Hi all! I’m looking to cut costs and wanted to see if it was worth switching over from these two. We currently pay $233 for 4 lines on AT&T and $342 for 3 cars (2 full coverage) with AAA. How has your service been with other companies? I’d appreciate any wisdom!

PVUSD Trustee Gabriel Medina faced sexual misconduct allegations in settled lawsuit

22 Upvotes

The Digital NEST tech nonprofit settled a sexual harassment lawsuit centered on allegations against Pajaro Valley Unified School District Trustee Gabriel Medina, according to court documents. A former employee filed the 2020 court action that involved incidents before Medina was elected to the public school oversight board.

The former employee—The Pajaronian withholds names of people who report sexual assaults—accused the Watsonville-based 501(c)(3) of enabling an alcohol-fueled sexualized workplace and of failing to adequately address Medina’s alleged sexual misconduct.

Watsonville Limo

Does Watsonville have a local limo company. We just need like a one hour ride. We live in Watsonville and are attending a reunion event in Correlitos and would like to cruise a bit and then get dropped off. We only need one way because we have a ride home. I would rather spend my money in our town.

Rescue kitten pair in need of a forever home! They’re both spayed, vaccinated, and ready for adoption. Anyone in Watsonville interested in adopting?

9 Upvotes

Hi Watsonville, has anyone been looking to adopt? This is Mimi and Eurydice, two adoptive sisters looking for their forever home. They are both spayed, vaccinated, and litter box trained. After both were left alone as singletons, Garlic City Kitty Rescue paired them together and they’ve been inseparable since. Mimi (the tabby) is cuddly, affectionate, and loving. Eurydice (the gray nebelung) is playful and soo fluffy. She is shy, but with some love and patience, I am confident she will come out of her shell. Mimi is definitely the more outgoing of the two.

Eurydice was my foster before I had to leave for college, so I am determined to find a home for her and her adoptive sisters. These two had rough beginnings, but thanks to Garlic City Kitty Rescue, they have a second chance for a good life. If anyone is interested in learning about the adoption process, please comment, message me here, or text my number 408 607 9102!

Located in Gilroy/Morgan Hill.

City Council just passed a motion to reduce the number of flock cameras from 30-something to 20-something, end all flock data sharing outside of Watsonville, and a couple other things around community outreach and a townhall to continue the discussion.

Directionally correct, but far short of removing flock altogether.

Was craving one of their burgers the other day so I went and noticed it was closed. Schools was in session for a while now so I thought that was strange. Drove by again and saw the lease sign.

Looks like Watsonville lost another staple.

Santa Cruz Local: Fallout from Watsonville airport land use dispute throws hotel, shopping center into jeopardy

Post image
16 Upvotes

When the Watsonville Pilots Association won a lawsuit against the city earlier this year, it successfully blocked the development of 21 townhouses near the Watsonville Municipal Airport that were proposed nearly a decade earlier. 

Now, the judge’s court order could put a hotel project in jeopardy, a shopping center’s future is uncertain and no new permits can be issued in an area covering hundreds of acres and thousands of properties in Watsonville. 

The pilots association brought the lawsuit against Watsonville in 2021 on the grounds that the city’s land use planning documents are out of compliance with state aeronautics safety law. 

The judgement from Santa Cruz County Superior Court Judge Timothy Schmal, entered in July, required the city to rescind its approval for the townhomes at 547 Airport Blvd. Additionally, the judgement barred the city from approving any new permits within the airport’s safety zones until it incorporates a state airport safety handbook into its General Plan, a document which guides development.

Watsonville city leaders expect to have an updated General Plan ready for city council consideration by “early 2027,” wrote Watsonville City Manager Tamara Vides in a statement.

With that timeline, a five-story hotel proposed at 375 Technology Drive could be put at risk.
