Aliso pier demolition sparks water agency safety concerns
Bids due for the 660 foot Aliso Pier demolition after El Nino battered the structure. The outfall lies 150 feet north, raising fear the wrecking will affect bedrock and the coastal wastewater line. County officials moved fast to select a contractor, with plans to protect the outfall and possibly reroute or repair it in the next budget. Locals react with sadness but accept the pier’s end, hoping a rebuilt version appears elsewhere.

Diamondhead land access fuels dispute with city council
A 2.1 acre undeveloped parcel worth over 1 million sits blocked as Laguna Niguel votes Sept 15 to approve the Jack Binion final tract map. Diamondhead Partnership lawyers threaten litigation over alleged landlocked access, citing constitutional rights and plans to reconfigure two lots for a driveway, while saying they may sell to Binion or Laguna Niguel if required.
