The Encinitas City Council will consider, on Wednesday, whether to give themselves a 10 percent monthly pay raise, from $1,186 to $1,307, and whether to give the city manager an 11 percent raise, boosting his salary to $242,640, according to the Union-Tribune. Pay raises are often contentious issues in San Diego, but Encinitas Mayor Dan Dalager says the pay increases are necessary to attract qualified people to city positions.

City leaders react to marijuana legislation: Encinitas Councilman Jim Bond PDF Print E-mail

SDNR: Should legalizing marijuana be considered a viable option for raising tax revenue?

JB: An emphatic no! Should the state do this; can legalizing other illicit drugs be far behind?

SDNR: How would the legalization of marijuana affect Encinitas?

JB: Poorly, as would be the case for any other city.

SDNR: Is the current legal and regulatory structure for medical marijuana sufficient, or are changes needed?

JB: Current state and federal laws are sufficient, provided local governments continue to be able to say "no" to such establishments in the local entities under their jurisdiction.

The Encinitas City Council will be asked Wednesday whether it wants to continue with plans to build three pedestrian tunnels under railroad tracks or create at-grade railroad crossings where people can legally walk across tracks, according to the North County Times. At-grade crossings will cost around $500,000 while each underpass structure is estimated at $5 million. The city has been drafting plans for the underpass structures for several years, but has recently indicated it would like a cheaper option.
