children, complicated relationships, a suspect nuclear power plant, and mysterious caves. This show took it all to a great sci-fi level by introducing a time travel plot line that made the story lines complex and enjoyable. Philosophically I was disappointed with their focus on fate and determinism, but free will wins at the end of the final season. I strongly recommend this series. Critics widely praise it: IMDB 8.7, Rotten Tomatoes 95%. English overdubs and subtitles work very well. #housingcrisis #schoolchoice #dark Thank you!

Marian Kim-Phelps is putting forward 4 policies at PUSD to address hate: organizing students to pledge to end hate, encouraging difficult conversations, adults modeling good behavior and speaking out to the injustice. I speak to these policies and also discuss individualism vs collectivism as it relates to hate crimes. Chris Cruse, a community activist in Poway, is doing analysis on Poway's water and sewer rates and asking tough questions about the City's accounting procedures and if funds are intermingled with the City's operating budget. I discuss the City of Poway's upcoming water and sewer rate workshop and pontificate on issues related to the economics of water and innovations to provide more water to our region. Amit Asaravala put forth a guest column titled Climate Change Begins at Home where he explores green technologies that homeowners and local government officials can take advantage of right away to not only make for a cleaner planet but also to save a tremendous amount of money. I explain my own personal story with solar panels and the huge financial savings we are enjoying. I also comment extensively on our family's embrace of electric vehicle technology and the financial benefits that are available. No conversation with environmental technology is complete without commentary on the government subsidies that are available and whether such subsidies are fiscally prudent, economically sound or even moral.

I was pleased to have Poway Mayoral candidate Emily Johnson as a guest on the John Riley Project.  Emily is young, bright and wants to offer a new perspective for our city.  Emily believes it is important for Poway to retain it's country charm and not allow the Poway Rd Corridor project to have high density housing to a degree that transforms our city into a North Park or a Mira Mesa.  Ms. Johnson believes that young people need to take an active role in shaping their community and their quality of life.  She is stepping up and doing something about it. Emily Johnson expanded on the challenges that young people face in Poway and in the greater San Diego area.  The high price of housing and education are significant hurdles that often create a catch-22 for young adults.  Many young people cannot afford to go to college without amassing tremendous debt, but cannot get a good job with a good salary without going to college.  So many struggle trying to earn a living as a student or in a modest job, but have difficulty finding affordable places to live, particularly in Poway.  Meanwhile, many experienced their first election in 2016, became discouraged with the result of the electoral college process and now some believe their vote does not matter.  Ms. Johnson wants to educate and motivate young people so they become engaged in the political process. We spoke at length about social media and it's power as a communication tool.  Emily Johnson and her peers are extremely active on social media, often consuming much of the traditional news via these mediums.  We discussed the potential of social media to empower candidates to reach voters and cities to reach citizens.  Numerous national politicians were cited that use both social media and traditional media effectively to connect with people and share their message. Emily feels great compassion for the homeless and believes there need to be programs to help them get on their feet.  Some of Emily's former classmates at Poway High are homeless and still living here in Poway today.  She supports a jobs center that offers vocational training, resume development and clothing resources for interviews. We covered many other topics including the challenges facing the LGBTQ community, the Poway Senior Center, South Poway Votes, water polo, Bernie Sanders, Donald Trump, Ben Sasse, Thomas Massie, Ronald Reagan, the high price of college text books, Chris Cruse, Yuri Bohlen, Poway voting districts, her dog Yaz, entertainment options for young people in Poway, tattoos, piercings, equitable representation in government, liberty, America, Poway Bowling Alley, the Confederate Flag controversy at Poway High, the Green Monster and the joy of spending quality time at many of our Poway parks.
