Rufus,

I disagree with your position. Many of the meeting attendees are gainfully employed, yet they attend meetings after work without pay because of their love of this community and out of their sense of responsibility.

Mr. Cotton, in contrast, is in the top job in Encinitas and thinks that taxpayers should pay him money to stay at home–in violation of his own contract.

What is wrong with this picture? Is it prudent that all City contracts have been signed off by him? Has he been working with Danny Dalager? No wonder they are always claiming that the city is "broke!"

No amount of money is worth taking the City Manager’s job in Encinitas; the incredibly disturbed minority on the council; the unbalanced local press (bought and paid for)and the thirty chronically unemployed denizens who haunt city hall and the council meetings.
What a freak show.

Let’s start off with a requirement that the new Encinitas City Manager be honest and not steal from Encinitas taxpayers. I want for Phil Cotton to return the $11,000 that he took in violation of his month to month contract as an hourly worker with no benefits.

All this money, on top of 2 penision. What is he doing with it?
