Directors spar over Golf Club budget, process

The Rancho Santa Fe Association board faced a seemingly simple decision May 2: Whether to send its preliminary 2008-09 budget out for perusal by the membership, as it does every year.
Design and construction excellence, which has been a hallmark of Rancho Santa Fe since its founding, will again be honored through the presentation of four Lily Awards at the annual meeting of the Rancho Santa Fe Association on May 8.

Twenty-eight months after he took the reigns of a city burdened by financial mismanagement and political turmoil, San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders is in a tough fight this year to keep his job. Sanders’ opponent in the 2005 primaries is his biggest worry today — former Nevada lawmaker and businessman Steve Francis, whose ample personal fortune has allowed him to fund his own campaign.
With fellow Republican Francis running frequent TV spots decrying Sanders’ performance and trying to come at the Mayor from the left (by seeking Union endorsements and reversing his position on several issues), this year’s mayoral race is superheated.
