Opinion: San Diego leaders more concerned about appearance of action than actual progress [Opinion]
” : Two terms in your cogent editorial exactly describe why our city government is going off the rails: “cursory” and “fast-tracked.”
San Diego has a “strong” mayor whose pre-election resume included eight months of actual executive experience. He has commandeered a subservient City Council. Together, they are adroit at serial improvisation — let’s try this! And this! But they have neither the acumen nor the diligence to engineer data-driven innovations that achieve results.
So the mayor keeps churning out half-baked initiatives and derelict financial decisions . The council keeps slavishly ramming his proposals through. City Hall keeps hemorrhaging money. And your letters column keeps filling up with furious reactions from an outraged public.You’re right — talk is cheap. But, as we’re learning, government by dilettantes is horribly expensive.
