The City Council will vote on the proposed changes to beach fire regulations on December 13th at their 2:00 pm meeting.
The membership of the Mission Beach Town Council voted in June to support the proposed changes to the city of San Diego’s municipal code which will prohibit beach fires outside of city provided fire rings from using any devices other than propane fueled devices.
It's important that all nine of our city council members hear from our community so please do one of the following to let our city council members know that the Mission Beach Community supports these changes.
1. Come to the city council hearing on December 13th at 2:00 pm (202 C St. 12th floor) and speak in person. Prepare a one minute speech. (yes, you will be there for a few hours but our community is worth it)
2. Attend the city council meeting via zoom and sign up to give a one minute speech. https://sandiego.zoomgov.com/j/1611703951

In support of the proposed change to the city of San Diego’s municipal code which would prohibit beach fires outside of city provided fire rings from using any devices other than propane fueled devices. These changes are a clarification on beach fires, not a ban on beach fires.
Please follow the following instructions on the best way to send an email to all of the city council offices.
Email INSTRUCTIONS:
• Write one letter
• DO NOT identify your Council District or include your home address!
We want each City Official to think the letter writer is a constituent in their district.
• ALL NINE Council Members vote on every agenda item. Writing only to our specific Council Member does not accomplish the outcome we need when there are
NINE total votes being cast on every agenda item before City Council.
We need all Council Members on board!!!!!
