Bayview School In Danger Of Closing
That’s the last school in New Monterey. They should be able to enroll children from P.G.

But there is another reason why administrators seem to prefer the closure of Bay View: With a capacity of 350 students, the school is not receiving enough income from the state — which allots a certain amount of money for each student — to pay for itself. With an estimated $21billion deficit on the horizon for California, administrators are almost certain more budget cuts are on the way.
Last year, administrators at MPUSD determined that, for an elementary school to break even financially, it had to house 360 students — it would spend $1.6million and receive $1.6million from the state. Schools whose enrollment falls below that number — like Bay View — are practically “deficit spending.”
Wave Street Studio Trying To Remix Parking Offset Cost
Man builds a TV studio in the middle of a tourist destination then has issues with parking requirements. Huh?
Looks like all that greenwashing didn’t amount to much. Was it worth it?

The city, he said, led him to believe he would receive parking variances and water allocations in return for his restoration of the historic property and his “green” building practices with the new additions.
The minutes of the meeting show Mayor Chuck Della Sala adjourned it to allow Rerig to call Smith and see if he wished to attend. Rerig said Smith told him he considered the matter “a done deal,” didn’t plan to attend and didn’t care if the council took action or continued the matter.
He said the council cut Smith’s monthly parking fee payment in half, from $948 to $474 a month. He said Smith owes the city $12,326 in parking fees and has not been paying the monthly amount. No payments have been received in a year, Rerig said, and no penalties or interest charges are being levied by the city.
