As related in The Rag’s July 19 article, the Ocean Beach Planning Board Transportation subcommittee met Monday, July 23 to discuss a couple of radical traffic ideas - a Parking District and a new road through Robb Field.
The Rag story generated, to date, 28 comments. Many were not favorable but there was also a good discussion of alternative ideas. The subcommittee meeting did not generate a similar response, only four people attended, not counting this writer.
The meeting began by electing a new chair for the four-person subcommittee. The nominations for chair opened and subcommittee member Tyler Martin immediately nominated himself. It soon became apparent that Martin, a new board member elected in March, was the force behind this effort. The story here may actually be Mr. Martin.
The former chair, still on the subcommittee, was Tracy Dezenzo. The other two members are Andrea Schlageter, OBPB chair, and Virginia Wilson. All three would be considered heavyweights on the OBPB with years of volunteer service on the board.
