The County of San Diego Board of Supervisors meeting on April 23, 2025, featured a significant public comment session focused on air quality concerns and allegations of corruption within the Air Pollution Control District.

The meeting began with a brief introduction, followed by public comments. One of the key speakers, Cesar Javier, addressed the board, expressing frustration over the ongoing toxicity issues affecting his community. He emphasized that both he and his wife, Purita, are victims of air pollution and called for accountability from the Air Pollution Control District.

Javier directed his comments towards board member Mom Reimer, urging her to resign due to what he described as a failure to address the toxicity problem. He accused the board of corruption and claimed that their actions were protecting their interests rather than the health of the community. Javier highlighted his engagement with the Air Commission Board since February 2022 and criticized the limited support provided to victims of air pollution.

He concluded his remarks by questioning the jurisdiction of the board and the effectiveness of their response to community concerns, stating that the board's representatives had dismissed his inquiries as outside their jurisdiction.

The meeting underscored the ongoing tensions between community members advocating for better air quality and the officials responsible for managing pollution control. The board's response to these allegations and the next steps in addressing air quality issues remain to be seen as the meeting progressed.
