Open Letter to the PB Community
May 28, 2009 2 CommentsThere are several considerations to make before the Maintenance Assessment District (MAD) assessment proposal is voted upon. Are you happy with the current proposal? Do you know the details?
I’ve expressed my opinions on several issues relating to the existing work of Discover Pacific Beach (BID) as well as the use and allocation of funds from this potential MAD assessment.

I think that most business do not pay a large amount. Given that is may be a token $100 per year, there may be a few businesses that are aware – but probably most will probably find out when it is too late. I hope they figure out that more money is to come in increased fees.

There is some good stuff in here. I’m surprised the businesses in PB don’t get upset that so much of their money goes to frivolous events and not to get more of San Diego’s tourists into PB. e.g. Just how does a golf tournament get more visitors to the business district? Not sure of the math there.
