The ruling issued Thursday by a three-judge panel of the 6th District Court of Appeal slapped down an appeal filed by the Save Our Waterfront Committee.

The project, approved by the Monterey City Council in June 2004, calls for its own water supply from a desalination plant because the city has no more water available. The City Council volunteered to serve as the board of directors of the special district for the desalination plant.

The project, first proposed in 1997, calls for four buildings in a 92,000-square-foot complex on both sides of Cannery Row with shops,restaurant space, 38 market-rate condominiums and 13 low-cost housing units.

Greedy Realtors Ruin People’s Lives

Think they really care?

Realty Pig

After visiting an open house one Sunday, they met a Realtor and were coaxed into making a full-price offer. Before they knew it, they were in contract to purchase an 863-square- foot, two-bedroom house for $609,000.

Their Realtor referred them to a mortgage representative, who took their application and suggested they go with the “stated income” format. They recall the phrase he used: “Your incomes need to match the home you are buying.” Apparently theirs did not, so he raised the income numbers by 40 percent.

Face It, No P.G. Merchants Want The Farmers Market

Public transit would be impacted by moving the market away from the animal clinic. Who gets impacted more – people that go to the vet’s office between 4:00pm and closing, or people that ride the bus?

Monterey has a weekly farmers market that blocks the entire length of Alvarado street from car traffic and no one complains.

Wednesday, the Pacific Grove City Council will hold a public hearing on the location of the market, after which members are expected to decide the day — Saturdays are also being considered — and location. The hearing will be held in council chambers at 6 p.m. at 300 Forest Ave.

The appeal to change locations was led by veterinarian Jennifer Wernsing who said that keeping the market near 18th Street would affect clients at her Cottage Veterinary Care Clinic at 172 16th St.

“The (city) made a small accommodation,” Wernsing said. “I don’t think that is one that will be satisfactory for providing access for our clients and not enough for the merchants near us.”

P.G. Farmers Market Faces Another Challenge

Posted on by

So we know that Grove Market opposes the farmers market because it’s competition. Ron’s Liquors opposes it because all of the veggie loving crowd will make the consumers of tobacco, booze & pr0n shop elsewhere, now a veterinarian says nay nay because people would not be able to drive down the one way street . . .Cottage Vet

But Cottage Veterinary Care owner Jennifer Wernsing, whose business is on 16th Street, has appealed the planning commission’s approval of the location, requesting instead the market be held between 15th and 13th streets or on Saturdays.

“This street closure would be a terrible obstacle for each of my 3,000-plus local clients and their beloved pets,” Wernsing wrote in her appeal, dated June 26.

Wernsing contends that would require clients and pets to walk several blocks to her office.

For one business hour on Mondays, people would need to walk half a block from Central (or cut through the parking lot across the street). Hardly the “several blocks” she states. Makes it sound like all 3,000 customers would be arriving at 4:05 pm on Monday. Is she related to Grove Market or Ron’s Liquors?

Water Crew Digs Up Cable, P.G Service Out For 6 Hours

Posted on by

A main trunk line containing 96 individual fiber-optic lines was severed by a utility crew digging on Ronda Road near Spruance Road in Pebble Beach. That cut cable service at 11:02 a.m., said Andrew Johnson, regional spokesman for Comcast Corp.

Before digging, the usual practice is to alert other utilities with lines in the area, and the utilities use spray paint to mark the location of those lines, Niccum said. There wasn’t a mark indicating the 2-inch cable TV line was underground in this case, and some of the individual fiber-optic lines were cut by a backhoe, he said.
