    “There’s going to be more development here. There’s going to be more density here. Our public transit is not keeping up, yet we are losing roads.”

    Soooo.... Put that 14mil you want to spend into transit.

    The city should destroy patches of the pavement and replace them with mini parks with furniture and other accomodations to stop at the start any initiative to turn that again to space for cars

    Drivers are short sighted morons that should not be listened to. They'd pave everything and then whine about traffic.

    Video shows people walking, biking and overall having fun outside

    The Wikipedia Page about the park “Sunset Dunes”

    Apparently it was the biggest pedestrianisation project in California history. Would be a real shame if that ballot initiative destroys the park

    What exactly does the ballot do? It sounds like the people have already spoken

    All those visitors enjoying the park and basically one guy with a $5 website to make it 'controversial.' Advertising has ruined the news.

    Congress would allow the fledgling networks free use of taxpayer-owned airwaves in exchange for one public service. That public service would be one hour of air time set aside every night for informational broadcasting, or what we now call the evening news. Congress, unable to anticipate the enormous capacity television would have to deliver consumers to advertisers, failed to include in its deal the one requirement that would have changed our national discourse immeasurably for the better. Congress forgot to add that under no circumstances could there be paid advertising during informational broadcasting.

    Newsroom said it years ago. It's even worse now.

    I find it interesting that the locals don't want it this time around.

    Looks so cold there. It's 102 in the Midwest. It's only 97 in Phoenix.

    Pacific current off the coast keeps it cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Who knows how long it will last now though.

    I know I’ve been saying “this weather is abnormal” for years but the Bay Area weather lately is so completely different than normal that I’m kind of reeling. Not that it’s unexpected or anything, just super surreal and sad.

    Be hilarious for the next couple of years as the unprecedented super el niño (super is +2°C surface temp, current measurement is +6°C) causes previously unseen levels of air pressure and current fuckery. 😁

    Good grief. Why would anybody want a constant stream of cars whizzing by right next to the beach?
