Today John looks at some local measures. Both Measure O and Measure P, plus Proposition 5. Don't forget to vote! The John McGinness Show
Measure P is a bond measure that seeks to raise money to repair and upgrade the facilities of Santa Barbara City College, or SBCC. To understand the need for as well as the opposition to the measure, KCSB's Joyce Chi spoke to SBCC's Superintendent/President Dr. Erika Endrijonas and Trustee Jonathan Abboud, and op-ed author Denice Spangler Adams. -- Music used: Front Runner by Blue Dot Sessions
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.
The race's results will impact how Soledad's mayor is chosen — whether council members rotate the position or it's filled by someone voters elected directly.

Last night I attended the Poway City Council meeting. I have lots to talk about including Poway banning homeless encampments, the replacement of Barry Leonard, money in politics, and Life Time Fitness at The Farm. Plus, we discuss Archie Moore, San Diego Roads, Steve Garvey for CA Senate, Ed Franklin, and more. We will take your comments and questions in the San Diego Community Forum. It's Wednesday June 7, 2023. Here's what John Riley thinks: Poway City Council Observations I hadn't been to a city council meeting in a while. It was great hearing some of the issues hashed out by both public speakers and elected officials. As a podcaster, it was special meeting some folks that listen or watch my show. Nice to make those human connections. Poway chooses to replace Barry Leonard with an Appointment/Election Hybrid Poway has a history of appointing people to council to fill out a person's term. I figured this was the route they would take in replacing resigning councilmember Barry Leonard. The public was overwhelmingly for an election. Steve Vaus proposed a hybrid model. They will appoint someone with a pledge they will not run in the November 2024 election. Money in Poway Politics California's new SB1439 bill requires that elected officials recuse themselves from voting on issues that involve a donor that gave over $250. But $250 is the campaign donation limit for Poway. Does that mean SB1439 is moot in Poway? Or do indirect funds to PACs and non-profits count too? Life Time Fitness Update at The Farm in Poway The Poway City Council says they cannot do anything since there is no formal proposal before them. That's true. But locals know the developer's plan is to put in a Life Time Fitness center that likely violates the voter's will with Measure P. Mayor Vaus says there is a lot of misinformation swirling in social media. Is JRP part of the problem? LOL Poway Bans Homeless Encampments San Diego implemented a rule that authorities can remove homeless encampments if there is a shelter bed nearby. Now Poway has enacted a similar rule. After all, the San Diego homeless could end up in Poway. Archie Moore, Any Body Can Youth Foundation What a great fundraiser hosted by the ABC Youth Foundation for troubled youth. I attended a very well run and safe youth boxing match at St. Augustine High School. Bravo to the athletes, families and organizers that made this event possible. San Diego Finally Repairing Roads in Rancho Bernardo, Westwood The Witch Creek Fire was in 2007 but the damage to the roads has still not been resolved. The reconstruction has been over for some time, but then authorities had trouble coming up with the $5M to fund this project in the Westwood community of Rancho Bernardo. Why is it so hard to get local government officials to focus on their primary tasks? Steve Garvey for CA Senate? Former Dodger and Padre, Steve Garvey, is flirting with the idea of running for US Senate as a Republican. After his career ended in 1987, he considered running for senate, but his flirting with extramarital affairs derailed his political future. These days that's no longer a disqualifier. Ed Franklin Livestream Podcast, Tuesday June 13th at 7pm Join Ed and I as we discuss podcasting and a wide range of other topics. We'll take your questions and comments in the livestream.

