6 MONTEREY COUNTY WEEKLY AUGUST 10-16, 2023 www.montereycountyweekly.com THE BUZZ FREE SPEECH A 16-person cohort has begun a year-long internship at local radio station KAZU (90.3 FM). Students work up to 20 hours a week, for $15.50/hour, and also earn academic credit. There’s no guarantee their work will air on the station—which is a professional station, not a student-run station—but Associate General Manager John Sepulvado expects listeners will hear many of their voices in the months to come. (And when two interns went on the air during the latest fund drive, their half-hour was the biggest money-maker of the entire pitch, bringing in $2,700 in donations.) Sepulvado envisions the internship program as a starting point to establish a stronger journalism presence at CSU Monterey Bay—which is home to the station, while its auxiliary University Corporation owns the station license. “We have the opportunity to help the university establish a stronger voice,” he says. “We want to be a school that is a counterweight to what I see as East Coast and Midwest journalism school dominance.” Good: Good news for locals interested in developing the skills needed to land a job in the construction industry comes via a new apprenticeship program. The Monterey County Workforce Development Board, in partnership with the Monterey/Santa Cruz Building Trades Council, has launched a 10-week, 350-hour training program. Participants can expect to learn basic skills like how to use power tools and hand tools, read a blueprint and more. They will also be able to obtain certifications in areas including safety, OSHA guidelines and first aid. After in-class training comes a four-week paid internship with local construction companies. The last day to register is Sept. 8; classes start Sept. 24 at the Plumbers and Steamfitters Local 62 in Castroville. For information or to apply, visit montereycountywdb.org/pre-apprenticeship. GREAT: For the first time since it closed due to storm damage on Jan. 4, Jacks Peak County Park is set to reopen on Friday, Aug. 11. “Jacks suffered the most damage of any county park,” says Bryan Flores, the chief of county parks. “We just got hammered.” Over 40 trees went down, including a tree that took out a PG&E transmission line, taking out service to the park’s water tank, and another tree that damaged piping to the water tank. Crews completed debris removal of downed trees after conditions dried out, in mid-April. Then came power restoration, then repairs to the water tank, which serves not just bathrooms but also potential firefighting needs. “Our tank is now full, and we’re ready to reopen,” Flores says. During the seven-month closure, crews replaced park signage and a restroom roof, among other improvements. Summer hours are 8am-7pm.

8 MONTEREY COUNTY WEEKLY AUGUST 10-16, 2023 www.montereycountyweekly.com 831 Like most college students, Tony Singer couldn’t afford his dream car. But he could visit the Porsche dealership. “They would give you a poster documenting their win at Nurburgring or LeMans,” he recalls. They decorated his apartment walls until the corners were completely pockmarked. Logan Gray also frequented dealerships, even before he was old enough to drive. He came away with a trove of the slick marketing brochures manufacturers produced for each model. As a child, Patrick Strong had to content himself with Hot Wheels. “I have been a car fanatic my entire life,” he explains. “Model cars serve as a standin for the real cars we’d like to own.” For all three, however, the art of courting future customers paid off. Strong operates Model Citizen Diecast, trading in high-end scale model cars. Gray first took to selling the old brochures at swap meets then branched out into hardcover publications, launching Vintage Motorbooks. Singer bought a Porsche in 1971. He also became hooked on automobile-related posters. “I have my personal poster collection that is all over my house,” Singer says. “We all have limited wall space.” He began selling to other collectors in 1980, a business that continues as vintageautoposters.com. But a comment from two fellow dealers inspired a more comprehensive venture. “These guys said, ‘Why don’t you do an event?’” he recalls. “What did I know about doing an event? But they were right.” Now in its 19th year, Automobilia Monterey is the nation’s signature automotive collectibles show. It features posters, of course, but also everything from historic photographs and other original art, to hood ornaments, books and other memorabilia. It has become a see-it-to-believe-it destination, a carnival midway of vendors and colors—Ferrari red, Mercedes silver, gleaming chrome, black-andwhite images, art deco pieces, dazzling fonts of magazine covers and more. “It’s my Black Friday,” Strong points out. “It’s the most important vending event in my calendar year.” For Automobilia Monterey, Singer brings together select dealers, who in turn cater to diverse interests. Before bringing a stock of books from his Portland, Oregon home, for instance, Gray checks out the featured classes at both Concours d’Elegance and the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion. “Interests shift,” he explains. “But I also find there are some subjects that will carry on. There’s always interest in Cobras and Shelby.” Gray, Strong and Singer continue to collect as well as to sell. Strong displays diecast Porsches on one wall of his Los Angeles area home. Singer is in pursuit of a 1926 