After the Soberanes Fire started July 22, the SPCA took in 232 pets whose owners had to flee their homes because of the blaze, which now has moved away from most of the residential areas it once threatened but is still only 55 percent contained and has burned more than 107,000 acres.

Only Teresa the tarantu- la, a gecko and king snake remain, according to spokeswoman Beth Brookhouser. One pet owner who benefited from the SPCA’s help was Julie Quevedo, who, with her husband and 5-year-old son, had to evac- uate their Cachagua home. The SPCA took their two dogs and turtle for 10 days, which Quevedo said reduced some of the stress, since she knew her pets would be safe. “The SPCA was so helpful. I didn’t have any alternative housing options that would include the animals,” she told The Pine Cone. “The turtle was a huge issue because I wasn’t able to take his tank when I evacuat- ed, and had no habitat for him at all.” Caring for the animals has not been inex- pensive, Brookhouser said Tuesday. “Just to shelter and care for the evacuated rolex oyster and perpetual pets has, so far, cost $66,892,” she said. are ® trademarks. “This does not include our rescue teams in the field evacuating animals from the fire areas, caring for pets and distributing life- 4 A The Carmel Pine Cone September 16, 2016

the section of the lease cited by Balesteri is not applicable and would only “apply in circumstances where the city pre- maturely terminates a lease for a public purpose during the lease term.” Instead, another clause in the lease, “states that upon expiration of the lease, expressly including any holding over, the lessee has a right to remove any and all improve- ments, including fixtures, within 90 days.” Facing eviction, on Aug. 17 Balesteri applied for a permit to demolish the structure, something he says the lease entitles him to do. While the city approved the permit, officials also said the building had to be razed by Nov. 30, which he said is “unreasonable, not based in law and will cause an undue hardship.” Davi said that the city is not considering giving Balesteri more time to demolish the building. “The city’s primary focus is to regain possession of the premises on the wharf, and it has taken legal steps to attain that goal,” she said. “The city denies liability in the lawsuit brought by Mr. Balesteri, and it will defend and respond to the complaint accordingly.” Balesteri, according his complaint, has been a “bedrock of the Fisherman’s Wharf community and has committed his blood and sweat to ensuring the wharf is a thriving and vital part of Monterey’s business and tourist community.”

THIS WEEK’S Pine Cone has a ton of interesting news in it, including two stories that involve somebody named “Eastwood.” The first, of course, is our front-page story about the Hollywood superstar and his brush with death when a military plane he was riding in crashed into the Pacific Ocean off Pt. Reyes — and the role the harrowing experience, which happened when he was just 21 years old, played in Clint Eastwood’s new movie, “Sully.” Everybody’s going to want to read that story. But there’s another news item which is almost as interesting — one involving Maggie Eastwood and a lawsuit filed against her by two people who worked for her for just a few days before being let go, and then deciding they’d been fired for “religious discrimination.” We’ve covered a lot of absurd lawsuits in The Pine Cone, including abusive ADA claims, a man who demanded millions of dollars from taxpayers because he crashed his motorcycle into a wild pig as it crossed Highway 1, and a teenag- er who blamed Toyota after she was seriously injured when a drunk friend crashed his SUV into a tree. We’ve also used this space to point out that these lawsuits are filed because they frequently succeed, resulting in big-money paydays not only for the plain-

tiffs, but for their lawyers. “Hog’s Breath? Sure, you just go up Dolores past Ocean Avenue, keep going past Sixth Avenue ’til you get to the Carmel Art Association, then you cross the street So widespread has the practice become, the civil courts have actually and head up Pantilles Court ’til you get to Two Sisters Designs, turn left, then right, and when you find yourself underneath Rothe’s mural, you’re there.” devolved into a venue for income redistribution, not justice.
