A Beach Community Fights Against An Airbnb Hotel

Politicians and Developers are Changing San Diego From "Beach Community" with a Surf and Outdoor Culture to Pro-density, Up-zoning and Abundance Housing Without Green Space and trees
While the tourism council and realtors sell the "sizzle" about San Diego, powerful and wealthy people have different goals for America's "beach communities"...

Turquoise Street, Pacific Beach will lose its cool vibe if a 240'H tower gets built by the 5 palm trees on the left

Hot action notice

if you like pacific beach and would like Turquoise street to remain as is and not get a 23-story tower of luxury housing, email the mayor & city council, and tell them, no!

email the mayor: mayortoddgloria@sandiego.gov,

email the president of the city council: joelacava@sandiego.gov

Details: Beach properties page. An email is a legal document, the city has to record your opinion and save the email for 5 years.

signing a petition is good for uniting a community but a change.org petition is not a legal document that the city has to acknowledge.

Thank you, Toots, February 2026
