After the sand dumping ended last winter, Grandview was all time, so the sand did wonders for the reef back then, really lined up the right nicely. Got some darn good waves on one day of west swell, anyway. (Weekday, winter time, not too crowded, old school grannies, before the HD cam.)

Ban surfing. Ban cobbles and sand. Return Leucadia to the Hippies.

I think you're allowed to take two buckets of cobbles a day home from local beaches if you like. I do know tht Russell Marr got a lecture for taking a mere pocketful for some art project, when local authorities pushed their weight around. But I think Russell reminded them about the law.
And yes, you can't go wrong landscaping well with cobbles. Even a cobble arch entrance to Leucadia. Better yet, a cobble drawbridges at each entrance with a full moat.
If we do go with cobbles, and I hope we do too, let's not buy them from across the planet somewhere. Hey wait a minute.. nothing can grow on cobbles, so all we gotta do is move the cobbles 1 block from the beach to hide NCTD's scortched dirt. They oughta love it.

Anon 1028,

I was hoping the city would get something out of our high paid lobbyists and they would open up a process for using the cobbles. One of our lobbyists is Aceti and it is very clear to me from his positions that he should be very good at asking to have some cobbles removed from the beach.

It is illegal to remove cobbles from the beach. Contact the California Coastal Commission to begin the permit process. If you dare.

They need something to talk about besides serious issues like non sustainable budgets caused by the fat pensions approved by our lame council.

anon 842,

Good to hear that the city will be dragging this out even longer.

Oh good. That serious issue stuff about the country going to shit was to much to think about.

Thanks for the better post

Kevin, the designers emphasized the design elements will be a part of then next stage - once the alternative is selected. I agree that the cobblestones should be a part of any design concept.

Add our congressman Brian Bilbray to the list of sand barons. He voted against health care reform but thinks tax dollars should go to sand replenishment on already sandy beaches.
