PHOTO-ESSAY. The above Proposed Restrooms will be hit by waves with the King High Tides. Add storm and swell and wind, and the Jetty waves hit the space where the bathrooms are proposed.

The 3 yellow circles 2, 3, 4 were the sites proposed and commented on at HMB Planning Commission last January. They were not well received then for the reasons noted below.
For this week’s meeting, what is now called the preferred alternative places the restroom in the day-use lot close to the entrance, away from the waves, but uses up 15 parking spaces.
This photo was taken earlier this year, 2019, during the storms.
Here is a link to the contract between the Harbor District and Keet Neerhan, and a letter from KN Properties, in response.

Many think the existing bathroom has a washer and dryer. Photo above was taken when Leonard Woren (Granada Sanitary District) was meeting with Keet Neerhan and Jim Tucker about view blocking trees.
Upon investigation by Half Moon Bay City Manager, Bob Nisbet, there is actually a working bathroom there.
However, Lisa Ketcham, who used to be on the Mid-Coast Community Council for many years, says the bathroom is so old that you would practically have to start over.
