Jocks. Sheeshe.
A 16-year-old boy who is a football player at Pacific Grove High School was identified this week as the person who made a bomb threat against Carmel High School, investigators said.
The student used a social media campus feed app, Ogle, to write an anonymous message Feb. 21. The Carmel-Pacific Grove rivalry hits it peak during the annual Shoe Game in November.
Deputies traced Ogle messages back to the football player, served search warrants and interviewed him.
Family members called 911 because a man was having a mental health “crisis,” police said.
When officers arrived, the man was standing in the backyard holding a knife to his chest.
Officers talked to the man for more than two hours and convinced him to put the knife down.
He was handcuffed and escorted into an ambulance for a mental evaluation.
Thank you Monterey Herald (March 27), Monterey County Weekly, Cedar Street Times, Carmel Pine Cone and KSBW television for endorsing Measure X, that will change zoning at the American Tin Cannery to allow a hotel at the site.
Thank you Mayor Bill Kampe, former mayors Carmelita Garcia and Jeanne Byrne, former councilman Alan Cohen, former school board member Beth Shammas and retired teacher Jean Anton for signing the argument in favor of Measure X in the voter guide. Others that signed the argument in favor, include civic leader Richard Stillwell, First Awakenings owner Craig Bell, and general manager of Asilomar Conference Grounds, Mairead Hennessy. Opposition to the argument was signed by only two residents.

Man population is dropping like butterflies. For a Man Cave to make money you need more men in P.G.
Looking at the hours of operation, one might suggest being open more than just 24 hours in a week?
At an emergency board meeting Monday, all seven members of the center’s board who were in attendance agreed on some new approaches to keep the 47-year-old center viable and the community engaged with its economic health.
“We sat down and made some real action plans. The board was just 100 percent on board and confident to march into the future.”
Specifically, Brown said, plans were laid out to display the center’s art in other venues and to have more musical and performance programs. Improvements to the center’s entrance and a new logo are also in the works.
And it’s not kelp baking in the sun at low tide or squid drying on the shore like it was years ago.
It looks like there were lessons learned after the failure to turn Holman’s into some kind of “World Class” transient stay place.
A group dubbed the Committee Against Measure X sponsored by Unite Here, Local 483, sent out fliers over the weekend to Pacific Grove voters declaring “Measure X is wrong” and asking voters to reconsider the measure because it allows a developer to avoid the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Woah, when the group that stands to gain power and money by making promises to a few hundred low wage hotel workers it against it there must be something under the covers going on.
The voters’ guide was mailed out, I like the bait this project is trying to use to hook y’all:
Recognition of Pacific Grove as a world-class destination and an innovative leader in conservation and sustainability
More like “How did this cute little town allow this to built?
Banquet, meeting, and reception rooms that will enable Pacific Grove to host large and small events, keeping that business in Pacific Grove
Look at the next line and tell me, who from P.G would use this place?
New luxury travelers who will patronize Pacific Grove restaurants, shops, and other businesses
The type of people that stay there will make the choice of Cannery Row or Carmel, not P.G.
State-of-the-art design, construction, and operational programs and technologies, as one of the world’s most sustainable hotels, that will save and recycle significant amounts of water and energy and reduce pollution and greenhouse gases
Ha! I knew someone would throw in the Substainable word once, but TWICE?
An ideal location at the edge of town that will help mitigate traffic impacts and provide additional needed parking for the City, resulting in reduced downtown congestion
Never mind that slow and getting slower traffic jam on Lighthouse Avenue to the tunnel.
A visitor and interpretive center and museum that will celebrate Pacific Grove’s extraordinary culture, its heritage and historic character, and its unequalled scenic beauty
A tribute to the scenery that will never come back
New revenues from transient occupancy taxes, property taxes, and sales and use taxes to support our library, police, fire department, parks, and other City services and operations
New opportunities for thieves.
Three hundred permanent high quality hotel jobs for workers of all skill and education levels, many of whom will be residents of Pacific Grove, plus hundreds of high quality construction phase jobs, many of which will benefit Pacific Grove businesses and residents
Most of the workers at hotels in PG cannot afford to live there. See the part about the traffic to and from PG.
At first it kind of appealed to me, keep the touristas at the border of town, pray that they stay on the ‘row and don’t bother me. But the thing is now sounding like the city whoring itself out to get a few bucks. Vote NO on Measure X.
Not even built yet and getting their name in there. Does CEQA relate to the NLRB or AFL-CIO?

Jeffery Rutt – the Pacific Grove resident arrested after leading deputies on a car chase two months ago when he was caught breaking into cars — has already pleaded guilty to multiple crimes and sentenced to three years in prison.
Although they live in the same P.G. home and share a last name, it’s unknown how Jeffrey Rutt is related to Jason Rutt, who was arrested for burglary in 2014 and drug offenses in 2012, when he was already on probation for an earlier offense. In the 2014 case, Jason Rutt, then 29, trashed a home on Sage Court while spending all day inside, making himself at home, rifling through the owner’s
possessions and stealing luggage and jewelry. “The house was basically ransacked, and food was eaten. He was probably there all day,” thenPGPD Cmdr. Cassie McSorley said at the time.
I once had one that left angry notes on my car if I parked on the street in front of his house. He had one car and always parked in his driveway. He never spoke to me, just kept leaving notes and reporting my daily driven car as abandoned.
One visit from his crabby ex wife and the war was on.
Hackett, who declined interview requests from The Pine Cone, has also complained about the size of the home’s natural gas lines, the placement of its electrical panel, and the custom wood garage doors the Travailles installed. He even Renovation turns into nightmare, thanks to picky complained that the house was a couple of inches bigger than the plans showed, the Travailles said.
Hackett’s problem with the project seemed to be at an end when he sent a “Happy New Year” email message to Kuehl and the Travailles on Jan. 1 — just a few days after he asked that the house be red-tagged.
Multi million dollar condos is the kind of town Pacific Grove is.
(Hahn) described 25 condominium units that will be located on the mezzanine, second, third and fourth floors and the rooftop as “very upscale” with 22 of them having ocean views and all priced according to the market and square footage. He expects them to be completed and up for sale by late 2017 or early 2018.the condominiums will range in price from $500,000 to upward of $2 million.
“As we build it, we want to honor the kind of town Pacific Grove is,” said Hahn, “and have it evolve in the right way.”