Redwood Valley residents gathered in the firehouse on Saturday morning for a demonstration of a warning siren and updates on plans to increase the number of sirens to notify people in remote areas of a pending emergency. One siren, installed at the station in August 2021, has a range of about one square mile. Kerry Robinson is the chief of the Redwood Valley Calpella Fire District, which has 23 volunteers and four paid staff. He reflected on Saturday morning's test and how expanding the notification system has been a long-standing desire of the community. “My impression was, it was very, very loud,” he reported. “I walked outside and just went, oh, my. And then they stopped the siren, and you could just hear it echoing through the valley…This is one of the things I'm very very concerned about, being the fire chief here in Redwood Valley. The community is my number one priority, so I want to make sure the community is well taken care of. The community has spoken and spoken several times, asking when the project would be completed. And then the county stepped up and said, hey, we can help out with a grant. So I'm really looking forward to getting this project going. I was there in the 2017 fires. It was horrible.” The 2017 firestorm was on Supervisor Glenn McGourty's mind, too. “I'm really excited about this, because after the 2017 disaster here in Redwood Valley, one of the things everyone noted was, it would have been really great to have had some kind of warning,” he recalled. “And then we had failures of our cell system and everything else, so it really was tragic, the way that we couldn't get the word out. So this is part of a long term investment process that the county has gone through, first with PG&E funds, and then we supported Measure P, which passed.” Measure P was a ten-year quarter-cent general sales tax measure that voters approved in November. The Board of Supervisors referred it to the ballot. It's estimated to raise $4 million a year for essential services like ambulances and firefighters. Because it is a general tax, it is not a binding measure. Chief Robinson said there are several different ways to activate the sirens, either with cell phones or a landline or even manually, in the event of another collapse of key infrastructure. He said plans for exactly what it will cost to expand the system, precisely how many more sirens will be added, and where they will go, are still in the early phase. The current estimate for how many more sirens will be needed is four. So far, the project has cost $60,000, mainly from the PG&E disaster settlement. Charles Clugston is the president of CTC Mass Notification Systems, the distributor of the siren system. He shared some technical details. “We have four batteries in there, and it's solar powered,” he explained. “We're at 560 megahertz. So it's like a foghorn, so it travels really far. Like when someone drives up behind you, like a young kid, and they have a lot of bass in the car, you feel it. It's like that.” He added that even if the telephone pole holding up the siren were to snap, the siren would continue to sound. The system also includes a number of tests for deficits of its various components. The weekend's test relied largely on citizen feedback from residents who called in to report how well they heard it, from which parts of the valley. Clugston said there will be more testing of the siren's sound quality, combining the data from previous years and this weekend, to determine where the next sirens will be positioned. Brad Cox represents Whelan Engineering, which designs and implements the systems. He spoke about the local challenges of finding the right location for more sirens. In Northern California, with its ridges and valleys, “it is a task to get covered at times,” he noted. His company's units have a range of 5,800-6,100 feet, but the size of the unit is not always as much of a concern as the terrain, which dictates how far the sound can travel. For that reason, the system is designed around the targeted area. If there are ridges all the way around a site, he said, “There's no sense in putting the large one in, because (the sound) is not going over the ridge. It's going to go up and that's where it will stop. So some of the areas may have the smaller one, because it doesn't need the large one. It doesn't benefit them anymore. So that's part of our planning, is to find out where we need them, what size we need, and then develop a plan and deliver it back to the county.” There will be further analysis and public hearings before the project proceeds. The units will be “on the ground” within about three and a half months of placing an order, and then the installation and bureaucratic hurdles will begin. Clugston hopes to start installation within a year. Chief Robinson took an opportunity to talk up his department. “We'll get through this project here,” he predicted; “and we've got some additional fire engines that are showing up. We have a lot of new volunteers here at the fire station, so we're constantly working to make this fire department the best it can be for our community,” he declared.

