Snapshots of the Mission Beach Town Council (MBTC) meeting held Feb. 9:<\/b> \u2022 Thomas Lochtefeld, the master leaseholder of Belmont Park who is currently in bankruptcy court with the city over disagreements in changes to the park\u2019s lease, updated the Mission Bay Town Council on the situation. He said the next court hearing will be in March, when the future of Belmont Park may be decided. Lochtefeld asked the MBTC to write a letter to Mayor Jerry Sanders supporting an extension of the previous lease. “I\u2019m still in negotiations with the city, but I\u2019m not going to compromise. To me, it\u2019s all or nothing,” Lochtefeld told the MBTC. “There will be severe consequences (if the city takes over operations of Belmont Park) and the people who are going to suffer are you.” \u2022 Project engineer Sheila Gamueda announced the sewer and water-main replacement project planned for several areas in Mission Beach won\u2019t begin until after Labor Day. \u2022 Mission Beach Woman\u2019s Club president Maruta Gardner reported that the idea of selling corporate advertising on lifeguard towers, lifeguard surfboards and public restrooms was discussed at a City Council meeting she recently attended. A host of concerns and questions were brought up during the MBTC meeting regarding this subject. Thyme Curtis, representative to District 2 City Councilman Kevin Faulconer, said there is no official plan to go through with the idea, but she plans to update the MBTC as more information becomes available. \u2022 Area 9 MBTC representative Bob Craig requested further information from Curtis on when the city plans to make repairs to decaying sections of the sea wall along the boardwalk. \u2022 Craig also said he has been in contact with city officials about performing a sweep of the recycling and trash containers in Mission Beach. People throwing away recyclable items in the trash could face a warning for violating Mission Beach\u2019s new recycling ordinance. \u2022 San Diego Police Department Lt. James Filley said that although crime in Mission Beach overall has gone down over the last year, residential burglaries have been going up. Filley said most of the burglaries were the result of residents leaving their doors and windows open or unlocked. \u2022 Residents interested in helping fight local crime can attend the next Neighborhood Watch meeting on Tuesday, Feb. 22 at the Mission Beach Woman\u2019s Club at 5:30 p.m. \u2022 MBTC President Bob Ruane said the www.missionbeachtc.org website has added a feature to the homepage displaying updated temperature and wind levels at the Mission Beach Yacht Club.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
