From report by Sara Rubin, #MontereyCountyNow:
“The project is closing the gap in an 18-mile, Class-1 bike trail that runs from Castroville to Pacific Grove,” City Manager Vibeke Norgaard told the TAMC board on Aug. 31.
It was the first public presentation on a project that has been contemplated since 1982, and now has public grant funds in the pipeline to build the $12 million project.

"Protesters in Salinas join nationwide shutdown against ICE”—Report by Chris Hamilton, #MontereyHerald
“This is the salad bowl of the world. There’s a lot of farmworkers here,” said Victoria Gomez, a lifelong Salinas resident at the city hall protest. “These people that are here, planting and harvesting vegetables and fruits for us and for the rest of the country. I think they at least deserve some respect enough to speak up for them.”

“The hope is for two round trips a day to San Jose, and looping in Amtrak’s Capital Corridor train on top of the existing, once-per-day Coast Starlight.
“'If it all worked well,' Muck says, 'it will be as early as 2028 for that to start.’”

"There's no four-way stop. We're on the corner of the district office, and there's not a school #crosswalk here. There's three hills where people #speed down. We don't have #SpeedBumps. It's just, it's a dangerous intersection.” https://www.ksbw.com/article/pacific-grove-student-injured-scooter-crash/65608797

"The [#LithiumBatteryFire], which is more than 300 miles away from and totally unrelated to the Southern California wildfires, was 'raging out of control Thursday night, sending up huge flames and clouds of hazardous black smoke,' according to local news reports.
"It was reported at the #MossLandingPowerPlant located in northern #MontereyCounty around 3 p.m.
"Evacuations of about 1,500 people were ordered for the area, and the Monterey County Sheriff’s Office called other agencies in the county to help with the emergency.
"The facility, owned by #VistraEnergy, a Texas company, is one of the largest #BatteryStorage plants in the world, The Mercury News reported. It holds tens of thousands of #LithiumBatteries, which are used to store electricity generated from #SolarPower.
"'There’s no way to sugarcoat it. This is a disaster, is what it is,' Monterey County Supervisor Glen Church told KSBW-TV. 'This is extremely disconcerting.'
"The plant is located on the site of a now-shuttered 1950s-era PG&E Moss Landing natural gas plant, which was converted into a BESS facility in 2020. The site can store a total of 750 megawatts of energy, which is sold to PG&E, The Mercury News reported. A separate 182-megawatt battery storage plant that has 256 #Tesla '#Megapack' battery packs is also located on the north side of the site. According to The Mercury News, that facility did not appear to be burning.
"The cause of the fire has not yet been determined, but past reports indicate that this is the third fire at the facility."

@bikeottawa We have stopped biking in high heels (including because we've stopped wearing them :) ) and we've also occasionally yearned for a skirt guard, for safety (when we've forgotten to clip up a skirt that ended up getting caught in spokes or chain). Still, we join you in being fans of biking in nearly any sort of clothing! Wish we were near you, we'd love be part of your in-person fun.
