San Diego deserves housing, not data centers.

The City is working to implement restrictions and permanent laws against data centers, but NAVWAR is on federal land. Only Congress has the power to stop this, so I urge you to sign the petition to let our representatives know we say NO to data centers.

We have taken local action, but now it’s time for Congress to step up and act.

The community was right. The community is right.

Today, the Budget and Government Efficiency Committee voted to cancel the City’s $2 million Flock surveillance contract.

San Diegans have been clear: We deserve investments in our libraries, parks, recreation centers, and youth programs, not invasive surveillance.

This is a step forward, made possible by the organizers, advocates, and community members who refused to stop showing up and speaking out.

The fight isn’t over.

Get the Flock OUT of San Diego.

San Diego is not safe from the wave of data centers crushing communities and driving up bills across the country.
 
Manchester Financial Group is exploring a 400-megawatt data center, the largest in California, on the NAVWAR site in Old Town, land that was supposed to be housing for San Diegans. We won’t let it happen here without a fight.
 
Because NAVWAR is on federal land, the city can’t stop this project on its own. Only Congress can. So on Thursday we’re taking local action and demanding federal action. 

Join us at 4:00pm on Thursday, October 22nd at City Hall to take local action against the proposed data center and call on the San Diego federal delegation to prioritize housing, clean energy, and San Diegans – not data centers.
 
If you can’t join us, please sign the petition to tell your Congressmember NO to the Mega Data Center, NO to higher bills, NO to freeloading billionaires, and NO to pollution.

San Diegans are being ripped off by SDG&E and Sempra, paying some of the highest utility rates in the nation.

Meanwhile, SDG&E is requesting another rate increase to rake in more money on top of their multi-billion dollar annual profits.

And in the midst of the inaffordability crisis, SDG&E is in conversations with Manchester about a potential 400-megawatt data center to be built in the heart of San Diego.

San Diegans should not be forced to pay for data center operations or higher rates, while billionaires pocket the rest.

Every community deserves to be loved, safe, and ready.

Today, we partnered with I Love a Clean San Diego, the Harvey Family Foundation, Councilmember von Wilpert, and our Parks and Rec Department to clean the storm channels in preparation for El Niño and beauty Wightman St. Park.

Thank you to the volunteers, community partners, and everyone who helped bring this event to life.

Every neighborhood deserves streets that are safe, maintained, and cared for.

Last week, City of San Diego Transportation crews repaired 80 potholes across District 9, with much of the work focused along 37th Street and El Cajon Boulevard in City Heights.

This work is part of a proactive effort to address road conditions in neighborhoods where potholes often go unreported.

Our communities shouldn’t have to wait until streets become unsafe to see improvements. We’re committed to making sure every neighborhood gets the attention and investment it deserves.

Thank you to our Transportation crews for their hard work!

See a pothole? Report it through the City’s Get It Done app.