December 5, 2022, Sarah Reith — An agreement between the county and its largest employee union is coming before the membership this week, with a side letter granting workers a bonus from the American Rescue Plan Act, or ARPA fund. And the “triple-demic,” or flu, RSV, and covid season, is compounded by staff shortages, including substitute teachers, which means administrative staff and even school principals have been taking on classroom duties. Final election results came in on Friday, with some shakeups in key races. The top three vote getters for the Fort Bragg City Council long term were newcomer Jason Godeke, with 26.14% of the vote, incumbent Marcia Rafanan, with 16.08%, and incumbent Tes s Albin-Smith, with just over 12%. Incumbent Lindy Peters swept the short-term race with 78.31%. In the Ukiah City Council race, newcomer Susan Sher netted the most votes, with 22.61%. Incumbents Juan Orozco and Mari Rodin stayed on, with 21.35% and 21.16%, respectively, edging out Mayor Jim Brown, who garnered 19.53%. John Redding, the only incumbent who ran for the Mendocino Coast Healthcare District board, won the lowest percentage of the vote, with 12.64%. James Jade Tippett won the highest, with 27.78%, followed by Lee Finney, who won 21.73%, and Susan Savage, with 19.96%. Two countywide taxes passed with slim margins, while a parcel tax in Hopland was defeated. Measure P, a quarter cent ten-year general tax, passed the threshold of a simple majority with 55.17% of the vote. The measure asked voters for their approval to use an estimated four million dollars a year to fund “essential services, including fire protection and prevention.” The language is non-binding. Measure O, a special sales tax to fund the libraries, passed with 60.82% of the vote. This tax essentially doubles the current eighth of a cent sales tax and removes the expiration date, making it effective until it is repealed. Measure N, a parcel tax intended to fund emergency medical response and fire protection services for the Hopland fire protection district, required a two-thirds majority and was defeated, with 56.7%. Medical woes are hitting schools hard, with substitute teachers struggling to provide instruction to classes where sometimes only half of the enrolled students are present. Doug Shald, the communications officer for Ukiah Unified School District, which has about 7,000 students, said the district is trying a variety of programs, from in-person and online tutoring, to after-school programs, to make up for learning loss caused by absences due to illness. County employees have contended with illness, too, with social workers and nurses putting in long hours at the height of the pandemic. Julie Beardsley is the president of SEIU 1021, which represents the largest county employee union. She's been part of the negotiating team advocating for the county to use some of its $16.8 million allotment from the American Rescue Plan Act for an employee bonus. Last week, negotiators representing SEIU 1021 and four other county labor unions signed side letters, separate from their pending contracts, awarding ARPA bonuses to employees. “The American Rescue Plan Act, ARPA, provided money to the counties to help offset the effects of the pandemic,” she said over the weekend. “This money was supposed to be designated for businesses who were in financial trouble. Also, a lot of counties designated it as a thank-you for the work that their employees did. Because you know, during the pandemic, people worked just so many hours overtime, and often at risk to their own health. I mean, we had nurses and social workers going into homes where they knew everyone had covid. And yet that was their job and so they went in and they did what they needed to do. So this money really was a thank-you. And the regular staff, full-time staff, will get $3,000. It will be taxable, so it won't be the full $3,000. And we also were able to secure a bonus for our extra help staff.” Employees who worked an average of 20-47 hours per pay period will get a bonus of $1500. SEIU 1021 has been in contract negotiations with the county since spring of this year. A tentative agreement has yet to be ratified. The union membership will hold meetings about it this week, and vote on whether or not they accept the terms, which have not been made public yet. The Board of Supervisors will hold a final vote before it can be approved. Beardsley thanked county CEO Darcie Antle and Deputy CEO Cherie Johnson for their work on the agreement, as well as the Board of Supervisors, whom she regards as pro-labor. “I appreciate that,” she concluded.

