  • Summary

  • I enjoy covering local news issues, so we will be doing a deep dive on the latest with the planned Life Time Fitness at The Farm in Poway. Some locals are opposing the project and micromanaging the details. Plus, we will discuss the upcoming presidential debate, SCOTUS social media ruling, and Trump on Green Cards. Got a question or comment? Drop your take in the live chat on Facebook, X, or YouTube and I will get you involved in the San Diego Community Forum. It’s Wednesday, June 26, 2024. This is what John Riley thinks. Developments at Life Time Fitness at The Farm in Poway Constant Micromanaging of Life Time Fitness (square footage, traffic, wages, parking, fees, etc.) Measure P reset New Life Time plan considered by City Council July 16thWill Council approve package? Approve it to go to ballot? Or reject it?Updated application submitted May 29th. Not a minor modification. Will require a majority vote of the people. (Nov 5th) Chris Cruse recommended contacting the council and making memes. Good Idea! Sent email to council, everyone responded except my representative! Read letter. Share responses. Poway City Council (councilmembers@poway.org):Seems there is another movement of opposition to the Life Time Fitness facility in The Farm. Certain community organizers are encouraging Powegians to write to the City Council expressing opposition.I would like to offer an alternative point of view.I support Property Rights. People across Poway shouldn’t have the right micromanage how a property owner chooses to manage his/her property.America’s founding values are expressed in our inalienable rights of Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. Property rights are a natural extension of your right to your own life. If one cannot use their property resources for productive purposes (particularly if there are no damages created to others), then an interference in one’s property is an interference in one’s right to their own life.Legally speaking, I realize that the Measure P situation likely means that it will need to go to a public vote. But from a moral point of view, I object.Also… the proposed plan by Life Time looks pretty good to me and my family. In fact, we were just discussing this over the weekend. Both my wife and daughter are hopeful the project is approved. They like all of the proposed amenities.Thank you.John RileyResponsesCaylin FrankHi John, Nice to hear from you. Thank you for your thoughts. My understanding is that the voter initiative requires major modifications to go back to the voters so I feel that needs to be honored. But I understand your perspective on it. Hope you are doing well! CaylinBrian PepinHi John, Hope you’re doing well! Thanks for emailing. I always appreciate your perspective; I’ll take it into consideration when LifeTime presents their proposal to the City Council this summer. Thank you. -BrianAnita EdmonstonHi John. Good hearing from you – I hope you’re doing well! And thanks for weighing in on the Life Time Fitness proposal from your point of view. I appreciate your insights. As you are aware, the application is currently under review by city staff and council has not yet received a report or recommendation. I will be taking all input into consideration if/when the matter comes before council. In case you didn’t already receive the attached information directly from the city, I am including it here. It provides additional background on the application, the process, and its relationship to The Farm development. Best regards, Anita EdmondsonSteve VausThanks John - good to hear from you. SV Peter DeHoff (my representative in District 3) No Response. LOL Made a meme.Support Property rights. How to frame it?First political issue I considered was School Choice.Then abortion while in college.Adult topic! (some discussion at Catholic Church as a kid)Growing up!Your body is your own. You own you. Your choice.Not that different from School Choice issue.
