Neighbors in Encanto, Chollas Valley and surrounding areas are frustrated about a zoning code they're calling modern day redlining. San Diego planning commissioners on Thursday made a recommendation to repeal the policy. 

San Diego City Council Repeals Footnote 7

 Following concerns raised by passionate community members, the San Diego City Council voted on March 4 to reverse a change to the City’s Land Development Code that lacked transparency when it was made in 2019.

 District 4 Councilmember Henry Foster represents southeastern San Diego. He actually believes the large minimum lot sizes in his district are problematic and exclusionary, he told the Voice of San Diego podcast back in March. But he also pushed for the repeal of Footnote 7.

For Some Chollas Valley Residents Footnote 7 Changes Didn’t Go Far Enough

  E.  The adoption of Footnote 7 for Table 131-04D and its subsequent amendment were a part of two Citywide Land Development Code Updates. Footnote 7 must be implemented consistent with the Encanto Neighborhoods Community Plan. However, because the provisions contained in Footnote 7 would only apply in the Encanto Neighborhoods Community Plan area, additional outreach to this affected community should have been conducted prior to its adoption. The City Planning Department recommends repealing Footnote 7 because that community specific outreach did not occur previously. Footnote 7 for Table 131-04D should also be repealed to ensure that the RS-1-2 base zone development regulations apply consistently Citywide.

 Residents who oppose the Klauber Avenue project have pointed to southeast San Diego’s makeup — with higher proportions of Black and brown residents and lower household incomes than the rest of the county — and say the footnote amounts to discrimination.

What Our Hill Could Be by Kenny Key

What our community and city could have: The 360-degree views from Old Memory Lane. hill are unparalleled. All people need a place to let nature heal us physically and mentally. High quality parks are necessary parts of infrastructure, not mere amenities. Without well designed parks, densely populated areas become smothering/prison-like. In this video created by long-time Emerald Hills resident Kenny Key, we see what a jewel we can have that can be a destination for all residents of this city.
