The City Council hasn&#8217;t yet taken up the proposed parking issue, but the delay will give it time to address it, he said. . . . Ketterer said the Tamarack lot can generate $200,000 annually in fees. Part of that revenue will go the state&#8217;s general fund, and part to the parks upkeep budget.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.coastal.ca.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\">California Coastal Commission&#8217;s<\/a><\/strong> hearing on the fee request has been tentatively postponed until May 7-9, 2008 when the group will meet in Marina del Rey at the <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.marinadelreyhotel.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Marina del Rey Hotel<\/a><\/strong>. &#8220;The State Parks and the City of Carlsbad have requested a postponement on the issue so when it&#8217;s really up to them to decide when it gets presented to the Coastal Commission,&#8221; said <strong>Toni Ross<\/strong>, a coastal planner with the San Diego office of the California Coastal Commission.<\/p>\n<p>When we spoke to <strong>Rob Houston<\/strong> with the Carlsbad City Manager&#8217;s office he implied that people from the City of Carlsbad are planning attend the hearing and speak out against the proposed parking fees. &#8220;We&#8217;re checking from the City side,&#8221; he said. &#8220;But citizens should be heard as well.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As the Commission members prefer to get comments via the US Postal Service, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.coastal.ca.gov\/roster.html\" target=\"_blank\">click here<\/a><\/strong> for their addresses and be heard.<\/p>\n<p><strong>[Link: <\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.signonsandiego.com\/news\/northcounty\/20080403-9999-1mc3nofree.html\" target=\"_blank\">San Diego Union-Tribune<\/a><\/strong><strong>]<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>San Diego Union-Tribune writer Michael Burge gets on the Tamarack Surf Beach parking fee story that we wrote about yesterday with a few additional details.
