San Diego City Attorney, Mara Elliott has asked the City Council to consider a draft ordinance that would require mandatory locked storage of firearms in the home and would propose a conflicting law regarding the reporting of lost or stolen firearms. Ms. Elliott works closely with gun control advocates in the City and made a strong effort to justify her request for the City to take action at the June meeting of the Public Safety and Livable Neighborhoods Committee. While the Committee was divided on the issue, the proposal did get enough votes to put it before the full City Council for consideration.
CRPA has submitted a letter of opposition to the City Council outlining all of the missed considerations and statistics showing that mandatory storage laws do not keep people safe and are ineffective in accomplishing the goals outlined by the City Attorney. The City Council will consider the draft resolution on Monday, July 15, 2019 at 2:00 p.m. in the City Administration Building, Council Chambers, 12th Floor, 202 “C” Street, San Diego, CA, 92101.
We need your help! If you are in the San Diego area and can attend the meeting, please plan on being there and speaking against this item on the Agenda. It is important that the City Council hears a strong voice of opposition to these ineffective proposals.
If you cannot be at the meeting, please take a moment to submit a comment via the Agenda Comment Form. These comments will be made part of the official record and it is important that the City Council hears from gun owners and Second Amendment supporters in the community.