poster celebrating the 24 Hours of LeMans (“you get this sense of motion and speed,” he observes. “It’s really quite something.”). Meanwhile Gray admits to limits. “The bookseller’s curse is to sit down and read a book when you should be doing something constructive,” he says with a laugh. While Strong deals in high-end diecast models—a Gerald Wingrove piece can cost as much as a real car—he appreciates a model with patina. “There’s something cool about an old toy that’s been played with,” he says. “When you’re talking about old toys, don’t forget they were toys. There’s something universal about diecasts. The little kid inside you still loves model cars.” In many ways, the appeal of automotive collectibles is in the memory of tacking posters to a wall or giving the Hot Wheels car a push. They remain enthusiasts at heart. Automobilia puts them in a group with equal passion—and money to spend. Yet Singer dismisses the idea of collecting as an investment. “My advice to people is to buy what you love,” Singer says. “You’re the person who is going to be seeing that piece. If it doesn’t rock you, what’s the point?” Automobilia Monterey takes place 10am-6pm Monday-Tuesday; 10am-4pm Wednesday, Aug. 14-16.

10 MONTEREY COUNTY WEEKLY august 10-16, 2023 www.montereycountyweekly.com news The company behind the mythical navigator who sails the seas looking for intriguing food and uncommon goods, Trader Joe’s, is seeking to expand its Monterey territory. Specifically, it is planning to take over the space next door once occupied by the now-defunct pharmacy chain Pharmaca, which sits on top of land owned by the City of Monterey at 570 Munras Ave. All 22 California Pharmaca stores closed in February, after megachain Walgreens acquired Pharmaca’s parent company, Medley Health. On July 20, the City received a request from shopping center owner ROIC Monterey LLC to consent to the expansion of Trader Joe’s, currently just over 11,000 square feet, into the 3,790-square-foot Pharmaca space, according to a report to the Monterey City Council on Aug. 1. ROIC Monterey also asked that the Trader Joe’s sublease be extended by 10 years, from the date the new lease goes into effect. The council voted in closed session agreeing to the expansion as well as the lease extension. The site originally held a Safeway grocery store beginning in 1951. Its lease was due to expire in 2006, prompting the city to issue a request for proposals in 2003. The city continued negotiating with Safeway representatives, but by 2005 couldn’t reach an agreement. Trader Joe’s made a bid and won. The city signed a ground lease in 2006 with the development company that rebuilt the shopping center, with a condition that the city must consent to any sublease. Currently Monterey receives a little over $300,000 a year in lease payments from ROIC, which in turn leases to Trader Joe’s and other stores and restaurants in the center. Trading Up Monterey City Council agrees to the expansion of Trader Joe’s into vacant Pharmaca space. By Pam Marino A coordinated effort by Monterey County law enforcement agencies to resolve long-dormant cold cases has resulted in a pair of breakthroughs—one solving a 1991 Seaside murder, another bringing more clarity to 2014’s eerie “Mom-in-the-Box” case in Monterey. On Thursday, July 31, the Monterey County District Attorney’s Office and the Seaside Police Department announced that they had identified the killer of Vicki Johnson, a 34-year-old woman who was found dead in Seaside’s Sabado Park in January 1991. Testing of DNA beneath Johnson’s fingernails matched with Frank Lewis McClure of Seaside, who died in 2021 at age 77. Johnson was the mother of three children, including Orlando Johnson, now a professional basketball player. The violent nature of her death—she was found strangled and asphyxiated—led investigators to revisit possible evidence collected on her nails during a struggle with the killer, according to Bill Clark, a detective on the county’s Cold Case Task Force. Also on July 31, the Monterey Police Department revealed that DNA testing and forensic genealogy work had revealed the true identities of Francesca Linda Jacobs, who was found dead of starvation in her Monterey apartment in 2014, as well as her mother, whose decomposed remains were discovered in a box underneath Jacobs’ kitchen table. Those efforts identified the starved woman as Linda Rae Jacobs and confirmed the woman in the box as her mother, Ida Florence Jacobs. Linda Jacobs, whose California driver’s license indicated she was 58 years old when she died, was actually 12 years older than that. No foul play is suspected, but cannot be ruled out, in the death of her mother. Clark says he spoke with family members who remembered the two women as having an “extremely close” relationship. The resolutions to both the Johnson and Jacobs cases are the work of the county’s Cold Case Task Force, which launched in 2020 as a partnership between the DA’s office, the Sheriff’s Office and local police departments. Building on previous initiatives like the Monterey Peninsula Cold Case Project and aided by a $535,000 U.S. Justice Department grant, the task force has looked to use DNA testing technology to re-investigate unsolved homicides, missing persons cases and unidentified human remains. Clark—who retired from Monterey PD in 2020 after a 31-year career, but continues to work as a reserve officer on cold cases—has led much of that work, alongside Deputy District Attorney