October 12, 2022--Host Karen Ottoboni speaks with several folks about local measures on the upcoming ballot. First, Michelle Savoy about Measure O, the Citizen's Library Initiative. Followed by Bill Brockenborough with Measure N for the Hopland Fire Protection District. Then lastly with Scott Cratty and Kerry Robinson about Measure P, County Essential Services Sales Tax.
August 17, 2022--Host Mari Rodin discusses emergency services, fire services, and the Measure P sales tax. Joining the discussion are Emergency Services Coordinator Garrett James, Mendocino Volunteer Fire Department Chief Dave Latoof, and Emily Tecchio County Coordinator for the Mendocino Fire Safe Council.
August 11, 2022 — The Fort Bragg City Council had second thoughts this week about its own plans for a sales tax that would have been used to fund workforce housing. The proposal for a ⅜ cent sales tax would have been a general tax, needing only a simple majority to pass and going into the city's general fund. An oversight committee was going to make sure the estimated $650,000 to $800,000 a year was used for the stated purpose, but that's not guaranteed with general taxes, as former interim city manager David Spaur, who now works as a consultant for the city, explained. “Having the funds go into the general fund, and then earmarking or designating them towards your specific purpose, allows you to build that account for your specific purpose, but in the event of an emergency, if the Council needed the funds for police, or for fire, or for flood or famine, those funds would be available to you,” he said. “But the oversight committee would want you to possibly replace those funds and backfill them at a later date, or find alternative sources of revenue to replace those funds.” Council member Tess Albin Smith asked Spaur what the city could do with less than a million dollars a year. She said $800,000 “does not seem like enough to do anything with workforce housing. So I'm wondering, are we just going to save it up until we get enough? What would we do with $800,000? What's the plan?” Spaur replied that the money “will allow you to leverage your housing community development funds for $800,000 into $1.6 million. So with a 50% match, you can double it. You can accrue those funds over several years. You can use those funds to purchase property, or a down payment on property, and then use grant funds and others to close on that property. So it's a good start. It's a good bite at the apple. Obviously, you're going to need a couple bites at the apple. You've got a housing crisis going on, and you need to find revenue sources specifically for workforce housing, for the workers, and have that housing be deed-restricted. You also need the funds. So creating some source that helps the city apply for other grants and leverage the funds is needed, whether it be this source or another source.” There will be two taxes on the county ballot in November. During public comment, Supervisor Dan Gjerde told the council that he's worried that a third ballot measure asking for a tax would doom all three. Fractions of two already-existing taxes are sunsetting: Measure B, a special tax to fund mental healthcare facilities; and Measure A, for the libraries. Library supporters got enough signatures to put a quarter cent proposal, Measure O, on November's ballot. The Board of Supervisors is also asking voters to approve Measure P, another quarter cent sales tax for fighting fire and fire prevention. Gjerde was key in getting the Board of Supervisors to drop its original idea to include funding water projects, in part by arguing that the Board does not have the political credibility of a citizens group. “I think this is a great, worthy proposal that you have,” he said. “My concern is the timing….One thing you should know is, in the last couple of years, California courts have ruled that if the voters collect signatures and put a tax on the ballot for a specific purpose, it only takes a 50% (plus one majority) to pass. So the library folks have figured that out, and that's part of the reason why they went directly to the voters. First of all, they gathered support by getting people to sign up to put it on the ballot. Secondly, they know it only takes 50% (plus one majority to pass) and they can guarantee how the money is being spent. So with this proposal, if there was a sales tax, if the voters here in Fort Bragg, if we were to collect signatures and put it on the ballot, it could potentially be ready for the next election. At the latest, that would be March of 2024, the presidential primary…I actually think there's an advantage, when you have fewer things on the ballot. I think people are better able to understand the proposal itself. And I think they are therefore more likely to vote yes. I think if they don't know enough about a proposal, they're more likely to vote no. Anyway, again, I'm just concerned that if there are three taxes on this election, they're more likely to all go down in defeat.” Mayor Bernie Norvell cited the lack of trust in government at the county as he agreed with most of his colleagues that now is the wrong time to ask voters to pay more taxes. “I'm going to fall in line here,” he said. “I think the timing is just not right for a general tax. I don't think there's trust in government right now. If you have followed the county, they got a lot of heat. I don't think there's trust with the county right now. I do think they'll get their library tax. I hope they get their fire tax. I think we're in a better position than the county with government trust, and I would hate to see this project get a stain on it by not getting the necessary votes, and I just don't think it will. With looming recession, inflation, I don't think it's a great time right now to be taxing people. Again, if you go back and watch some of the county meetings, that was a lot of the discussion, is why now, why more taxes. If we do shoot this down tonight, it may send a message of goodwill, that we understand the economy, and what people are struggling with…I'm just not going to support this. I'm going to recommend no action on this item. But Mr. Spaur, you did everything we asked you to do…I think a year and a half or even two years ago, when we started this, and even at the budget meeting, I think we were right then. I just think so much has changed since then. I just don't want this to reflect on you at all. Because this was our idea, and I think you did an amazing job putting the report together.”
This week's radio show features guest Nancy Pemberton of the Committee for Law Enforcement Accountability Now (CLEAN) on the Sonoma County Supervisors Closed-Doors Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Deputy Sheriff Association (DSA) that weakens the 2020 Measure P powers given to the Independent Office of Law Enforcement Review and Outreach (IOLERO for Sheriff accountability. It is a mouthful, but well worth your attention. IOLERO was formed by Sonoma County in response to the killing of 13-year-old Andy Lopez carrying a plastic toy rifle by a Sheriff's deputy in 2013.

