Encinitas Council Picks Water Board Member to Fill District 4 Seat

A Coast Highway 101 sign business owner who serves on the Olivenhain Water District board will become Encinitas’ newest City Council member. The council on Wednesday voted 3-1, with Councilmember Joy Lyndes opposed, to pick Marco San Antonio out of eight applicants seeking to fill the new mayor’s former council seat. He can be formally sworn into his new job at the Feb. 12 council meeting after he resigns from the water board, City Clerk Kathy Hollywood said.

Sewer Fees to Rise in Cardiff and Encinitas

Residents in Cardiff will see their sewer fees increase by 15 percent for each of the next four years, while central Encinitas sewer customers will see their rates go up by 19 percent for each of the next five.

The Encinitas City Council gave its initial approval to both sets of substantial price increases Wednesday, but said the increases will be revisited on an annual basis to determine if they are still warranted.