Matt L’Heureux. Their efforts have resolved cases including the 1981 murder of Sonia HerokStone of Carmel, whose killer was sentenced to life in prison in June. “We have over 600 unsolved homicides in this county,” Clark notes. “I think it’s important for people in our communities to understand law enforcement is working on these cold cases. We have not forgotten.” The Johnson case was one that seemed forgotten before being reopened by the task force: The DNA testing technology that incriminated McClure, though not readily available in 1991, is not particularly new. Clark says he picked up the Johnson case in October 2021—the same month that McClure died. It took nearly two years to receive the DNA test results from the state Justice Department’s backlogged lab. DNA evidence helped investigators solve two cases: the 1991 murder of Vicki Johnson, left, and the identity of Linda Rae Jacobs, who starved to death in 2014. Cases Closed Monterey County’s Cold Case Task Force cracks two years-old mysteries thanks to DNA testing.

12 MONTEREY COUNTY WEEKLY august 10-16, 2023 www.montereycountyweekly.com “DANGER…KEEP OUT,” reads a notice posted to the front door of Apartment #1 at the complex at 359 Larkin St., in Monterey’s Old Town neighborhood. Piles of personal belongings, dishes left in the kitchen sink and food left on countertops are visible through the windows. It’s as if the people who lived there left suddenly, never to return. Another tenant offers a clue: The former tenants told him before they moved that broken pipes under the apartment led to mold, contaminating everything. One by one, six of the 11 permitted units in the complex, built in 1932, have been deemed uninhabitable by Monterey code enforcement officers since last December, after the city received numerous complaints from residents. Problems include mold, a hole in the ceiling of one unit, broken heaters, broken windows, disintegrating roofing and more. One bright red notice states that mold and blood were found inside. City officials wait for tenants to move out and then quickly “red tag” each unit before anyone can move in. Officials have stopped short of condemning the entire small complex, which would force all tenants out. One 20-year resident, Derek Dean, says his studio apartment has no issues. “I just love living here. I’m two blocks from the ocean and two blocks from downtown,” he says. “It’s just been like a little piece of heaven living here.” In addition to blighted conditions with other units, inspectors found three unpermitted units in addition to the 11. “We’re not sure how they added more units but that’s something we’re investigating as well,” Monterey Chief Building Official Lori L. Williamson says. Williamson adds they’ve been attempting to work with property owner and Monterey resident Leslie J. Flores since December to make improvements to the apartment complex and bring units back up to code, but Flores has been unresponsive. She says a contractor contacted the city in July about possibly making repairs. (Flores did not respond to the Weekly.) “Ultimately, if the owner doesn’t do anything, then we have to go through other means to abate that, and it’s not easy and it’s not quick,” Williamson says. Under California law, the process for municipalities to abate blighted and unsafe properties is a lengthy one involving multiple notices and hearings. The city could ultimately do the repairs and place a lien on the property to recoup expenses. For students in the Carmel Unified School District, life has moved on since March 31. They took final exams, had summer vacation and returned to a new school year that started Aug. 9. For Superintendent Ted Knight, it’s been over four months of waiting. The board of trustees placed Knight on leave on March 31 pending the outcome of a third-party investigation into his actions related to his removal of the former Carmel High School principal. It remains unclear whether the investigation by School & College Legal Services has been completed. Meanwhile, Knight remains on leave; Sharon Ofek, formerly the deputy superintendent, remains acting superintendent. In Knight’s absence, he’s been seeking a paper trail about some of what transpired leading to his departure. Representing Knight, attorney Gregory Rolen of the San Francisco firm Haight, Brown & Bonesteel submitted a request to CUSD on April 28 seeking documents under the California Public Records Act, including text messages and emails exchanged with board trustees; documents related to a sexual harassment survey; and communications pertaining to Knight’s resignation. (Knight has not resigned.) CUSD had produced some records in response to Rolen’s request, mostly calendar invitations, group emails and a copy of a lawsuit filed by a parent; district officials have indicated that they intend to hand over more documents. But for Knight’s legal team, it’s been too slow, and they believe a “vast number” of documents should be turned over. “It appears that the district is stalling,” attorney Donald Velez, Rolen’s colleague, wrote in a July 20 email to Erin Dervin, an attorney representing CUSD. Knight sued the district on July 24 in Monterey County Superior Court, seeking a court order forcing CUSD to produce more records. District officials declined to comment, but in an email to Knight’s legal team, Dervin wrote: “The district is surprised at your litigious stance.” Red Tag One by one, officials condemn blighted Monterey apartments.

