Woman swept away by rising tide amid hazardous Central Coast conditions

The search for a 24-year-old woman believed to have been swept into the ocean during rising tide in Santa Cruz County has been suspended, underscoring how quickly conditions can become dangerous along the Central Coast. Coast Guard officials suspended the search for 24-year-old Se Nah Park, who was swept into the ocean during high tide in Santa Cruz County, on Monday, the agency announced Tuesday, Nov. 10. Monterey County is among areas on the California coast contending with higher tides and stronger surf this season as dangerous surf, powerful rip currents and sneaker waves create hazardous conditions and increase the risk of flooding . The National Weather Service this week issued beach hazard statements for several coastal regions, including beaches along the Central Coast, San Francisco Bay Area and Southern California. A coastal flood advisory remains in effect for Monterey County and the Big Sur coast through at least Nov. 13. Officials warn that high tides could flood low-lying areas, cause isolated road closures and coastal erosion, and push water farther up beaches, potentially trapping visitors in coastal areas.

New Marina Kai Apartments to offer lifeline for 23 people

A new Marina development will provide permanent housing and mental health support for 23 Monterey County residents. But with roughly 500 people already waiting for similar housing, the new units will meet only a fraction of the demand. Beneath a brilliant blue sky and surrounded by a growing neighborhood of model homes, officials gathered Nov. 10 to break ground on Marina Kai Apartments, a permanent supportive housing development for low-income adults with serious mental illness who are homeless or at risk of homelessness in Monterey County. "In our field we know that housing and mental health are deeply connected," said Fabricio Chombo, assistant bureau chief with the Monterey County Behavioral Health Bureau, during the ceremony. "It's difficult to focus on recovery, maintain your health, or plan for the future when you are uncertain about where you'll be sleeping at night." More: Salinas bucks Monterey County trend with rise in homelessness The three-story development will contain 23 studio apartments for residents and a separate apartment for an on-site manager, along with laundry facilities, offices and meeting areas where supportive services can be provided. The approximately $17.6 million project replaces a two-story building containing four apartments that was demolished this year on

A new composting project at ReGen Monterey aims to reduce odors and emissions.

For years, fall brings a familiar kind of smell in Marina. Sometimes it’s the essence of a hot, starchy vegetable wafting through the neighborhoods, sometimes it’s a water holding pond that turned septic. Over the years, Marina Mayor Bruce Delgado and County Supervisor Wendy Root Askew have hosted multiple town hall meetings to discuss the issue, which trends during fall and winter as wind patterns and temperatures trap the smells closer to the ground.
