Pollacci Defense Says He Has A Reputation
She also noted a comment by a Monterey County judge, who stated, “Pollacci has a reputation that is well-known, long-lasting and enduring as a rapist in this community.”
The study also included a doctored photo of a sign that pretended to be in front of Ron’s Liquors on Lighthouse Avenue in Pacific Grove that said “Parking only for registered sex offenders.” The photo appeared on local Internet message boards.
pretended to be in front of Ron’s Liquors? The sign was already on the sidewalk in front of the liquor store. That very Ron’s Liquors sidewalk sign that claims the public parking spaces on Lighthouse Avenue are for their customers only.

Here’s the originals:
Parking Subject Comes Up Again
Jean Byrne says any kind of revenue generating parking will drive away spenders. Don’t forget the merchants that take up spaces on Lighthouse all day – Victorian Corner, Hazaras and the like.
At least this one leaves the spaces for the customers and parks in the front of the bank.
Mr. Becklenberg said there are a number of options on parking revenue as the staff looks broadly at parking in Pacific Grove. He said they would be meeting with the business community and merchants in the near future.
committee member Jeanne Byrne said, “Pay station systems are not effective and they are a detriment to people shopping.”
chairman Tom McMahon said the difficult issue before the committee was to figure out how best to construct a survey of the business community and solicit their thoughts concerning paid parking.
Mayor Garcia said pay station parking should only be considered at the large parking lots in the community.
Coastal Commission Defeats Dewey
Battle began when the meters around the fish jail went up. Meters or signs not both..
Under the plan, the parking spaces would be limited to residents or to two-hour stays during the daytime. Burgess said that would protect residents, provide visitor parking and deter all-day parking by employees from the aquarium or other nearby businesses.
In the meantime, the city will have to comply with its current permit and put bags over residents-only parking signs.
“We talked to the neighbors last week, and they understand the need,” Burgess said. “We will be bagging those signs.”
Metered Parking For McMansions On Dewey
None of these P.G. remodels on Dewey really need street parking anyway. Can’t have it both ways. Either end the permit parking or put meters up.
. . staff members of the California Coastal Commission say the daytime preferential parking accorded to the Dewey Avenue neighborhood violates terms of a 2004 permit that Pacific Grove received to install parking meters along two nearby blocks of Ocean View Boulevard.
The commission imposed the condition with the intent of providing more public parking for visitors to the shoreline. And it set a deadline this year for the city to drop the residents-only parking zone.
Residents of the neighborhood contend they need the parking privilege to prevent their streets from being inundated all day with vehicles belonging to tourists and employees from the Monterey Bay Aquarium and other Cannery Row businesses.
Hazaras Carpets Cares Not For Pacific Grove
Parked on the Avenue
Parked up the street
Parked on the corner
Parked on Forest – in the 20 minute zone
Revisiting an old theme, businesses that take up all the parking on Lighthouse Avenue. This week I had a chance to speak with one of the business people, here’s how it went:
Me, on my Saturday visit downtown to go to the bank and walk from there down to the post office. I’m at Forest and Lighthouse, waiting to turn right and park someplace. I see this short guy get into the brown Hazara Designer Collection van that is parked on Forest avenue and start it up. He’s squeezing between my car and the sidewalk to ALSO turn right. He stops, I turn and begin a parking space search. Nothing on the south side, I go down to 15th and hang a U-turn. I park on the north side in the 400 block.
At the same time the short guy is getting out of the brown rug van, now parked on Lighthouse in front of the store of the same name. What the heck, I want to see if he has an answer for me. I walk up and ask why he parks his van here and not in the lot around the block? He shrugs. Shouldn’t you leave the parking spaces available for people that come to town to shop instead of moving your van back and forth in 90 minute spaces all day? “No, what’s it matter to you?” he says. It matters to me that I might be a business owner that has customers complaining about hard to find parking spaces. It matters to me that I myself am looking for a place to park for 30 minutes and seeing your rug cleaner van taking up spaces is a poor practice. Told him I’ll never shop at his store or recommend it. He says he does not need my business or any of my friends business.
Hear that? Does not need our business. Hope he gets fleas in his rug.
Dog Drivers Win Back Parking Spaces
Dog owners “who use the space to exercise themselves and their pets” using the car to get to a place to walk the dog.
Ever thought about walking yourself and the dog to the park?
The council voted 6-1 to rescind its June 17 action prohibiting parking at Rip Van Winkle Open Space in the wake of protests by dog owners who use the space to exercise themselves and their pets.
Councilwoman Lisa Bennett dissented, voicing her objection to cutting down two oak saplings to provide space to park along Congress Avenue near David Avenue.
