More coverage on HMB/Wavecrest settlement

There is a story on Half Moon Bay’s settlement with Wavecrest in the County Times.  There’s nothing new there, but there is a nice summary history of the project.  It’s a good place to start if you’re unfamiliar with the controversies surrounding this development.

Even more important to the city than the houses, however, are the middle school, the community park, and the baseball fields (which have already been built). Wavecrest has agreed to release the school and the Boys & Girls Club from its development contract if necessary so they can be built somewhere else.

Half Moon Bay mayor Jim Grady said he was hopeful that the development would be allowed to move forward in the next 18 months. He said that he was especially pleased that the city and the developer had managed to put the litigation behind them without going to court.
