At the end of August 2011, Kristin pulled another one. As North County Times reports in the editorial raspberry, Councilwoman Gaspar wouldn't vote on Pacific View property appeal because it started before she was elected.
The raspberry from the press wasn't the only source to call out this pathetic attempt to dodge a vote for seven months. Jean Bernard Minster spoke at this meeting about Gaspar's dereliction of duty. He also chides the councilwoman and city attorney for the misuse of the term "recuse" instead of "abstain" repeated over and over in the councilwoman's excuse.
