Parking Citation Confusion

Hey, I don’t usually post here, but I wanted to get some input or hear others' experiences with citations at Huntington Beach. A couple of months ago, I was there to catch the blue waves. I got out around 8:08 PM, put on my jacket, and headed to the kiosk to pay for parking. I paid at 8:10 PM (this is important for later) and then went on to enjoy the waves with my girlfriend. When we returned, I found a parking citation on my dash, stating it was issued at 8:12 PM and fined me $65. The fine seemed ridiculously high, especially since I paid before the citation was printed, so I appealed it right away.

It took two months for my appeal to get a response, and when I finally heard back, the letter simply said, “Reason: The reason given does not invalidate the citation. Dismissed as a one-time courtesy.”

While I’m grateful the citation was dismissed, I think it’s absurd how predatory the timing of that citation was. There was a line at the kiosk, and a group of girls who parked around the same time we did also received citations. I can’t imagine how frustrating this would be for an elderly or disabled person. This experience has definitely made me hesitant to visit Huntington Beach again, which is a shame because I really love the beach there.

Anyone have any similar experiences?

Huntington Beach to Burbank Airport commute time

Hi guys,

I’ll be in Huntington Beach for the weekend and I’ll be flying out of Burbank airport Monday morning at 10:30am. The maps say that it’ll take an hour or so to drive there, but I kind of feel like that’s a lie. I would like to know from other’s experiences how long will it really take to get there and if I should get a hotel near Burbank Sunday night instead. Thanks so much for the help!

HB Handyman for leaking garage roof

My flat garage roof in downtown HB is leaking at the seams of the silicone covering that was put up last year (TropiCool).

Any recommendations for reasonable handymen/roofers who could address this without overcharging?

This probably a 3/4 hour job max. Thank you!

What kind of commute should I expect?

Hi all, I am from central California looking to move to HB soon. Always loved visiting and finally have enough experience to have a good chance towards a decent paying job in my field. I am wondering what commutes would be like going to other cities during rush hour, namely Irvine, Garden Grove, Santa Ana and Costa Mesa. I know SoCal traffic is a whole different world. Thanks! :)

FBI Activity in Westminster

Hello!

I originally posted this to the Westminster page, but it's so small I hoped to branch out to the neighbors. Heard about some FBI activity early this morning on Nelson Street (Edinger x Magnolia). I've been waiting for updates in the news but it's been crickets. Has anyone heard anything?

Is the Ascon landfill totally cleaned up? How far away is safe to live from the site?

I found an apartment that is around 1.7 miles north of the Ascon toxic site by Edison high school but then read in an older OCRegister article that someone who lived around a mile north was having adverse health effects when the city was cleaning it up in 2019. I also read that there has been a high amount of cancer among people who lived in the area throughout the decades.

Has the landfill been fully cleaned up yet and what is a safe distance to live away from the site?

Shady Activity by the City of HB RE: the successful Library Petitions. It seems the city is trying to goad people into answering yes to these questions, so as to get the petitioners in trouble or to argue that they were misled by the petitioners.
