Today's riddle: What has a cap but no head? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Hermosa Beach Dog Park hopefuls push forward with project (dailybreeze.com) — Hermosa Beach dog owners may finally be closer to an off-leash park, as Bark for a Park pushes a Valley Park East site now under city feasibility study. The group has nearly funded design work and is raising construction money, backed by a large matching donor, while gathering community input and planning a Halloween-themed Treat Stroll on Pier Avenue to keep momentum going.
• Utility Worker Dies At Hermosa Beach Jobsite (onscene.tv) — A utility worker died Wednesday night after an apparent medical emergency at a Bayview Drive jobsite in Hermosa Beach, despite 30 minutes of CPR by coworkers and paramedics. Authorities are still investigating whether the death was related to electrical work or another medical cause, and the worker's identity and employer had not yet been released, leaving many shaken at the scene.
• How Airbnb is fighting for its place on California's coast • The Mendocino Voice (mendovoice.com) — Hermosa Beach gets a key mention in a deep dive on how Airbnb is reshaping short‑term rental rules along California's coast, including a lawsuit that overturned the city's 2016 rental ban in coastal areas. The story explains how lobbying, legal challenges, and the Coastal Commission's recent decisions in Pacifica could influence what kinds of vacation rentals Hermosa Beach and other beach towns can realistically regulate going forward.
