No functioning bathroom? Eeeew.
City officials said on Monday that the bakery had to cease operations so that the building’s owner, Gary Delahanty of Carmel, could make major repairs to a non-functioning employee bathroom and a leaking lateral sewer line that runs to Forest Avenue.
According to Harvey, there has been a long-term dispute between Pavel’s management and the property owner that came to a head recently when the Monterey County Health Department got wind of the non-functioning employee bathroom. The city soon got involved, and once city Building Official John Kuehl determined repairs had to be made, Harvey said they had no choice but to shut down Pavel’s until repairs were complete.
