Do the wealthy La Jolla residents want to axe greater San Diego from economically benefitting off their area? According to Janie Emerson, the answer is yes, but also no. Full Interview:
SAN DIEGO – The Association for the City of La Jolla, a group that is trying to make the community the 19th city in San Diego County, presented its case for seceding from the city of San Diego during the meeting of the San Diego Local Agency Formation Commission on Monday.
The commission will need to approve La Jolla’s bid for independence before presenting the proposal to La Jolla voters and the rest of San Diego. Vice President of the Association for the City of La Jolla, Janie Emerson, told KUSI’s Paul Rudy that Mayor Todd Gloria and the City of San Diego has failed to do basic things to maintain cleanliness.
Furthermore, Emerson claimed the proposal would be a “revenue neutral transaction,” which means, “nobody loses dollar wise.”"It would be improving things in La Jolla, which will bring more worldwide tourists to the destination, which brings money to all of San Diego. Which then advantages everybody."
