Huntington Beach Beaches:

Newsletter by Chris MacDonald

I'd like to start this Newsletter wishing you all a Very Happy New Year 2013.

A Very Happy Birthday to the following people. They are: Huntington Beach Resident Gina Greer and Port Of Los Angeles Executive Director For External Affairs Cynthia Ruiz.
Ruby's Diner to vacate Seal Beach Pier

On December 10, 2012, Ruby's Diner notified the City of Seal Beach that they are vacating the Seal Beach Pier location as of January 10, 2013. Ruby's has been a fixture on the Seal Beach Pier for the past 25 years, but recently decided not to extend their agreement with the City.

The City would like to wish Ruby's well in their future endeavors and thank them for serving the community for so many years. The City welcomes the opportunity to partner with a new establishment and will strive to preserve the elements that make visiting the pier a pleasing and desirable destination spot for residents and visitors.

A search for a new restaurant is in progress, and will begin in earnest immediately after January 10th. For more information please contact Assistant City Manager Sean Crumby at (562) 431-2527 ext. 1317.

There are no new Items of mention from Huntington Beach Police Department.

Huntington Beach Public Works Department Senior Planner Jason Kelley answered a question that I had been getting asked. It was, what is happening on The Old Patty's Pre School Site behind Home Depot on Goldenwest. Here's what Jason said:
This site is being developed as an assistant living facility. The plans have been approved by the planning department and should start construction sometime this month.
