RESTAURANTS THAT got permits to set up tables on sidewalks and in parking spaces can now serve alcohol, the city council decided Tuesday, but they have to comply with several new rules, and a group of city officials walked through town the following afternoon to give feedback to restaurants about the changes they need to make. “I want to praise the restaurateurs who stepped up and did a very handsome job and invested some money,” in their seating areas, especially those in parking spaces, said city administrator Chip Rerig, who started allowing outdoor dining in public areas a few weeks ago under the authority given to him by the city’s declaration of a health emergency due to the coronavirus pandemic. “And I want to gently admonish the folks who brought their house- PHOTOS/MICHAEL TROUTMAN, DMT IMAGING plants and put them in the street as a valid barrier to protect The flaming skeleton of a tree (left) is one of the remnants of Wednesday’s Ridge Fire, burned more than 80 acres in Big Sur.

DEALING WITH the coronavirus epidemic in Mon- terey County hasn’t been cheap, and officials this week outlined how much it’s expected to cost taxpayers over the next several months, including more than $2 million on just one hotel in Marina that houses people quarantined for having the virus or being exposed to it. On Tuesday, 5th District Monterey County Supervi- sor Mary Adams asked county staffer Shawne Ellerbee to “guesstimate” the costs of the virus, which has killed a dozen people here. “Looking at what we have incurred to date and what we are projecting, we are looking at $11.6 million,” said Ellerbee, deputy director of administrative services for the county’s resource management agency. Ellerbee didn’t break down the figure. Earlier in her presentation, though, she said the county believes that set- ting up and running alternative housing sites at the Mon- terey Fairgrounds, King City, Marina, Salinas and other areas from April through September will amount to $4.5 million. “I think that’s optimistic, assuming this event doesn’t extend beyond September,” Ellerbee said of the dollar amount.

Different neighborhoods The current version of the proposed ordinance would limit vacation rentals in Big Sur to no more than 20 times each year, for a total of not more than 140 days during any 12-month period. Also, the property would have to be occupied by the owner or a “principal tenant,” defined as a person who lives at the property at least 275 days during the year. No more than four people would be allowed to occupy a rental at a time. Operators, meanwhile, would need a permit the county says wouldn’t have too many strings attached and would cost in the hundreds of dollars. In Carmel Highlands, most short-term rentals would be subject to the same limitations as Big Sur. In other parts of unincorporated Carmel and in Carm- el Valley, the same would apply, although in most cases, owners of short-term rentals would have the option of ap- plying for an additional permit that would let them exceed the limitations on how often their homes are rented and how many people occupy them.

The face mask confusion

AS WE have pointed out in previous editorials, much of the govern- ment’s reaction to the coronavirus epidemic has been impromptu, which is to say it’s been made up on the fly — an understandable approach, really, because the virus is so new. Still, it’s important to remember that whenever anybody claims to be “following the data and the science,” they can’t be telling the truth because there is still no more than a pittance of data about the coronavirus, and without data and testing, “science” is really just sup- position. To see how true this is, just consider how the explanations for the trans- mission of the virus from person to person have shifted as the weeks have gone by. Initially, we were told it was picked up from surfaces, which made washing your hands and avoiding touching your eyes and nose the most important things you could do to protect yourself, and that wearing a mask would do little or no good. But now we’re told transmission mainly happens through the air and that wearing a mask should be mandatory — which it has been in Monterey County since April 28. And as of Thursday, masks are required statewide.

But even the county’s fairly strict rule has plenty of exceptions — you “This’ll do it!” don’t have to wear one, for example, while walking, running or bicycling became serum neutralizing antibody pos- on your own.