During a press conference Wednesday at The Fresno Memorial Auditorium, located on 2425 Fresno St. in Fresno, CA, councilpersons, Miguel Arias, Luis Chavez and Nelson Esparza proposed Measure V to fund services and improvements for facilities used by local veterans. The auditorium was built in 1935; asbestos is still in the walls of the facility. The HVAC system is in a makeshift status--hence, the reason why the building is unable to cool during Fresno's extraordinarily hot summer season. Measure V would supersede Measure P expenditure restrictions dedicated specifically for parks. For instance, the expensive restructuring of the antiquated, historical auditorium can utilize Measure P funds to fix the structures in and outside the building: uprooted flooring, asbestos, slipping roof tiles and replacement of original electrical work. It will cost millions of dollars just to fix the building; yet, veterans still need personal services and housing. Although it would cause an incremental tax raise for city of Fresno residents, 1/8th of a penny, Measure V, would generate $9.8 million per year, providing a permanent revenue source for veteran services and facilities, for such needs as housing, transportation and mental health services, to name a few.

Home to the Port of Los Angeles (one of the busiest seaports in the world and the leading container port in the U.S.), the San Pedro community consists of just over 12 square miles with a population of approximately 80,000. However, as the gateway for international commerce, this historic community occupies a singularly unique place in the Greater Los Angeles region. With a mission to “profitably produce developments that improve the quality of urban life,” we’re joined by Wayne Ratkovich, Founder and Chairman of The Ratkovich Company, to discuss their latest project, West Harbor, and its role in current efforts to re-brand San Pedro as a historical community with new and exciting employment opportunities and a high and ever-improving quality of life.” (https://buildsanpedro.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/San-Pedro-2018-Report-5.0-FINAL.pdf). Spurred by initiatives such as Measure P, the waterfront community will see over $1 billion in infrastructure improvements by the Port of LA and another $500 million in private investment in the area, with projects such as West Harbor playing a vital role. Wayne Ratkovich and his team, over the course of four decades, have simultaneously transformed and preserved the urban landscape of Los Angeles. From the historic preservation of the Oviatt Building in Downtown Los Angeles to the redevelopment of Howard Hughes’ original aircraft hangers in West Los Angeles, iconic projects like the Wiltern in Mid City and The Bloc in DTLA, to projects in Alhambra, the Ratkovich company has touched every corner of the city.

Fresno Building Healthy Communities says the effort to invest in city parks has been a long time coming, in fact, nearly a decade of work to raise public awareness. Youth advocates worked to highlight the disparity between conditions in the northern parts of Fresno, and the southern parts of Fresno, where facilities were in major need of repair. That’s why President and CEO Sandra Celedon praised Thursday’s appellate court ruling to overturn the need for a two-thirds majority for passage. “A democracy is about counting on the voice of people and the power of people. And the people have prevailed,” she says. The organization put its support behind bringing Measure P to the ballot in 2018. A majority of voters, 52%, backed a three-eighths cent sales tax in Fresno to go towards funding park improvements, job training and after school programs. On the other side of the legal fight is the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association. Director of Legal Affairs Timothy Bittle says the firm has never
The Bay Area passed a number of local measures related to civilian oversight of police this election. This means an increase in access for what citizens get to know, and get to do, about issues within their local police departments – including policy changes and police misconduct. We look at the recently passed Measure P, out of Sonoma County, which increases the powers of the Independent Office of Law Enforcement Review and Outreach (IOLERO). And the public outcry for police accountability, dating back to the 2013 fatal shooting of 13-year-old Andy Lopez.

Incumbent Poway City Councilman Barry Leonard was my guest, and we discussed a range of Poway issues. Barry shared his experience getting into politics, his original appointment to the city council, his relationship with Steve Vaus and winning his first election. We discussed some of Barry’s goals for his next term including managing the city’s finances prudently, seeing through the development of the new Mickey Cafagna Community Center and other city projects in Poway. We discussed Poway’s water system, Espola Rd lines and walkway and the story behind Cox Cable and AT&T in Poway. Barry was especially passionate about The Farm in Poway and seeing Measure P passed. We discussed his current efforts to organize cities to cooperatively tell Sacramento politicians to back off and let local government manage local land issues. We pondered various scenarios to fill city council seats if Steve Vaus wins his Supervisor election. We also discussed the Poway Center for the Performing Arts, the story of the veteran’s housing originally planned for Twin Peaks Rd and the Outpost and Commons projects along Poway Rd. Affordable housing, district elections, Villa de Vida and much more are included in this episode. #JohnRileyProject #Poway #Barry Leonard JRP0178 Barry Leonard Info: Barry Leonard for Poway City Council: https://barryleonardforpoway.com/ Barry Leonard Campaign Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/barryleonardforpowaycitycouncil John Riley Project Info: Bookings?

