Surf Diva, the La Jolla, California based women’s surf camp, retail store, and clothing brand is in the middle of a permit battle over professional surf camp access to the waves at La Jolla Shores between Menehune Surf‘s Darren Fulhorst and the City of San Diego’s Real Estate Assets Department, according to a story in The Voice of San Diego.
But how the city has distributed those permits in the last four years is threatening to put one of those companies, Menehune Surf, out of business, said Darren Fulhorst, the company’s owner. When his competitor, Surf Diva, was granted only two of the three permits it bid on in 2005, the city circumvented the formal bidding process to create a fifth permit at La Jolla Shores, which it granted to Surf Diva, and in the years since has been unwilling to account for how or why it did so.
Probably just another case of Isabelle Tihanyi handling handling her business.
