• State Coastal Conservancy Awards $1M to San Mateo County to Undertake Half Moon Bay Landfill Climate Resilience Planning Project (coastsidebuzz.com) — Half Moon Bay is getting up to $1 million in state funding for a major climate resilience planning project at the old landfill by Poplar Beach, including technical studies and community engagement. Local officials say the work should improve public safety and could eventually open the area to more recreation. The piece also reminds residents how to contact City Council and when to attend meetings.
• Public Pressure and Frustration for Continued Closure of Seton Coastside Medical and Refusal to Respond to County Counsel Lead Supervisors to Suggest the Subpoena Process to Get an Update (coastsidebuzz.com) — San Mateo County supervisors are openly frustrated over the prolonged closure of Seton Coastside in Moss Beach and are now considering subpoenas to force an update, a move that directly affects Half Moon Bay residents' access to nearby emergency and skilled‑nursing care. The article links this standoff to the stop‑and‑start history of urgent care on Main Street in Half Moon Bay, underscoring how fragile Coastside medical options remain. It also points readers to videos and past coverage if they want to follow the issue more closely.
• Bay Area News Group boys athlete of the week: Luke Pimentel, Half Moon Bay football (fresnobee.com) — A standout performance by Half Moon Bay High's Luke Pimentel just earned him Bay Area News Group's boys athlete of the week after he rushed for 131 yards and six touchdowns in a big win over Sacred Heart Prep. Local readers can also nominate Cougars athletes for next week's poll by emailing stats and results before Monday's deadline.
