A new audit report provides further documentation that the City of San Diego does not suffer from a lack of revenue, it suffers from a lack of accountability and a culture of mismanagement.

“two electricians found by the audit to have spent 198 hours – the equivalent of 25 workdays – parked for long stretches at sites where no documented repairs took place.”

@ChrisMurphyCT B.S. Senator Murphy. You say "sarcasm" the rest of us with 1 ounce of commonsense say "treason."

How to close San Diego’s $610 million spending gap without cutting services, raising taxes, or nickel-and-diming residents:

Return staffing to 2015 levels (population is basically the same) → $220M

12% productivity gain from software/systems since 2015 → $95M

Right-size staffing → pension contribution savings → $130M

Completely reform the homeless services model that’s been enabling the problem → $35M

Use managed competition for all city services (trash, parks, etc.) → $50M

Reduce firefighter & police overtime through staffing, policy & priority call reforms → $25M

Optimize real estate (sell/repurpose 101 Ash St + consolidate empty offices) → $25M

Shift misdemeanor prosecutions to the DA’s office like every other city in the county → $20M

Total = $600M+

@Mike_from_PA The problem isn’t a retiree on a fixed income paying lower property taxes on a place they bought 30 years ago.

Stop advocating for policies that would force seniors out of their homes and start demanding accountability of a wasteful gov that continues to do less with more.

@RichardPBailey_ A street light in my barrio has been out for 18 months. "Get It Done" is not getting it done. I wish we could put a moratorium on frivolous spending, such as Bike Lanes, until the backlog of necessary infrastructure projects has markedly improved. Outsource the work!

@RepSwalwell Why haven't you resigned in shame? Have you forgotten about Fang Fang?

@JessicaTarlov With each of your posts, Jessica, your credibility dwindles. Though I rarely agree with your positions, I did think you were better than this. Reposting every little glitch associated with the current administration is chicken sh$t.
