San Diego’s pension investments tied to luxury trips?

Great questions, Cassander. They are questions I should have asked.-dH

Steady as she goes on proposed Balboa Park project

Thanks, Cassander. I am waiting on a PRA to come back regarding Jacobs. As for One San Diego, I appreciate you bringing this to my attention. I contacted the mayor's office as well as the non-profit and am waiting to hear back. I appreciate the info.-dH

San Diego council guilty of limiting access?

Hiya Nostalgic. You got it right. Sorry if I wasn't clear enough. The city argued that the citizen's group needed to file what I think was essentially a cease and desist order before filing the writ. The trial judge agreed. Yet, while true in other cases, the requirement does not apply when dealing with the Brown Act. That's why the appellate court sent the lawsuit back to Superior Court. What isn't clear is why the council just decide to settle the case instead of litigating it. They changed the policy after the lawsuit was filed but refused to end the case. Not sure what the reasoning was, other than to make the taxpayers pay extra in attorney's fees and appellate court costs. Thx-dH

San Diego's Carrizo Gorge railroad doomed once more

Mr. Hudson- As to that first question of whether this is a stock scam, it really depends on who you ask. One thing is for sure, the railroad hasn't made any money and doesn't have any money coming in other than from investors. As for the investors, at least for McMillin, Seau, and others, they never received any payments. They all filed lawsuits, all against Carrizo Gorge Railway (name before PIR). The lawsuits mean little if there is no money to pay. I hope that answers your questions. Thanks. -dH

Drunk-driving case spills onto city

I'm sure CalTrans will also be named. It happened within city limits and I assume attorneys are making sure the family files claims with all public agencies.-dH

Stehly Farms Market opens in Kensington

They will have beer and wine, at least that's what one of the employees told me. I guess there's just a minor delay with the beer/wine license. As for how expensive said beer or wine might be, I imagine like everything else there, it will costly.

Sweetwater district sued from Texas

Oh no, Eruption has erupted. First off, it's mister but feel free to call me Dorian. You could have gone on to the staff page to see my bio and the hundreds of articles I've written to find that out, but never mind. Not a big deal. There's no contest here. I cover, and have covered, cities throughout San Diego County for the Reader. I don't, and never have, suggested that I am some authority on South Bay. So, before freaking out, and before hurling insults my way, maybe you should do some fact checking of your own. Ms. Luzzaro did a great job. She has her critics as well as her supporters. Best of luck to her. Now, onto the lawsuit. I write for the website as well as the paper edition. For the website, throughout the week, I write brief news articles. Because Ms. Luzzaro no longer contributes to the Reader - for reasons I am not aware of - I decided to write about a new lawsuit from a former SUHSD principal against the district. I found this lawsuit as I was looking at recent court filings, which I do nearly everyday (see the list of stories I have written and you will see what I am referring to). Because of the past controversy with South Bay school districts and because Ms. Luzzaro did such an excellent job reporting on those topics, I wrote about the lawsuit and included the backstory, which Ms. Luzzaro wrote. This article, as all of my others, are meant to inform. I have no objective other than that. I have no stake in South Bay's school districts. So, please, spew whatever comments you might have but try to avoid the insults. -dH

Sweetwater district sued from Texas

Just for clarification, Luzzaro is not named in the lawsuit. The lawsuit is against SUHSD and others to be named at a later date. My guess is that might include Lopez as well as Jose Brosz, and Ramon Leyba. Those were the only names mentioned. The lawsuit is public record. Feel free to email me using the website (http://www.sandiegoreader.com/staff/dorian-hargro…) and I can send it to anyone that would like it. -dH

Sweetwater district sued from Texas

Thanks, AnnieJ. Ms. Luzzaro did a fine job and no one, including myself, is taking away from her reporting on South Bay. The sentence was included to show that Bleisch had issues with Luzzaro's reporting. It also showed the inner-turmoil at SUHSD and the manner in which Bleisch handled it. Luzzaro found it newsworthy, as did I. No other reason. I cover a lot of topics for the Reader, lawsuits such as these are among them. It is not just you, and the masses you speak of, that misses her reporting on these issues. As a journalist I do as well. Thanks for your comment. -dH

Sweetwater district sued from Texas

VigilantinCV, SUHSD was named. The lawsuit indicated that other people will be named at a later date. As for including the emails, it was relevant because Mr. Bleisch mentioned Luzarro's articles about him in his complaint. I'm not sure you are aware but Ms. Luzzaro was the one to report on Bleisch's emails and the responses to him. As for me not being Ms. Luzzaro, you are correct. Great observation.-dH
