Aint that stupid? Sending drugs in the mail.
A package containing furanyl-fentanyl, a synthetic opioid, sent through the Postal Service to a subject in Monterey was intercepted Monday. Deputies and the DEA served a two-location federal search warrant in Monterey on Tuesday and arrested Madeline Sweet, 28, and her boyfriend, Everette Cody Reed, 28. Both were taken to county jail. Sweet and Reed face up to 20 years in prison and a $1 million fine.
Hanes said her frustration also comes from the fact that during Monday’s appeal hearing, she and her husband were not allowed to present prior evidence that Magsalay doctored photos depicting Bruiser’s excrement was worse than it was. Murdock had thrown that evidence out prior to the initial July hearing and because of that it could not be presented during Monday’s appeal, according to Hanes.
“We couldn’t say anything that wasn’t presented in that initial hearing,” said Hanes. “We had to present a case that was a joke from the beginning.”
Problem is that the bums already disregard responsibility by living their chosen lifestyle. Maintaining any home requires responsibility. Attracting more bums will kill the golden egg laying goose.
Prior to Tuesday’s meeting, commercial parcels in the Lighthouse/Foam/Cannery Row area and all of Monterey’s Oak Grove neighborhood and parts of Casanova Oak Knoll, Del Monte, Del Monte Beach and Villa Del Monte neighborhoods were under consideration.
Public comment on Tuesday also centered on excluding the R3 district with one Laguna Grande resident noting the heavy impact that area is already experiencing from the homeless.
Glenwood neighborhood representative Lee Whitney said residents there were also putting out fires — both figuratively and literally — from the homeless population.
Comments like these came amid other comments about the Peninsula’s overall homeless epidemic and warnings to city officials that housing is but one ingredient to a real solution.
With the possibility of a hobbled Coast Guard on the Central Coast, local entities that have relied on the guard in the past may have to adjust their expectations.
“We utilize them but not on a routine basis,” said Sean James, the public safety superintendent for the California State Parks’ Monterey District.
“Monterey or Pacific Grove might put in a request where the Coast Guard is not available to respond,” said James.
There might be times when the State Parks’ rescue swimmers would be called in because a Coast Guard boat was not available. Water rescues in the Cannery Row, Point Pinos and Moss Landing areas benefit from the presence of the guard close by.
Hands off my stale beer used on the snails.
A group of area activists are expected to gather at Pacific Grove’s Butterfly Sanctuary on Tuesday in defense of the birds, bees, monarchs and visitors that frequent the refuge to observe them.
They’ll be on hand for a press conference and rally starting at 3:30 p.m. in an effort to call attention to the effects of toxic pesticides and insecticides and to make a plea to local nurseries and hardware stores to remove such products from their shelves.
Forget going off the beaten path. Makes room for the John Denver Memorial RV Park.
On Wednesday, the city will look to approve an agreement for the construction of its Great Tide Pools Trails project. In the session right before the meeting, council members will go on a field trip to the Great Tide Pools area which is adjacent to the corner of Lighthouse Avenue and Sunset Drive. It’s in the area that Dan Gho, director of public works, refers to as the Rocky Shores area. There council members will get an overview of where the boardwalk, pathway and walkways are to be constructed.
Yall voted for the people that enact these laws, enjoy what you get.
the city has no choice but to designate such a district soon in order to be in compliance with Senate Bill 2. The bill mandates that a city’s zoning encourages and facilitates emergency shelters and limits their denial.
The last time Monterey resident Elaine MacDonald lived near a homeless services program she said she witnessed loitering, received some unwelcome gawking and often found drug paraphernalia in her front yard. It was enough to make the single mother stay inside and keep her children there, too.
Areas now in consideration for the overlay include commercial parcels in the Lighthouse/Foam/Cannery Row area, general parcels downtown along Tyler and Washington Streets and to Lake El Estero, as well as above City Hall and additional areas along Del Monte Avenue, Cass Street and Munras Avenue. All of Monterey’s Oak Grove neighborhood and parts of Casanova Oak Knoll, Del Monte, Del Monte Beach and Villa Del Monte neighborhoods are also under consideration, as are the industrial zoning areas of Garden Road, Ryan Ranch and along Highway 68.
Would be interesting to review the site with modern science. But what do I know? Climate Change was supposed to put the are under water 30 years ago and the Mvsevm Of Natural History is now an art gallery.
An archaeological site first discovered in the 1930s at Lovers Point and recently exposed to the elements by the fierce winter storms that hit the Peninsula, is set to be covered up again as early as this week.
covered in 1935 by a student named Anne Fisher who conducted an amateur survey around the Peninsula and noted nearly 100 archaeological sites. It has been known in the archaeological community ever since.
Whenever an empty cannery was on fire, that horn seemed to be endless to me.
The horn was part of the fine volunteer tradition in Pacific Grove. We all had posted in our homes the code telling the approximate location of the fire. “One, One, Three” Forest and Lighthouse, and there was a chalkboard in front of the station with the address of the blaze
Soon one on every street!
It was in 1995 that the town adopted a ban on any additional “formula fast food” establishments in the city. The coffee chain store was “grandfathered in” and will occupy two-thirds of the property at Country Club Gate where McDonald’s used to reside. It still isn’t clear what business will occupy the remainder of the building there.
