Alcohol Bans And Curfews At DLI

Posted on by

The Army told its students at the school Monday they now have a 9 p.m. curfew and are forbidden from drinking alcohol, Presidio of Monterey spokesman Dan Carpenter said.

The curfew will be for students on and off campus and enforced, in part, through random in-person checks.

“It’s the Army getting serious about changing behavior,” Carpenter said.

The program was implemented as part of the Army’s effort to crackdown on sexual assaults, he said.

Carpenter said he did not have the number of sexual assaults that have taken place at the school.

“It’s not a high number,” he said.

But over on the rec trail in 2001 a couple of Marines nearly killed a woman.

Old Beach House Opening Soon

“Small Plates” = Leave broke and still hungry.

I can’t give you an exact opening date, but I can give you the first look at the menu, an eclectic take on casual California cuisine. It focuses nicely on small plates, with a signature dish called Feast of Lanterns Firecracker Shrimp, cooked crispy and paired with a spicy, cream sauce. You also will find a regionally inspired smoked wild salmon galette with a lemon-dill crme fra”che, but then the menu takes a sharp turn toward classic French with garlicky escargot. Oysters are well-represented (cooked and raw), and small-plate prices vary from $8 to $18.

Could have been better..

Held on in tough times for 5 years. Was the foolish MST project a contributor to the final straw?

The nail in the coffin for Searle, he said, was the construction of Monterey-Salinas Transit’s JAZZ line bus stops last year. He said snarled traffic kept customers away.

MST general manager Carl Sedoryk said Monday afternoon they never heard from Wiseman during construction and noted Searle has its own parking lot and no construction took place in front of it.

He did say, however, that traffic was likely backed up in front of Wiseman’s store.

“I’m sorry to see such a long-standing member of the retail community has not been able to make it,” Sedoryk said. “I’m not certain what role though our project, if any, really had on that decision.”

Sedoryk said no claims against the transit district had been filed by Lighthouse Avenue businesses.