14 MONTEREY COUNTY WEEKLY AUGUST 10-16, 2023 www.montereycountyweekly.com One thing that’s not in dispute is that the City of Monterey needs water. What is in question is where that water comes from. On Aug. 1, the Monterey City Council discussed the possibility of teaming up with the Marina Coast Water District for an agreement that would potentially deliver whatever water the city needs to make proposed housing developments a reality (like on Garden Road, for example, wherein office buildings near the airport would be converted to apartments). But like all things water-related, it’s not that straightforward. The backstory is that the Monterey Peninsula’s water utility—California American Water, which is privately owned—ran afoul of state regulators for over-pumping the Carmel River, leading the State Water Resources Control Board to issue a cease-and-desist order for that over-pumping in 2009. (The Cal Am service area has an annual demand of about 10,000 acre-feet.) That order has since frozen all new water meters within Cal Am’s service area, hindering new development. That’s in spite of a 2021 request from the Monterey Peninsula Water Management District asking the state to allow the district to allocate 75 acrefeet of water for projects that include affordable housing. The state denied the request. The City of Monterey, meanwhile, has been stuck in a standoff with the state over its mandated Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) numbers: The city is tasked with zoning for an additional 3,654 housing units that could be built by 2031. But one arm of the state government has been at odds with the other: The state’s Department of Housing and Community Development demands housing, while the State Water Board is preventing that housing from happening. MPWMD General Manager Dave Stoldt questions a long-term agreement with MCWD regarding water supply, for a few reasons. One, it would likely be costly, and two, what’s the point? The necessary water supply will be available in about two years, based on estimates for the Pure Water Monterey recycled water project. (With an expansion, that project is expected to provide 5,750 acre-feet of water a year.) “We’re all good with creative thinking, but we don’t want to see the Balkanization of water on the Peninsula,” Stoldt says. “When you Balkanize it, with everybody doing these one-off deals, it’s not healthy as a long-term solution.” Rem Scherzinger, MCWD’s general manager, says nothing has been formalized yet, just that he’s discussed the matter with Monterey City Manager Hans Uslar. “We’re happy to help Monterey solve their problem, even if it’s just as an adviser,” Scherzinger says. Uslar characterizes his conversations with Scherzinger as, “I like to get water, I like to build housing, let’s keep the conversation going.” He adds that they’ve discussed revamping MCWD’s desal plant, which has been mothballed for two decades. At peak production, it could theoretically provide just under 340 acre-feet annually. Water Wheel The City of Monterey is entertaining a plan to import water. It’s not without its critics. By David Schmalz In 2019, Monterey City Council approved a plan to convert office space at 2600 Garden Road into up to 405 residential units. It remains undeveloped due to lack of water.

