Last night, Wednesday March 16th, the Ocean Beach Planning Board voted against the current proposed ordinance on Medical Marijuana dispensaries. By a vote of 6 to 1, the Board in a Special Meeting voted against the measure because of its overly stringent restrictions. They in essence agreed with critics of the ordinance, some of whom assert that the measure would effectively ban all dispensaries in OB and throughout most of San Diego. The ordinance is expected to go before the full San Diego City Council on March 28th.

For the 2011 OB Planning Board Elections the following people have officially announced their candidacies:

District 1 — Nancy Taylor (incumbent), Tom Gawronski
District 2 — Scott Waschitz (incumbent)
District 3 — No candidate
District 4 — Craig Klein (incumbent)
District 5 — Brittany Taylor
District 6 — Jane Gawronski (incumbent)
District 7 — No candidate

At times the local planning committee for Ocean Beach acts in relative obscurity. Not by choice, however, for the individuals who serve on the 14-member Board want all the attention they can get. And rightly so – for the Board – which holds two open meetings every month – is really the ONLY publicly-elected body in OB, and is the expression of the people’s will in our little village. It’s annual election – which is this Tuesday, March 15th – is open to every resident, property owner or businessperson in Ocean Beach.
