    I have an acquaintance who owns one of the restaurants there. We’re not too close, as she’s quite busy, but I wish the best for her, her business, and employees.

    Well why isn’t California tearing it all down and making it safe and new for everyone

      It would take a long time to tear it all down. That would probably result in everything that is there shutting down. The sad reality is that place doesnt make enough money. Its iconic though and state money really should go to making it a nice place and keeping the people there in business.

    You need to do what Redondo Beach did. Rebuild the whole thing on concrete and steel and turn it into a premier tourist attraction it’s nice shops, restaurants, breakfast joints and coffee and a big beautiful fish market.

    That property has made more than enough money for this. There is no reason to include anyone else unless the wharf owners are asking for a loan to repair it and will pay back the city with interest.

      …. Can you reread your comment …? You’re basically saying “well other people have it harder so…. Boo hoo….”
      You realize that these business owners likely can’t afford to keep their homes if their businesses are devastated ….

      @ this is my area that was hit in Tennessee so yeah like I said I feel bad for the business owners but people here are struggling while living in tents and the government and our representatives aren’t doing anything to help them. So if you think it’s boo hoo go visit the areas devastated by the hurricanes. Thousands have lost their homes and most their lives.

      We are not talking about a home. This is about a privately owned property that has made a lot of money. There is zero reason for the Fed to use our tax money when the wharf owners should have had insurance for this and put some of those millions they made off it into a rebuild account.

      @@kimkim2718 I'm aware it's not a home . My comment was a flip of someones opinion of where monies should come from and that there are 2 sides as to who and where money is spent. This is also not privately owned , but city /county of Santa Cruz owned i believe , which is state / county but still government tax dollars that will be spent above and beyond insurance if in fact there is.

    Might be time to get real and recognize that sea levels will only continue to rise. A managed pull-back would be the fiscally responsible thing to do.

    No taxpayer money to rebuild. If commercial interests want to rebuild, let them do it. No need to spend public money on a free fishing wharf. Let them buy cheap fish at Safeway.

      I don't really blame people who panic. Lack of
      information can be a big hurdle. I've been
      making more than $200k passively by just
      investing through an advisor, and I don't have
      to do much work. Inflation or no inflation, my
      finances remain secure. So I really don't blame
      people who panic.
