Spending is heating up in the race for Huntington Beach City Council after the local police officer’s association dropped nearly $100,000 in independent advertising targeting sitting council members who voted against their raises (which passed recently)and supporting their opponents. 

One of the five asks in this petition is speedometers on every e-bike. If riders can see how fast they’re going, they can slow down before something goes wrong. The petition also asks for a county license with a test, a $160 fine for illegal riding, and limits for kids under 16. It is at 1,485 signatures. Do you think speedometers should be required? https://www.change.org/p/implement-e-bike-safety-reform-now

Hey neighbors. Took some advice from my last post and went to check out pacific city yesterday and it was a fun day. Loved sunsettin n all that. Did anyone else see this guy with the mask drawing in the sand? I’m tryna figure out what the thing he left on the ground was.

HB water / garbage went from $85 last year to $140 this year. I am not voting for the same council. Sick of paying for their lawsuits. Strickland and Gracey even worse.

Is it easy to occupy them these days? What time should I show up to secure a spot?

been craving some beef or chicken lately. I have no preference on the style, can be carne asada or Korean BBQ, whatever, just as long as it's worth going back for. I live bold seasonings, garlic and some heat.

My husband is interviewing this week and we will be in town this Wednesday and Thursday only to look at apartments. I’ve found a few condos on Zillow but is there another website I should look at for apartment complexes or communities and schedule a tour? Are places welcome to just walk in tours ?

Hey neighbors. I just recently moved to this area. I don’t know if anyone here is a punk, but I’d love to hear any recommendations you may have for some weird music acts or house shows here. I’m into ska prog metal or just good ol rock and roll. Big bonus points if the food is good. Cheers!

Why the <bleeped bleeped bleep> are people picking up the poop from their dogs, and then tossing it into the blue recycling bins outside of the house they were passing? Can they at least figure out which bin is trash instead, or no?

The waves were wild this morning at the pier and it was cool to check out A Great Day in the Stoke and watch the persistence of the surfers tackling the challenging conditions. 📸: Devin Roberts

I've had the same weekly gardener for 20 years. A few years ago he inherited his Uncle's clients and expanded. He started sending a different crew. It pretty much has gone downhill from there. I think he has stretched himself too thin. Anyway, reccommdations for a new gardener is greatly appreciated. I'm near Brookhurst & Yorktown. Thanks in advance!

I'm hearing lots of sirens and a helicopter around Springdale and Heil, we heard a loud noise earlier but I don't know if it's connected. I am afraid that something happened involving the church fall festival! Does anyone know anything?

Anyone else?

Anyone know what caused it?

Edit: power is back on

I am writing this because I wish I had read such a post. Today my pants were in a locker at LA Fitness. Sometime during the time I was in the gym, the locker was opened, all cash in the pocket was taken, and a Discover card was taken. I did not realize this until about an hour later, Discover sent me a text questioning a $1500 charge at Ralphs on Goldenwest and Garfield. I said no, not me, then I looked and my card was not in the wallet in the pocket, then I realized all the cash was also gone. So this was a theft by someone who knew what they were doing. It turned out that there had been 3 previous charges that were now pending at the same Ralphs, in total a little over $5000. They were trying to extract as much from the card as they could as quickly as they could. Three charges went through, then Discover texted me, that one was declined, then they tried it again and it was declined. This all happened within half an hour. The good part for me is that the others are going to be deleted, but the store or the bank or someone will probably lose some money to these thieves. And I lost more than I should have.

So I've been going there for 10 years and it is a big shock. Somehow it seemed like a safe place. I am just very very glad my phone was not in the locker. That would have been a disaster.

I wondered how this could be done when the lock was still operational. I looked up shimming locks on youtube and my old Masterlock probably took 10 seconds to open.

So it was bad, but here is what I've learned. Never again will money, wallet, keys, phone, go with me into the gym. I will be getting a new lock that is resistant to shimming. Goodbye to my old Masterlock I've been using for 10 years. I'll get a new credit card in the mail and life will go on. Maybe the police will dig into cameras at Ralphs and find the thieves, this level of money is a pretty serious felony, but I'd say it's not that likely. Protect yourself. And yes, go ahead and tell me how dumb I am, I know.

Looks like they opened yesterday off Edinger/Edwards and have some pretty damn good promotional pricing. Just filled up and all they have is 91 left but still charge 87 rates.

Can’t believe this clown was elected. Too bad he’s not up for reelection until 2028
