San Diego’s most turbulent budget season in at least a decade took another turn Tuesday when Mayor Todd Gloria vetoed some last-minute cuts and expenditures the City Council added to the budget a week ago.

A controversial new “daylighting” law that makes it illegal to park within 20 feet of an intersection is generating so much cash for San Diego that it has become a factor in how the city plans to close a gaping budget deficit. Critics say the city, which raised fines for the new violation from $77.50 to $117 two days after enforcement began March 1, is trying to balance its budget on the backs of unsuspecting drivers unaware of the new law.