Chris Olps is back for another podcast episode where we discuss all things Poway including his campaign for Poway City Council. I always enjoy my discussions with Chris because we cover so many issues at incredibly detailed levels. Chris always does his research and brings plenty to the table to discuss. We talked at length about Poway Road development including the Fairfield project, The Commons, The Outpost, and the shopping centers at the intersection of Poway Rd and Pomerado Rd. We dove in deep on Measure P and Kevin McNamara’s plan to put housing in at the former site of the Stoneridge Country Club. We went over various scenarios with City Council should Mayor Steve Vaus be elected, and a vacancy exists on the council. Chris shared his thoughts on Proposition 22 and the plight of Uber drivers. We even did our own Poway restaurant review, talked about video games and which shows we are streaming. There was so much in this 3-hour interview. We hope you enjoy it. #JohnRileyProject #ChrisOlps #Poway JRP0175 Chris Olps Info: Chris Olps Campaign Website: https://www.olps4poway.com/ Chris Olps on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/olps4poway John Riley Project Info: Bookings?

People are already starting to vote, so I thought I would share my choices for the California Propositions and Measure P in Poway. I share my opinions on the proposition process as a general idea and also my philosophy of respecting individual rights in my choices. We discuss the downside of propositions with California’s choice to make gay marriage illegal with Prop 8 in 2008. We then go through each of props from 14 thru 25 covering issues related to voting rights, taxes, scientific research, rent control and independent contractors. Richard Rider and his “California vs the Other States” analysis plays a key role in much of my decision making on the propositions. I also go into detail on Poway’s Measure P about the conversion of the Stoneridge Country Club into the Farm in Poway. #JohnRileyProject #CaliforniaPropositions #FarminPoway JRP0171 Referenced Articles: California vs the Other States by Richard Rider: http://riderrants.blogspot.com/2012/11/ca-vs-other-49-states-revised-11812.html Ballotpedia CA Proposition Overview including list of propositions that didn’t make the ballot: https://ballotpedia.org/California_2020_ballot_propositions John Riley Project Info: Bookings?

Today we hopscotched across a range of issues including an election preview here in Poway, plus thoughts on masks, the economy and the Padres 2020 start. Many of our listeners and viewers enjoy that I cover local issues, so I also offered comments on the potential sale of the Poway Center for the Performing Arts, the Poway protesters, Rabbi Goldstein and some shoutouts to some Poway personalities.

Jimmy Karam joined us to discuss his campaign for Poway School Board. Jimmy is a husband, father, retired US Naval Officer, business consultant and economics professor. During our conversation we covered so much ground including the Black in PUSD Instagram account, and a similar account regarding LTBTQ, that discussed racism and discrimination in our local schools. We discussed the Poway Unified School District’s budget crisis given the forecast of significant deficit spending, the possibility of lower revenues and the financial challenges with implementing COVID-19 initiatives. We dove into the hot topic of Poway Unified potentially taking over ownership and operation of the Poway Center for the Performing Arts. Other topics in our discussion included the plan for Fall 2020, distance learning, the Measure P bond, Poway High football and much more. We also discuss a range of other people and places including Poway, Rancho Bernardo, Sabre Springs, Carmel Mountain Ranch, Morning Creek Elementary, Creekside Elementary, Meadowbrook Middle School, Pomerado Elementary, Midland Elementary, Valley Elementary, Garden Road Elementary, District E, Area E, safe spaces, mental skills training, football, Gavin Newsom, teachers union, PFT, Poway Federation of Teachers, equity, equality, Palomar College, Adam Smith, Wealth of Nations, online learning, smaller classroom sizes, personalized learning #JohnRileyProject #Karam4PUSD #PUSD #Poway #Jimmy4PUSD JRP0143 Jimmy Karam Info: Jimmy Karam campaign website: https://www.karam4pusd.com/ Jimmy Karam campaign Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Karam4PUSD/ Jimmy Karam campaign Twitter: https://twitter.com/Karam4PUSD John Riley Project Info: Bookings?

