This one I saw someone from the do-no-wrong Grove Market emptying garbage and walked away leaving it open.

Got two signs at the rec trail (where the chief said there were none)

This huge Lovers Point sign at the beach.

Another smaller sign at Otter Point

Then it gets weird. Over at Point Pinos it says Asilomar

One turnout is named Crespi Pond

The P.G. planning commission on May 13 voted 4-3 to reject a petition by Valero owner Surya Raj Shrestha to sell hard alcohol at the business at 1140 Forest Avenue. Shrestha paid $1,140.50 to city hall to appeal the decision, which the city council was expected to consider Wednesday, but instead tabled it to July 7. “It is not fair for me not to have a full liquor license for my business,” Shrestha wrote in his appeal.

Pollacci appeared in a Salinas courtroom Friday via zoom at which time he was supposed to be arraigned on the petition.

Pollacci appeared to have no idea prosecutors were planning to pursue the ‘sexually violent predator designation.
