Paul was kind enough to point out that there is a bug in the current version of PostGIS that makes funky character encodings. Once v2.2 is out, we should upgrade so Metro Extract shapefiles get the new new.

From Paul: "@mapzen unfortunately though you specify SHAPE_ENCODING the DBFs still have a WIN1252 encoding header, limitation of pgsql2shp, fix in 2.2" on September 23, 2015
