General Issues – Pacific Grove
Monterey Peninsula’s Pacific Grove faces a variety of land use planning from residential and commercial development to water availability. LandWatch remains engaged in this geography.
Affordable Housing
- City Grants Water Rights to Affordable Projects
The Pacific Grove City Council voted to grant 11.5 acre feet of water to low income units. That’s enough for 115 units. The vote also allowed for a 30% discount on water prices since this effort aligns with the City’s affordable housing goals. (05.16.19)
