Building is cursed. Once home to a repeating “Going Out Of Business” store. Closed  Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, Too

Tuesday Morning OOB

A discount home goods retailer is closing the majority of its stores in California — and more than half of its locations nationwide — after filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection last week.

It’s the second time Tuesday Morning has filed for bankruptcy protection in three years. Challenges from the pandemic including temporary closures and employee furloughs forced the Dallas-headquartered company to shutter more than 200 of its nearly 700 stores in 2020.

No, it was not John Denver.

“The Pacific Grove Police Department was notified by Bureau of Land Management employees that human remains had been partially unearthed at a known archaeological site within federal jurisdiction,” the PGPD reported.
Police Chief Cathy Madalone told The Pine Cone they were found on the 1400 block of Ocean View, an area along the coast and across the street from a city recycled-water treatment plant.

Carjacking On Forest Ave

While a passenger was in the car. Drove to Country Club Gate of all places. Looking to steal drugs?

Zachary Drehobl, 36, was booked into the Monterey County Jail on charges of carjacking, kidnapping, possession of a stolen vehicle, possession of stolen property, trespassing, tampering with a vehicle, resisting arrest and driving on a suspended license.

After an investigation, police suspected Drehobl had stolen a Mazda Miata out of Monterey, drove it to the Chevron station on Forest Avenue in Pacific Grove, and carjacked a Chevrolet Corvette Stingray with the passenger still inside. He then drove to the Country Club Gate site, the release said, where he attempted to forcibly remove the passenger.

City Council Fires Tina Rau

No to Tina Rau and other divisive applicants. Don’t forget.

Resident Carol Marquart at the Jan. 9 meeting echoed a growing number of residents’ concerns that the DEI task force is only inclusive and accepting of citizens who are in lockstep with its goals, and she called for new members to replace the incumbents.

“I’d like to see a new group of people with the same passion that you have — only less divisive,” Marquart said at the meeting.

For example, after it was discovered late last year that Rau had mocked Catholics and other Christians in a Twitter post, Rau doubled down on the comment and initially refused to apologize. Her task force colleagues also refused at first to condemn the anti-Christian comments — which some called hypocritical considering the task force promotes “diversity and inclusion.”

Losers Keep On Losin’

Hello Loser

Wachs has not lived in P.G. long enough to contribute anything of substance. And Tina Rau was an embarrassment.

Pacific Grove Mayor Bill Peake’s appointments to the city’s boards and commissions raised some eyebrows when the list was released in an agenda report for the P.G. City Council meeting taking place tonight, Jan. 18. In one case, it appears he snubbed his political opponent in the Nov. 7 election, Mike Wachs.

The chair of the DEI Task Force, Tina Rau, was also rejected in her bid to remain on the task force, in a surprising move by Peake who rejected two other members who wanted to retain their seats. He did appoint one woman, Marie Hunter, who in her application called into question DEI principles.

According to law enforcement, Corey became heavily intoxicated at The Lodge at Pebble Beach. Security asked Corey to leave and began to escort her to her room at Pebble Beach when she refused to comply. After resisting security the sheriff’s office was called.

Deputies arrived and attempted to get Corey back to her room when she started to stand in the middle of the road and stop traffic, the sheriff’s office reported.

When deputies attempted to arrest Corey for trespassing at Pebble Beach security’s request, she then kicked at officers. Later, once she was in the back of a patrol vehicle, she allegedly kicked at the back windows of the vehicle.

Tear Down The Parklets

Some are empty more than they are used. Some have unsafe conditions.

Parklett Parking

Prompting those letters was an 86-page report by a P.G. Planning Commission subcommittee that recommended 14 rules for parklets. Those rules would have meant all existing parklets would have to be torn down; some could have and rebuilt much smaller, and at least five of the current 13 parklets would have been eliminated entirely.

Despite pleas from restaurant owners who said the new rules would hurt their businesses in a time of inflation and other challenges, the Planning Commission voted 4-1 on Dec. 8 to send the recommendations to the City Council.

 

Some of the commission’s recommendations went beyond what was required by existing codes, said John Kuehl, the city’s chief building official. While the planning commissioners were concerned about safety, Kuehl suggested that some people’s perception of what’s safe may not correlate with laws already in place.
