More Parking Spaces on Main Street?
Vista City Council is considering adding additional parking to Main Street and E. Broadway and making parts of them one-way streets. That’s most of Main Street and the road in front of the Broadway Theater on E. Broadway. 70 additional parking places might be added.
So, this sounds pretty great, right? Ever since the big dirt parking lot was replaced with the Rylan apartments and businesses, Main Street has needed more parking. When Main Street was busy, there were up to 2 full rows a block long of cars parked in that dirt lot.
Of course, the devil is in the details. Remember… did it take like a year or something to finish the road on Santa Fe? How did that impact the businesses there? Was nobody even out there working a lot of that time? Did that put any small businesses there under?
In this
video,
it looks like an engineer is pointing at blocking all of Main Street at Citrus. But, does he actually mean just blocking off half of the street there? And… how many of those 70 new parking spaces will Main Street be getting?
Is there some software program that will allow the engineer to draw his vision of Main Street parking? It would be easier to know if this is something everybody really wants if we can see it first. Would it look something like the parking on Coast Hwy in Encinitas?
The City of Vista is requesting community feedback on this proposed plan. Click on City Council members at the City of Vista
website. Email address for each member is at the bottom of each member’s page.
Suggestion
We tried to park in one of the newer lots off of Main Street one evening. There was only one space available and we couldn’t get into it. Then, we had a difficult time getting out of the lot. It felt dangerous since we had to back up onto the street.
These parking spaces would be MUCH easier to get into if they were slanted. And, could an exit be added to these parking lots? Currently, there is only one entrance to get in or out. And it would be helpful for the security of women and children if parking spaces are not too narrow.
Just wondering…
The end of the athletic field near Main Street always seems to be empty. Maybe the side of that field nearest Main Street could be converted to a couple of rows of parking? 2 rows parallel to Citrus?

Juveniles Who Have Been Arrested Report High Levels of Vaping, Use of Illicit Substances
“The results in this report are concerning because we continue to see high levels of substance use among juvenile arrestees. While the efforts to help youth avoid entering the justice system are positive, we need to continue to address the underlying risk factors related to substance use among youth.”

Is Vista City Council considering events on private property? But, do these businesses really want cannabis festivals on city property? Like say… maybe a future festival on Main Street? With lots of visitors from out of town attending?
in Alta Vista Gardens
and we also have a
Rhythm and Brews festival
for all of our breweries.
I see this as something similar to that.”

Were some government officials the chief purveyors of
disinformation and misinformation during the pandemic? But, California’s medical gag law doesn’t target these disinformation spreaders, does it? Does it actually target independent doctors who tell the truth… and say things that don’t conform to media narratives?
IS THIS OPPOSITE WORLD?
When there are no consequences for government lying or incompetence… will it just happen over and over and over again?
