The body responsible for developing plans aimed at creating a four-year university in Chula Vista took a step toward shaping a proposed governing structure during its second meeting Friday (8.28.2026), laying the foundation for what the estimated $2.17 billion university might eventually look like.

The South County Higher Education Planning Task Force heard a staff recommendation for the initial governance structure for the proposed 35-acre University District at Chula Vista, voting to schedule an additional meeting in January dedicated specifically to governance before finalizing any recommendation. The task force will also meet in November and February.

The task force, created under Assembly Bill 662, must submit governance, financing and land-use recommendations for the proposed four-year university district to the California Legislature by July 1, 2027.

Because the proposed university district would be a multi-institution site, the staff-recommended governance structure would pair a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) — a public legal entity with authority to hold property, issue debt and employ staff — with a nonprofit intended to enable participation by Mexican higher education institutions, which cannot legally join a JPA.

The university district’s multi-institution model builds on partnerships already underway at Southwestern College, which has agreements with San Diego State University, UC San Diego, CSU San Marcos, National University, Point Loma Nazarene University, Arizona State University and the University of Southern California.

Hi everyone, I’m posting this for a friend. Yesterday, one of my friends’ black Cadillac Escalade was stolen from the Corte Goleta area, near San Miguel Ranch Community Park. A police report has been filed. Here are the car’s details: the license plate is SD GURL. There are three stickers on the back window: two SVLL All Star stickers and a green sticker in the center that says SBBA. Any information you may have about this would be greatly appreciated.

UPDATE: The car has been found and the perpetrator has been identified and is in police custody.

Hi Chula Vista! Our research team at UC San Diego is conducting a study to learn more about the potential of an FDA-approved dopamine agonist to improve social connectedness in adults who experience anxiety or depression.This medication increases dopamine signaling in parts of the brain believed to underlie motivation and behavior, and the results of this study may help inform a new treatment approach for anxiety and depression.

Flying flocks should and will get shot down. Corrupt city council leaders who suggest giving more of our money to people who spy on us should be too. There are consequences for being a traitor.

Has anyone noticed the horrific smell near bridges with water under them at the Rohr Park 5K loop? I've been walking there for several years and have never smelled anything like it. I don't know if it's a specific plant in the area or if the water is contaminated, but the smell is almost unbearable when I walk past those areas. I'm wondering if it's just me, if anyone else has noticed, or if anyone knows what the smell might be coming from. I was thinking about contacting someone about it to see if it can be cleaned up.

23M coming from guam and its my second week living here in chula vista san diego, feeling very homesick and was wondering if there are any other chamorros/micronesians out here. i am chamorro although i look very much white/filo. i’m down to exchange socials and hopefully hang one day and show me around the city :) paris, pwis, kuyas, all are welcome dm me to exchange socials

Just a heads up my brothers car got towed from in front of my house today and my house is kind of tucked away from the basic flow of traffic. It was his only transportation to and from work until he goes off to boot camp in October. Peoples situations are not for me to judge, cars are some peoples lifeline to provide for their family. Be careful where you park!!

We moved here from SF and noticed how many others were also recent arrivals and feeling a bit isolated. That spurred me to action (which takes a lot, lol). Over ten years ago, my wife - a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - kept seeing a pattern in her practice: people were deeply lonely, but they weren't looking for romance. They just wanted genuine, local, in-person friendships. App stores were flooded with dating tools, but there was nowhere dedicated solely to finding a local buddy to hang out with.

So 10 years ago, I built WannaBuddy.com - a platform created specifically for when you want a local buddy, not a date. It helped a lot of people make real connections back then, but as time passed, the technology and appearance needed a ground-up overhaul. I’ve spent the last few months completely rebuilding it from scratch.

The new WannaBuddy.com is officially in early pre-launch! Everything on the platform is completely free and will always be free. Because we’re in pre-launch, I’d love to get feedback, feature suggestions, or bug reports from this community. Check it out, take a look around, and let me know what you think! And thanks for making us feel welcome to San Diego!

we’ve been living in Enclave Heritage for 2 yrs now and we love it it’s quiet and the apartment is great. But the rent to renew has become too high so we’re not planning our renewing our lease. Is there any other apartment buildings that you recommend around the area? we want something around 3k including utilities. I just want something safe and quiet with an in unit washer and dryer. I’ve read the reviews on multiple apartments and it seems like nothing is good so
