Every few years, someone who wants to make a political splash proposes handing over to the D.A.’s office the city’s charter-mandated authority to prosecute misdemeanors that occur within San Diego.

![]() We’re now a two GEM family... The little buggy 2-seater for our deliveries and a new four-seater to share with friends. These NEVs are perfect for San Diego. No gas (and just a bit of electricity) gets us all over town! |
| “It’s going to be a long, hot
summer. The city is in horrible turmoil anyway. San
Diego is going to become national news. And
the second paragraph of every story is going to say, ‘And besides this,
they’ve lost their credit rating, they can’t borrow money, they’re on
the verge of bankruptcy.’” — Glen
Sparrow, professor emeritus of public administration and urban studies
at SDSU