Most people think of school choice as opting to direct tax dollars to private schools, particularly religious schools. My story was the complete opposite. I share stories of my youth at a parochial school and the difficult process I went through to transfer to a public, government school. We then expand the conversation to cover the pros and cons to school choice, including addressing many of the common objections. We share how school choice (in a very limited fashion) played a role in my failed attempt to win election on my local school board. I also discuss how this topic was a seminal political issue and largely shaped how I see the world of politics today. We also discuss a range of other people and places including Our Lady of Angels, Mills High School, Burlingame High School, Mercy High School, Serra High School, Bellarmine College Preparatory, Lynn Swann, Tom Brady, Barry Bonds, Kevin McNamara, Gaby Dow, Steve Dow, Millbrae, Burlingame, UC San Diego, UCSD, Walter Mondale, Michael Dukakis, Milton Friedman, Donald Trump, Betsy DeVos, Khan Academy, Spring Charter Schools, Poway Unified, Measure P, Billion Dollar Bond, COVID, Gavin Newsom, St. Michael’s, GI Bill, Westview High School, Poway High School, Valley Elementary, ROTC, Andrew Yang, Pursuit of Happiness #JohnRileyProject #SchoolChoice #vouchers #PursuitofHappiness #ProChoice JRP0135 Our Sponsors: PowayStore.com: https://powaystore.com/ Happiness76.com: https://happiness76.com/ Trigger Energy: https://triggerenergy.com/ John Riley Project Info: Bookings?

We are excited to air this week's 2 part episode with Livermore's own Karl Wente. We have spent the last two seasons building a voice for regional maturity and sitting down with fifth-generation winemaker Karl was genuinely insightful. With the vote just one day from wrapping up, we make sure to spend some time on MEASURE P and the value of tourism here in the valley. The Wente family has been stewards of this region for over a hundred years, here first hand what the family believes is needed for our region to thrive. We also dive into our local newspaper (The Independent) discussing the owner's attempt at halting regional maturity with her NO on P campaign. We take strides in the right direction on a regional identity as Collin and Karl discuss the possibilities of Cabernet Franc being our new local staple...Which Karl describes as a beautiful love child of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. You won't want to miss Karl talk about his friend and mentor 'Don' Julio Covarrubias. There is truly a little bit of everything in this episode, and we hope you enjoy it. Get out and VOTE YES ON P - Yes on Progress.
The Poway school bond campaign organizers are putting on the full court press to convince voters to approve the bond. We discover who the special interests are that fund the campaign. We also take a look at the funding sources for one of the Poway Unified school board members. What we found was amazing, alarming, and sadly sometimes not surprising at all. Big shout out to Chris Cruse that runs the Facebook group South and North Poway Votes for uncovering much of the data presented in this podcast episode. #PowayUnified #MeasureP #PowaySchoolBond #FollowtheMoney #TJZane JRP0113 Chris Cruse Info: South and North Poway Votes: https://www.facebook.com/groups/SouthPowayVotes/ San Diego County Registrar of Voters Info: Website: https://www.sdvote.com/ John Riley Project Info: Bookings?

Feel good story out of Roseville as a taxi driver saves a 92 year old from falling victim to a $25k scam. Measure P failed due to lack of a carve out for public safety but a new proposal addresses that... and it has at least one vocal opponent.

On the heels of an election where ads included all kinds of accusations and a commercial of one male representative in high heels, Paul and Craig talk about the possibility of walking out politics with civility so we can get to solutions. The battle over Measure P, in which former adversaries of Measure G came together, is an example of a divisive issue where community leaders perhaps made choices against the good of the community, rather than looking for a solution. To read more about that, check out this article in Fresno Bee. In this era of Trumpian politics, can there be civil discussion around the issues of our day?
An eventful Midterm Election was held Tuesday. Listen as our President/CEO Nathan Ahle and Vice-President of Government Affairs Nathan Alonzo breakdown the local 2018 midterm election results. Ahle and Alonzo dive into an analysis of the city council, state assembly and senate races, and Measure A and Measure P results. Measure P reaction: “The message now is one of reconciliation and one of bringing the community together and recognizing the need for some of these improvements but also the need for balance,” said Ahle. “The Chamber plans to really take a leadership role in starting those conversations and welcoming everyone to the table. Certainly, the need for park improvements is as true today, as they were yesterday and the same is true for publics safety. So I think now its incumbent on all of us to come together and find a way to make it happen.” A special thanks to the team at One Putt Broadcasting for providing us with recording space and professional sound engineering.
