From Pickleball Association of San Diego
For four years now, Mayor Todd Gloria has refused to meet with San Diego pickleball representatives. He has told his staff to shun us. He has consistently acted in bad faith to the pickleball community. For example, when PASD presented our proposal to the Mission Bay Parks Board, the chair asked us "why are you here wasting our time, when you know the Mayor has already decided that no tennis courts will ever be converted to pickleball?"
When PASD met with the Mayor's staff, PASD came prepared. PASD showed the Mayor's staff millions of dollars of unreported tennis revenue and the staff was appalled. But the Mayor did not care.
