Ride A Pedicab From Cannery Row To Patisserie Bechler

Sure. I’d pay dollar for that.

Hosler said pedicabs were prohibited in the past in Monterey, but that gets kind of dicey. Elizabeth Caraker, the housing and community development manager, said pedicabs have always been allowed by California Vehicle Code.

• Operators must pay a $194.12 fee that is calculated on the time a Monterey Police Department services assistant to process the permit.

• No one younger than 21 may operate a pedicab.

• Operators must possess liability insurance.

• Passenger fares must be posted in the pedicab vehicle.

• Pedicabs must park in the same parking spaces as cars.

• Permits can be revoked if the operator is convicted of a violent crime.

• Permits can be revoked if the operator is convicted of any misdemeanor or felony driving under the influence charge.

• Permits can be revoked if the operator is convicted of any sex crime that requires them to register as sex offender.

Four Way Stop Coming To Pine & Congress

The Pine Avenue work has been discussed at P.G. traffic commission and city council meetings for more than five years.
But the four-way stop will be something that drivers will have to get used to.
“We are going to have to make sure that the public now knows there is a four-way stop at Congress,” Gho said.

Good luck with that. People don’t stop on Congress where stop signs have been for decades.

Pride Flags Fly In P.G.

PG PD Pride Flag

Not everyone’s pleased, though. The rainbow flags — which the city is flying in place of the city flag at the police station — have annoyed some citizens, including Larry Esquivel, who sent a letter to the city council this week.

“I have nothing against the flying of the LGBTQ flag,” Esquivel said, “but it should not be on the same pole as the United States flag. It can be on a separate pole or on the wall of the building.” Esquivel, a retired reserve Pacific Grove Fire captain and police officer and Vietnam veteran, said the stars and stripes “means a lot” to him and others, including military veterans.

The word “united,” he said, “means all of us; race, sex, religion and so on.” Esquivel also cautioned displaying the pride flag “just to make a statement.” Doing so, he said, could open the door for “NRA, KKK, religious, Confederate” and other flags to be flown at city hall

Schellhous, 51, remained in county jail Wednesday after being picked up by police June 18 for being with another probationer.