16 MONTEREY COUNTY WEEKLY AUGUST 10-16, 2023 www.montereycountyweekly.com Soledad is the latest local city joining other jurisdictions in a transition away from at-large elections to district-based elections. The concept is that underrepresented voters are more likely to successfully elect a candidate of their choosing when they vote in a small district, rather than votes being diluted in a city at large. Soledad officials received a letter on Feb. 1, 2022, notifying them they might be violating the federal Voting Rights Act, prompting the city to embark on a transition. District-based elections in Soledad will start in 2024, and the city’s process to there started last year. The city ultimately received seven potential maps from residents and a consultant, National Demographics Corporation, presenting different configurations for drawing districts with equal population. The maps have names like “tan,” “apple,” and “501” and were presented at various community meetings. They were reviewed by the city’s Advisory Community Districting Committee, which is made up of five members, one appointed by each member of City Council. The advisory committee recommended four of the seven maps to City Council. They voted 5-0 to recommend two with four council districts (Tan and 401) and a mayor at large; they were divided, voting 3-2 to recommend two options with five districts, and the role of mayor rotating (Apple and 501). That 3-2 vote was echoed in an Aug. 2 City Council discussion, with appointees expressing the same views as their appointing councilmembers. Councilmembers Maria Corralejo, Ben Jimenez Jr. and Alejandro Chavez favored the five-district map, saying it would bring more equity. “The mayor is a title,” Councilmember Jimenez said. Meanwhile, Mayor Anna Velazquez and Councilmember Fernando Cabrera supported a four-district map. During the Aug. 2 meeting, most public speakers favored having the four-district model and keeping the mayor’s seat at large. “Having five districts eliminates the ability for the community to elect the mayor, which does not fall under equitable guidelines,” Lupita Arroyo said. The only resident to speak in support of the five-district maps was Frank Corralejo, Councilmember Corralejo’s husband. City Council’s political dynamics run barely under the surface. One of the five-district maps on the table, 501, was drawn by Fred Ledesma, Soledad’s former mayor of 10 years, who was unseated in 2020 by Velazquez with a 15-percent margin. 501 puts Velazquez and Cabrera, her political ally, in the same district—if that map is chosen, Velazquez wouldn’t be able to run for two years since Cabrera’s term ends in 2026. “They want to get rid of one of us so that they can make decisions on their own,” Cabrera says. On Sept. 6, Soledad City Council is scheduled to select a map—either Tan, with four districts and an at-large mayor, or 501, with five districts—and determine the sequence of when seats will be up for election. Power Play Factions in Soledad City Council clash over district election maps. By Celia Jiménez Soledad Mayor Anna Velazquez supports keeping the mayor as an at-large position, or asking voters what they prefer. “Let’s take it back out to the voters and let them choose the way,” she says.

18 MONTEREY COUNTY WEEKLY AUGUST 10-16, 2023 www.montereycountyweekly.com CRISIS MODE Thanks so much for your article regarding Measure Z (“State Supreme Court sides with lower courts on Measure Z, limiting local jurisdictions in regulating oil and gas development,” posted Aug. 3). I think it will help people in our region understand what was at stake and the challenges ahead. It is really now time for the people in this region and around the nation and world to demand much more action by those who represent them. I think that those representing this region in the State Legislature should be called upon to restore local power over these issues by passing new legislation that replaces the archaic outdated understanding of the need to regulate oil production from the early 1960s. Andy Hsia-Coron | Aromas Note: Hsia-Coron serves on the board of Protect Monterey County, which authored Measure Z. Very sad news. I share your views on our climate situation, but well reported. Concise while retaining the big picture. Thank you for the article, I did not know this was going on. Berj Amir | Seaside SHOWING UP I wanted to thank you for your article and for encouraging the community to get involved (“Monterey hosts an open house to gather public input on the city’s housing plan,” posted Aug. 7). I got off my chair and got to the meeting. Talked to a few folks and really appreciated getting out and becoming more involved. This is an issue that I care deeply about. I’m a landscaper and I have guys that can’t afford to live anywhere near here. It’s gotten so out of control, and it’s just got to get fixed. Crystal Digman | via email COST OF DOING BUSINESS While the problem presented in this article is an obvious lack of transparency between government costs and the taxpayer, that is only the beginning (“Carmel refuses to release a report detailing its former police chief’s short tenure,” Aug. 3-9). Private sector job salaries cannot keep pace with the high cost of public employee salary, health and pension costs. The disparity is too wide. Monterey County is the number-one employer. Every