Country Club Gate becoming a ghost town?
The relocation will centralize Cal Am’s field operations employees and office staff, including customer service. A listing for the building by commercial real estate firm Mahoney & Associates, said “the property is conveniently situated along the Highway 68 corridor between Monterey and Salinas.” The building is located between Upper and Lower Ragsdale drives. California American Water has been located on Forest Lodge Road in Pacific Grove since 2007.
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.
Country Club Gate, crime capital of Pacific Grove,

The suspects took an undisclosed amount of money and no injuries have been reported.Multiple witnesses were able to provide valuable information, including a great vehicle description.

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.
Moe never supports anything south of Sinex. Good
America’s Last Hometown, which in 1995 adopted a ban on any additional “formula fast food” establishments in the city, is getting a new Starbucks.
The coffee chain store is being “grandfathered in” as it will occupy two-thirds of the property at 100 Country Club Gate where McDonald’s used to preside. It still isn’t clear what business will occupy the remainder of the building there.
Pacific Grove Chamber of Commerce President Moe Ammar confirmed the news, acknowledging it was good for Starbucks lovers while noting that Pacific Grove residents tend to be loyal to local coffeehouses rather than corporate coffee chains.
Other locations are close (permanently)
Thought to be the slowest McDonald’s in the world but it held on.
In 1995, the city adopted a ban on any “formula fast food” establishments coming in, but the four existing fast-food spots were grandfathered in and allowed to remain. Today those spots are occupied by McDonald’s, Subway, Mountain Mike’s and Domino’s.
Moammar discovers the secret of PG’s business areas south of Sinex and will help kill that too, undoubtedly.
“It attracts people from different walks of life and has the most diverse group of people because it’s affordable,” said Ammar, noting the many times he’s seen the restaurant packed with senior citizens in the morning having coffee. “Last week I must have seen 18 different groups of people in there ranging from children to teens to construction workers and seniors.”
No drive up window and rent hikes push the affordable family burger chain to leave after winning the fight to build in P.G. back in 1974 when the town was more serving to residents.
While the building that the fast food restaurant is located in at 100 Country Club Gate was sold in January, 2014, the golden arches remained. But now, the building is up for lease and McDonald’s is departing America’s last hometown.
“Somebody bought the property where McDonald’s is and now they want to increase the rent but McDonald’s can’t afford it,” said Pacific Grove’s Chamber of Commerce President Moe Ammar.
Lock your doors people!
PGPD say 29-year-old Jason Rutt entered the home through an unlocked door and proceeded to shower, eat a meal, then went into the small children’s bedroom and began feeding them.
The parents at the home awoke when they heard the shower water running, Rutt took off and investigators believe he burglarized two more homes gaining access through unlocked garages.
Crime is alive and well at Country Club Gate. Looks like one of them was stealing Sharpie pens.
One of them, police said, tried to spray an employee with pepper spray.
Employees watched them run into a residential area and kept in contact with police by cellphone, and four of the six were caught and arrested, investigators said.
They were Jamilah Lynn Barth, 26, of Boulder Creek; Kelly Lynn Loretz, 26, of Ben Lomond; Patrice Roxmary Hayes, 24, of Fremont; and Jasmine Robinlsa Magnuson, 23, of Watsonville, police said
The shopping center has been a training academy for young criminals. Add stupid young criminals – this one thought the bank would have money left out of the vault for the taking.
A 19-year-old Pacific Grove man was arrested on suspicion of burglary and vandalism early Sunday after he reportedly broke a window at the Chase Bank at 170 Country Club Center, then climbed in to look for money.
The broken window caused an alarm to sound just before 6 a.m., police said, and they arrived to find Curtis Vanderslice, near the bank.
Vanderslice admitted breaking the window and going inside, police said. He was booked into county jail.
