What if your office water cooler delivered clean fresh water each day and you weren't connected to the local water purveyor, nor having it delivered in unwieldy jugs? What if you could just draw the water out of the air and not be concerned with extreme drought conditions? It's possible, with an atmospheric water generator. And at their Monday, Aug. 18 meeting, the Water Management District even said it's OK, becoming the first water district in California to approve the devices as alternative primary water sources. And it's the first new water source outside of California American Water to be granted a permit by the MPWMD. But there are reservations on the approval. The devices can only be approved for commercial use, and only as a primary source if completely disconnected from Cal-Am. And that's one reason why it can't currently be approved for residential use except as a secondary source for studios, for example. The health department will not allow disconnection from Cal-Am until complete reliability of the devices is proven. According to John Ramirez of the Monterey County Health Dept., the depart- ment has concerns about drinking water quality standards being met by the ma- chines. This is the main reason they have not been approved as stand-alone sources for residential consumers. They are not currently approved for restaurant consumer use either, for example. The department will be looking into what other counties are doing statewide and formulating a policy. “We'll have to look at each manufacturer and each model,” said Ramirez. But the health department has no concerns if the water is to be used for outside watering, flushing toilets or other non-consumable uses. From as simple as a homemade “fog catcher” consisting of a sheet of black plastic which drips into an old coffee can through homemade devices such as the one described at http://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-Atmospheric-Water-Generator/ to the EcoloBlue model demonstrated at the Water District meeting, atmospheric water generators appear to be the wave of the future. All atmospheric water generators operate in a manner very similar to that of a dehumidifier: air flows over a cooled coil, which causes condensation.The conden- sation is captured and filtered for human consumption. The rate of water production depends on the ambient temperature, humidity, the volume of air passing over the coil, and the machine's capacity to cool the coil. They are manufactured with various capacities, the smallest demonstrated to the District's investigators being an eight gallon per day EcoloBlue unit which is similar in size to an office water cooler. They're also the wave of the past: They have actually been in common use for decades. Other countries, notably Israel, have been using them for as small as one- person purposes. But they're not cheap. The smallest model manufactured by EcoloBlue will deliver 8 gallons per day but has a cost per acre-foot per year (AFY) of $145,000, Where in Pacific Grove...? according to the report of the Water Demand Committee of the water district.

(831) 624-3549 The seals started reappearing here in 1967 and in 1998 started giving birth on LoveTheDentist.com a Hopkins Marine Station beach along- side the Recreation Trail. The beach and the trail are separated by a chain link fence that protects the Hopkins campus and its resources. PACIFIC GROVE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE Some of the pregnant seals ven- tured westward to a pocket beach at the bottom of 5th Street in 2006 to give birth and the city put temporary fencing around the area to protect the pups and nursing moms. There have been births there every year since, usually in April and May. The city installed temporary fencing to protect them for seven years, the fence getting ever longer as the seal pupping spread. But in 2013 the city installed redwood railings instead of the more effective mesh fencing. A small group of outspoken residents objected to even that much restriction, arguing that the Coastal Act wouldn’t allow it.

First-Time Buyer Blues: Economy Marge Ann Jameson By Kevin Stone Monterey County Association of Realtors® Cop log Many prospective buyers of the least expensive homes in the U.S. are facing a variety of challenges that are difficult to overcome on the path to homeownership. online at www.cedarstreettimes.com Such obstacles, combined with the expectation of having to offer more cash up front, threaten to derail the younger generation from entering the housing market, according to Susan Wachter, a professor of real estate and finance at the University of Pennsyl- Pacific Grove Police Celebrate Anniversary vania’s Wharton School. She stated, “If higher down payments persist, we will have a millennial generation that’s missing in action in homeownership.” In addition to stagnant wages, growing student debt, and competition from inves- tors, those looking to purchase moderately priced houses must also provide more cash up front. The median down payment for the cheapest 25 percent of properties sold in 2013 was $9,480, compared with $6,037 in 2007. The higher bar is a symptom of still-tight credit that is crowding out first-time buyers even as interest rates remain near historical lows. Younger adults, who would normally be making initial forays into real estate, are among those most affected. The median down payment for the cheapest 25 percent of homes was 7.5 percent of the sales price last year, up from a low of 3.1 percent in 2006 and compared with an average 4.2 percent from 2001 through 2007. One of the main reasons for the jump is that fewer first-time buyers are applying for loans backed by the Federal Housing Administration, which require smaller down payments, after the government agency boosted mortgage-insurance premiums. Some of those borrowers may be going to private lenders that demand bigger down payments instead. In 2013, 39 percent of first-time buyers used FHA loans, which gen- erally require 3.5 percent down, compared with 56 percent in 2010. First-time purchasers accounted for 28 percent of all sales of previously owned homes in June, compared with about 40 percent historically. A dearth of first-time buy- ers is pushing down the national homeownership rate, which fell in the second quarter to its lowest level since 1995.