single dollar spent comes from the taxpayer in some form or another. The public employee unions are no help! No one sits at the bargaining table, representing the taxpayer. This needs to change. Kelsey Sayer | Monterey ROUND AND ROUNDABOUT I think roundabouts are a great idea (“A project to improve Highway 68 traffic flow is moving along,” July 27-Aug. 2). As a regular traveler of this roadway, it seems to me the lights are the major holdup, and roundabouts should let traffic continue to move while letting side traffic enter as needed, but I’ll look forward to seeing what the experts come up with. Derek Dean | Monterey It would be good to know why widening the highway to four lanes has been shelved. It seems it wouldn’t take much to do so, since they will already be widening it at intersections. The idea that this radically changes the highway’s impact on the environment seems overblown. I can’t imagine options that are worse for the environment than miles-long lines of cars sitting motionless with their engines running. John Thomas | Salinas I think something that would be worse would be miles-long lines of cars sitting motionless with their engines running in four lanes rather than two. Better infrastructure leads to more development, which leads to more traffic. James Salare | Seaside The idea of doing nothing and keeping it a traffic mess so we keep more people from moving into Monterey County has been the prevailing reason given for doing nothing. It is a bad idea. Why not go back to Highway 1 as a two-lane highway through Monterey like it used to be, when I was a kid; that would really snarl traffic to make Monterey Peninsula undesirable. The solution is to make it four lanes and install automatic toll readers for single-occupancy vehicles during peak-travel times to reduce overall traffic. Overall, we should also plan to put in a light-rail from Salinas to Monterey, and get people out of their cars and into public transit if they are commuting to jobs, like many cities do. Walter Wagner | via web VOICES FROM THE PAST Your synopsis and Robert Louis Stevenson’s writing should be a mustread for everyone who lives in or visits the Monterey area (“The Monterey Peninsula in 1879 was a region in transition—Californio culture, and land, was giving way to American culture and land sharks,” Aug. 3-9). R.J. Roland | Monterey POLICE POWERS I empathize with our sheriff and Board of Supervisors as they try to balance the budget during uncertain economic times and with a nearly $1 million-per-year compliance order at the jail. They are also considering civilian oversight of the Sheriff’s Department and jail with little case law to guide them ( “The public weighs in to support the creation of a sheriff’s oversight committee,” posted July 28). But instituting a civilian oversight commission and an inspector general could nip problems in the bud before they turn into expensive mega-problems, thus saving money in the long run. Such oversight facilitates communication and trust between law enforcement and the community. For example, we have heard there may have been between one and six deaths at the county jail this year, leaving us to wonder about the real number, and if they were suicides, people on hospice, the consequences of neglect, or crimes. An oversight commission and inspector general would be able to track and report this kind of data so we can understand the nuances and support protocols that are crafted to address such matters, based on clear, valid information. A win-win for all. Sharon Miller | Pacific Grove LETTERS • COMMENTSOPINION Submit letters to the editor to letters@mcweekly.com.

www.montereycountyweekly.com AUGUST 10-16, 2023 MONTEREY COUNTY WEEKLY 19 There are a lot of people in Pacific Grove who love their hometown and yet are dismayed by the City Council’s agreement on July 26 to pay $438,000 plus six months of insurance premiums to separate from the former city manager, Ben Harvey. I know this because I’m one of them, and I’ve been talking to my neighbors. It seems worth reminding the City Council: That is our money. Members of this council fancy themselves as fiscal conservatives and dedicated conservators of the public trust, but to be so cavalier with taxpayer funds is both dumbfounding and hypocritical. At a council meeting on Wednesday, Aug. 2, Councilmember Luke Coletti— the leader of the anti-Harvey faction that just spent $438,000 of the city’s dollars to make Harvey disappear—seemed determined to prove that point. As the council deliberated about a three-year, $2.6 million general plan update, he looked to whittle away the $110,000 earmarked for a climate action plan and $80,000 for an economic development component. He did not mention the two years’ worth of city manager salary that the council had just signed away. I get it; some members of the City Council don’t like Ben Harvey. That’s life, but paying nearly half-a-million dollars to have someone go away is not just bad policy, it’s foolhardy. Many people in town like the initiatives of the former city manager. They like the idea of economic development—a lively downtown and two hotels to generate revenue to fund parks, coastal protections, cops, firefighters, youth center staff. They like the idea of diversity, equity and inclusion being elevated in city policy. They think cannabis sales in town and