B-Man Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 THE STATE KNOWS BEST ! THIS IS WHY CALIFORNIA CAN’T HAVE NICE THINGS: “The members of the Wall family never imagined their attempt to build a pool and spa at their isolated home in Hollister Ranch, California, would end them up in court. But as many Pacific Legal Foundation clients have discovered, the California Coastal Commission (CCC) has a long history of giving landowners no other option… Last year, the Walls applied for a permit to build a swimming pool on their property for their large family and grandchildren to enjoy. The county approved the request, but before they could begin construction, the CCC overruled the permit. The reason? The CCC refused to issue a permit until the Walls granted public access to Hollister Ranch beaches. Here’s the problem: The Walls’ property is nearly a mile from the shoreline, and they have no ability to donate any land along the coast. But the CCC appears to be making an example of the Walls. The agency has a long-running property rights dispute with Hollister Ranch about public access to the coast. In an act of pettiness, the CCC is punishing the Walls to send a message to the rest of the Ranch owners: submit to public beach access or get no permits at all.” (Via Shoshana Weissmann.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In an act of pettiness, the CCC is punishing the Walls to send a message to the rest of the Ranch owners: submit to public beach access or get no permits at all.” (Via Shoshana Weissmann.) Had to do a little digging to make this clear what's happening: The Hollister Ranch is a large concern (and a working cattle ranch), with parcels of it owned by private parties. The Walls own a parcel, on which they built a residence. They do not own a beach-front or beach-access parcel; all of that is owned by the Ranch itself. The Walls are physically unable, because of geography, to provide public beach access. The CCC has been fighting with the Ranch over beach access for a while. The CCC is trying to either punish the Walls for the intransigence of a third-party (the Hollister Ranch), or use the Walls as leverage against an intransigent third party. Either way, it's complete ***** bull####. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 THAT WOULD BE NICE: Why California May Go Nuclear. Last week, a California state legislator introduced an amendment to the state’s constitution that would classify nuclear energy as “renewable.” If the amendment passes, it would likely result in the continued operation of the state’s last nuclear plant, Diablo Canyon, well past 2025, its current closure date. Diablo generates 9% of California’s electricity and 20% of its clean, carbon-free electricity. It is also the most spectacular nuclear plant in the world, made famous by an employee’s photo of a humpback whale breaching in front of the plant. “I’m not going to argue it’s not a long shot,” said the legislation’s sponsor, Assemblymember Jordan Cunningham. “But we can’t make a serious dent in slowing the warming trend in the world without investment in nuclear power.” Whatever justification he needs, doesn’t change the fact the nuclear is good. IT’S WHO THEY ARE. IT’S WHAT THEY DO: Hollywood Can’t Stop ‘Othering’ Red State USA.
