Serving OB, the Peninsula and San Diego Beaches
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the passage of Prop D, the 30-foot height limit, a group of San Diego residents has launched a campaign to honor the historic vote by urging fellow residents to vote against the greatest threat in half of century to the height limit – Measure “C” on the November ballot.
A press conference was held to announce the celebration and campaign.

Charles Landon captured the entire press conference and all the speakers.
Here’s KUSI’s report by Dan Plante
and here is Fox5SanDiego’s report (they had to interview termed-out GOP councilman Cate for a “balanced” report)
Great job by everybody that participated in this rally on the OB Pier. The video by Charles Landon is spectacular and makes so many important points. The passionate speakers and group show how much they care and love their communities and San Diego. It is time for ALL San Diegans to understand why it is so important and VOTE NO on C!
No on C!
We don’t want no Waikiki!
We still wanna see the sea!
