Assistant City Manager ....,- Sharon Wood said the consul- tant for the traffic· and circulci- tion study, Austin-Foust Associ- ates, found it would not be fea- sible to ban or limit· vehicles from Maio Street south of Bal- boa Boulevard. · "Both would have rnquircd more traffic to leave by Wash- ington Street, and because of the traffit, we would need an extra.Jane and a signal."

The purpose of the study, Wood said, was to find ways to increase parking within the Bal boa Pier lot and to decrease tour bus parking on nearby residen- tial streets. Because tour ous operators rarely want to pay to wait for patrons as they visit the pier and locd1 businesses, they often end up idling on residential streets, causing noise and air pollution problems. Wood s;ud staff would recomroend to the council that lour husEls would not have to pay for the new luyover spaces, wh1~h would encourage them to use them. .

He had to furn up the volume on his phone so he could hear his caller speak. Stephen has joined the Cruca- go-based group, wruch actively lobbies for gun safety legislation. The group has gained national prominence because many of its members are friends and relatives of murder victims. "60 Minutes" is planning to air a feature on the organization next year. The group has stood firmly by Stephen's side during his legal battle. Stephen and two other plaintiffs filed the lawsuit in June, claiming gun manufacturers were negligent in the production and distribution of their products. The lawsuit alleges that com· pC4lies such as Bryco use appeal· ing xparketing schemes tQ would- be criminals. Words such as •fire- power" and •fingerprint resis- tance" are allegedly promoted by manufacturers to boost profit margins. ~This is an outlaw industry,• Stephen said. "They meet the demands of both the legal and illegal markets." . The lawsuit further claims that gun companies take a "hear-no- evil, see-no·evil" stance with their products. "They aren't concerned th what the glµl is used for whel'f1t leaves the . plant,• he added. "There has to be a collectiw responsibility that includes gUd manufacture~.

Even before thut, the demise of th1~ once-prosperous shop- ping center had become an obvious cone-em.and eyesore to many, m Costa Mesd. Over the years, th<> occupancy rdte in I !arbor C'enter has decreased, along with its over- all <.tppearance and upkeep. It has become a bhghted center and ii negative on the sur- rounding neigh rhoods and busine ses.