a skate park would each enhance quality of life for residents. Far from seeing those as fireable offenses, they see those policies as progress. That is what makes this separation so mind-boggling. The current council majority has repeatedly stymied and stonewalled many of those initiatives: reversing a previous council’s vote to permit a cannabis dispensary, derailing a proposed skatepark and slow-walking the hotels through public hearings. Harvey’s contract was renewed in July of 2021 by a 6-1 vote. (He was originally hired in 2016 from a field of 60 candidates.) While he is not loved by all, he was a competent administrator. The trains ran on time, as they say. Contracts with five bargaining units were approved, the coastal Recreation Trail got redeveloped, the library got renovated, streets got resurfaced. At the same time, the city’s coffers got filled up, to the tune of $11 million now in reserves. All that while Harvey steered the community through the public health emergency of the Covid pandemic. Not everything he did was successful—plans for one hotel concept fell apart, and missteps potentially cost the city $100,000, according to an investigation by the grand jury. His initial proposal for a pedestrian-only restaurant zone downtown got replaced with a better, city-wide parklet program. But if the City Council had cause to fire Harvey—or if they had enough votes—they could have simply terminated him. The $438,000-plus they just squandered could have funded a lot of good work in Pacific Grove. It’s an outrageous waste of public funds. I’m skeptical that the council has fully considered the consequences of their actions, both within the city and in the broader city manager candidate pool. This council will now be correctly identified to prospective applicants as a meddling, bullying and micromanaging body. There are three sustained claims of workplace harassment by Coletti toward Ben Harvey that have never been publicly remedied. (Coletti told me he didn’t want to discuss any of this.) The City Council appointed Coletti to serve on a three-person subcommittee responsible for hiring a new city manager. That will impact the candidates interested in the job. Who would want to work for bosses like these? Good city managers have choices. So I suspect they’ll get applicants who have few other options, or those who recognize the perils of the job and will demand to be overpaid. Within Pacific Grove, the consequences of this decision are even more perilous. This City Council just demonstrated that bad behavior by councilmembers will not only be tolerated, but rewarded.

By Erik Cushman AIR FLOW…Opinions are divided in Squid’s neighborhood about offshore wind energy. Will it harm wildlife and the fishing industry? Or will its benefits save wildlife and fish in the long run? Some people are much clearer in their views. That includes people like Steve Black of Coloradobased ​Steve Black Strategies, Inc. He registered in California as a lobbyist to represent Castle Wind LLC, which envisions a 1,000-megawatt offshore wind farm. In his work for Castle Wind, Black met Dawn Addis, who ran twice for the California State Assembly, and in 2022, won a seat representing District 30. Back in 2019, Black made a campaign contribution of $250 to Addis’ first (unsuccessful) bid for state office. The problem: There’s a hard ban in California on lobbyists donating to political campaigns. The California Fair Political Practices Commission started an investigation back in 2020, and found that both parties claimed they didn’t realize this was a no-no. “Neither I nor the candidate who solicited the contribution was aware of the ban. I regret the error,” Black wrote to the FPPC. Addis told FPPC officials she was similarly unaware. Once the FPPC started asking, she returned the cash. All of this is mostly water under the bridge (err, turbine?) at this point, three years later. The FPPC proposes a $2,500 penalty that commissioners are set to vote on when they meet on Aug. 17. Think of it as a fee for learning a basic rule. Squid hopes they’ve learned it. PITY THAT…Squid is no Swiftie, but Squid’s tween octopus neighbor is a Taylor Swift devotee, so a lot of Swift’s greatest hits have been playing lately, including “Cruel Summer,” which includes, “Killing me slow, out the window, I’m always waiting for you to be waiting below.” It reminds Squid of the situation billionaire developer Patrice Pastor of Monaco is in, waiting a few cruel summers in Carmel, hoping Carmelites will finally catch on to his proposal to rid the city of a lot known as “The Pit,” replacing it with a 22,400-squarefoot, mixed-use building named Ulrika Plaza. His design plans have been rejected multiple times by the Carmel Planning Commission since 2021. The giant hole in the ground where a former developer began a project then ran out of funding was snatched up by Pastor for $9 million in 2020. He set about creating his own plans, only no one liked his design aesthetic—in 2021 one former planning commissioner referred to one version as “ticky tacky.” Pastor was back before the commission on Aug. 9 (after the Weekly’s deadline) with new plans that, in Squid’s estimation, look better than earlier ones. Perhaps commissioners will be enchanted, or Pastor will face another cruel summer. If he does, Squid hopes Pastor will be able to shake it off.
