Final plan set to address Sunset Cliffs drainage Paul Jacob, a civil engineer from the city’s Park and Recreation Department will present on June 20 the long-anticipated final plan for a drainage system to reduce erosion of the Sunset Cliffs Natural Park. Residents are welcome to attend the public meeting of the Sunset Cliffs Natural Park Council, which takes place at 6:30 p.m. in the Jim Howard Hall at Robb Field. The natural park runs along Sunset Cliffs from Adair Street to the Naval Base Point Loma boundary, and from the cliffs to Sunset Cliffs Boulevard and the Point Loma Nazarene University boundary. Over the years, stormwater has been flowing over the parklands, creating gullies and washing pollutants into the ocean. The city hired a consultant to study the directions and volumes of the flows and to propose methods to handle the water without damage to the park and to minimize ocean pollution. The draft plan can be viewed at www.sandiego.gov/park-and-recreation. For more information about the meeting and the drainage study, call (619) 235-5242, or email [email protected]. Suspected puppy killer bound over for trial An Ocean Beach man will stand trial July 19 on suspicion he killed his former girlfriend’s puppy and battered the woman in April. Aubry Eugene Glascock, 32, pleaded not guilty to the charges in San Diego Superior Court on May 30. He is accused of inflicting corporal injuries on his girlfriend and a roommate in the April 27 incident at a motor home parked on Voltaire Street and West Point Loma Boulevard. Glascock is also accused of felony animal abuse in the death of the 4-month-old puppy, which investigators said was thrown by the defendant against the side of the motor home. The man is also charged with resisting arrest. A restraining order has been filed against Glascock that prohibits him from contacting the former girlfriend and the roommate. Glascock remains in custody on $85,000 bail. Glascock has also been charged with damaging jail property worth nearly $1,000. A preliminary hearing in the Chula Vista Superior Court will be held later in June on that charge. —Neal Putnam Peninsula YMCA readies for summer camps The Peninsula Family YMCA would like to make the summer of 2012 a memorable one for area children.
