“Beach Cities Politics” was the theme when the Rancho Santa Fe Democratic Club welcomed elected officials from Encinitas, Solana Beach and Del Mar Jan. 22 at the Lomas Santa Fe Country Club in Solana Beach.

The panel included Encinitas City Council members Lisa Shaffer and Tony Kranz; Solana Beach Mayor Lesa Heebner and veteran Councilman Mike Nichols; Sherryl Parks, Deputy Mayor of Del Mar; and Lee Haydu, former Mayor of Del Mar.

Panelists discussed the problems these coastal beach communities face and the political processes through which problems are engaged.
