San Diego panel deadlocks on ballot measure repealing paid parking in Balboa Park 2-2 vote essentially kills proposal, leaving council to deal with Feb. 9 decision whether to suspend paid parking for city residents but continue charging non-residents

Council president La Cava and Council President Pro Tem Lee are focused on the structural imbalances that have plagued the San Diego budget for decades. San Diegans benefit when our local leaders are brave enough to stand up for policies that work.

Comparison of land use value in Memphis showing buildings at $45.39 per sq. ft., parking at $1.35, and roads at -$0.81, urging efficient land use.

Comparison of land use value in Memphis showing buildings at $45.39 per sq. ft., parking at $1.35, and roads at -$0.81, urging efficient land use.

Which kind of land use is the most financially productive: roads, parking, or buildings?

Looking at this comparison, it isn't even close.

More relevant than ever to critically assess how we use our land to benefit the community.

Notably, gas taxes only cover 25%-80% of road repair and maintenance. The shortfall places a financial burden on the budget that prevents the city from prioritizing transit, parks, and emergency services.
