PODCAST. Every Friday Michelle Dragony, the Chief Buzz Officer of Coastside Buzz, sits down with KPDO (& KZSG’s) Catherine Peery to review the Weekly Buzz Mail.
Cruzio got a $5.65M grant for their “Summits to the Sea” proposal. I met with them and they are looking to spend money on the Coastside making internet better. I wanted to make sure public agencies have the opportunity to Cruz. Plus, it’d be nice if Main Street has speedy internet for businesses and the Pumpkin Festival.
The San Mateo County Supervisors hired StarChase for a high speed police pursuit management system to minimize risks and maximize apprehensions. That and ALRP cameras will give sheriffs more tools to get the bad guys. Robocop next?
San Mateo County Harbor District was awarded $3M for the “Surfers Beach Pilot Restoration Project” including the dredging of Pillar Point Harbor by the Ocean Protections Council. The Harbor District will put up $4.7M but costs won’t really be known until Requests for Proposals go out.
There’s a Humpback Whale in Pillar Point Harbor chomping on the anchovies. Paddlers please stay 100 yards away and boats need to go slow. I’ve been surprised how many paddlers have ignored these rules. Listen to NOAA, the Marine Mammal Center and coastal local Sue Pemberton on Nextdoor (she is California Academy of Sciences).
Half Moon Bay’s Purisima Creek Redwoods preserve parking and trailhead have reopened!! Go out and have fun.
The Coastside Buzz Calendar has lots of events to check out AND peruse the Coastviews Music and Entertainment Guide which has all the music from Pescadero to Pacifica and in-between, every week all in one place.
This week on the Buzz calendar look out for
- The Barn Sale, a big annual event in Pescadero, takes place on September 14th in the new Pescadero community space (new name still to be determined). A few nonprofits will be on hand, including KPDO with an open house, and Sc4ARC with an Emergency Communications Station up. The Ham club will be taking signups for CERT, and Ham Radio classes. KPDO will be providing water and coffee for donations, and other groups will have food booths, so this will be a busy place from 9 to 4 on Saturday Sept. 14th.
