While the La Jolla Parks & Beaches board is the latest local group to sign on to a letter to the California Coastal Commission looking to curb sidewalk vending in La Jolla parks, it is the only one thus far to register some opposition.
The La Jolla Shores Association heard updates on separate efforts to clean up Pottery Canyon and ban gas-powered leaf blowers during an extended meeting Oct. 13 to highlight environmental concerns.

The La Jolla Shores Association voted May 12 to ask the La Jolla Traffic & Transportation Board for suggestions to improve what Shores resident Michael McCormack called “a real danger zone.”
McCormack said the streets between La Jolla Shores Drive and the ocean are not only full of cars but also scooters, pedestrians and bicyclists. “Usage is skyrocketing,” he said, with speeding cars creating hazards for all users.
He said The Shores should “implement a different yield paradigm,” with clear signage instructing car drivers to yield to “anything on wheels and pedestrians,” and for anything on wheels bikes, scooters, etc. to yield to pedestrians.