They are all over the streets, strutting along the sidewalks with their charges (dogs don’t have masters, dogs own their people, society simply hasn’t recognized this). They prance and dance or walk sedately, pulling their friends into stores that offer “treats.” They volunteer at Animal Friends Rescue Project Treasure Shop, and greet customers with enthusiasm. They accompany their people to places of business and cozy up to customers or clients. They meet their friends at Rip Van Winkle Open Space where they can romp off leash. They are seen on Asi- lomar State Beach and Recreational Trail, walking with decorum on leash. They sit in the patios of dog friendly restaurants. There are, naturally naysayers, those who do not like canines and accuse them of barking, biting, leaving “poop,” and, oh no, smelling and slobbering. Of the final charge they can be guilty, but so can many humans who complain about dogs. Dogs are our best friends, they forgive us our trespasses, even those against them (Bill Sikes was adored by Bull’s Eye who was beaten regularly), We provide them with food, comfort on their own beds (or ours), medical attention and most of all love, hopefully as unconditional as theirs for us.

It’s not too late, just contact Jane Durant Jones at Alas for the army of vendors, the hoped-for army of Monterey area shoppers did [email protected] or Jane Roland at [email protected] and visit not materialize. Several theories were advanced for this, the principal one being the the web site at www.fiestadelperro.com sale’s unfortunate debut on the last day of “car week.” The out-of-town dealers, some of whom had driven five or six hours to get to Monterey by dawn, were perplexed. “Where is everybody?” one asked. “At Alameda and the Rose Bowl, the pickers are already there at 5 a.m., shopping by flashlight.” “Well, this is the last day of the Concours d’Elegance,” I explained, “the classic car show out at Pebble Beach?” “So the Monterey antique hunters are all there?” “Not necessarily. Car Week generates epic, bumper-to-bumper traffic jams every year, so a lot of locals stay home. Others vacate the area entirely. That might have dampened your turnout.” The fearless souls who did hazard the drive to MPC between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m. Sunday found beautiful weather, 90 eager merchants, and the aforementioned plethora of antique and vintage goods. A coffee vendor and a food truck were also on hand. I wanted to get to church after helping my friend set up, so I left as the first shop- pers strolled through. I returned in the afternoon for the breakdown. “How did you do?” I asked. “I sold one of the tables.” “The heavy one?” I asked hopefully. “No, the other one. But that’s still one less table to bring back.” All around us, other vendors were disassembling their stalls, tents and booths and packing up whatever merchandise hadn’t sold. They worked with dispatch and efficiency, like roadies breaking down a rock show or carneys moving a circus to the next town. As a very amateur antiques transporter, I was awed by the ingenious packing, load- ing and stowage systems the seasoned vendors had perfected. In what seemed jig time, counters full of jewelry, racks of clothing, rooms full of furniture, walls of paintings and tables of military paraphernalia vanished neatly into vehicles that seemed far too small to contain them all. Then they all drove back home to prep for Alameda and the Rose Bowl. August 15, 2014 • CEDAR STREET Times • Page 11 Point Pinos Lighthouse Gift Shop Now Open The Heritage Society of Pacific Grove is pleased to announce the open- ing of the new Point Pinos Lighthouse gift shop. The City of Pacific Grove and the Heritage Society several years ago en- tered into an agreement where the Soci- ety would begin the restoration and pres- ervation of the lighthouse. One of the projects was to replicate two outbuild- ings that existed on the property during the property’s many iterations. The result of years of work and planning came to fruition on July 5 when the second of the two buildings opened, housing a 165 sq. ft. gift shop. Both the City and the Society agreed that an ongoing source of revenues needed to be brought into the business plan in order to assure adequate funding to maintain the property and continue the restoration and preservation project. The gift shop will, hopefully, assure those goals. All the merchandise sale proceeds go back into the lighthouse restoration fund maintained by the Soci- ety. Because all the attendants in the gift shop are volunteers, as are the docents in the lighthouse main building, they are able to control overhead. Although the structures are ‘rep- licas’ of past outbuildings, certain alterations became necessary to stay in The original lighthouse had outbuildings, though they were smaller than the new outbuildings, one of which houses the compliance with current building codes. gift shop. The new replicas had to meet modern buildings codes. Photo courtesy Pat Hathaway. The buildings are actually 3 ft. longer and one foot wider than the originals. This change was necessary to accom- modate the (also) new ADA compliant restroom facility. The new gift shop is selling mer- chandise that is “lighthouse-centric,” concentrating on our local historic structure. Hats, T-shirts, magnets, pins, and lighthouse models are displayed alongside some local artist’s consigned artwork. The shop is open the same hours as the lighthouse: Every day from 1 to 4pm EXCEPT that they are closed Tuesday and Wednesday. “Come out and visit and don’t forget us during the holiday season. Some unique gifts will brighten someone’s holiday,” said Den- nis Tarmina, Lighthouse volunteer and spearhead of the restoration. “We are looking for committed volunteers,” he continued. Volunteering at the gift shop requires only a commit- ment of one to two 4 hour days each month. “We try to arrange your volun- teer time to accommodate your personal schedule.” To volunteer email Dennis at den- [email protected] or Nina at gran- [email protected].
