The two parcels of land are on the corner of Highway 101 and La Costa Avenue known as Surfer's Point. On Wednesday, the City of Encinitas voted 5-0 in favor of buying the land for $6 million. “It’s a big number, not easy to come up with for a city like Encinitas, but we all kind of followed Mark Twain maxim that you buy land because they’re not making it anymore," said Encinitas Mayor Tony Kranz. Karen Heiser lives right next door to the land and enjoys the beautiful sunset views on a clear day.
