Geeze, PB’s workers told they are in the wrong place. All I ever saw in the forests over the boundary was trash and yard clippings dumped by P.G. residents.
In giving the 24-unit project the thumbs-up, the supervisors praised the proposal as an exemplary effort by a private company to provide employee housing and rejected the opponents’ argument that the project was in the wrong place.
Opponents, led by attorney Pearl Kan, who filed an appeal of the county Planning Commission approval of the proposal in June insisted they supported affordable housing, including in the toney forest, but argued the proposed 13.2-acre site off SFB Morse Drive adjacent to the Del Monte Park neighborhood of Pacific Grove was the wrong site because development would mean losing 725 trees in the Monterey pine forest and a prized location often visited by the neighbors.
