1. I love the Morro Bay Harbor.
2. It has been mismanaged for many years.
3. It needs expensive work in many areas.
4. It is a very large asset that requires long-term planning and promotion to sustain and remain viable.
Tax Measure B-22, which is on Morro Bay’s election ballot, does very little to do this.
The Embarcadero Master Leaseholders have formed an LLC.
They prepared an 11-page “position paper” that outlines a plan that appears to address all of the issues. They have presented it to the city.
In my humble opinion, bureaucrats do not know how to operate a business similar to the harbor. The harbor is a business, and it needs to be run by an entrepreneur, not a bureaucrat.
They only know how to tax and spend, not how to create a value.
Vote no on tax measure B22
