If memory serves, the plan was to push a 4 lane road out as far as possible (the thinking was that Montana de Oro would be a huge draw and tourists needed to get past the bottle neck of downtown with all it's outdated street lights and tangled up no-left-turn outlets on it's litle two lane main st., etc. so they put in this HUGE freeway width street but ran smack into Sweet Springs. Couldn't widen that without whacking off a huge chunk of the building. So we're left with this weird 4-lane "freeway" that slams shut at S.S. And, of course, Montana de Oro didn't turn into a HUGE tourist draw with thousands of daily visitors. Oh, well.

Super location, right in the middle of the sewer named Los Osos and close to the school and library.

Actually, if they were located next to one another, and the McDonald's allowed to be open 24 hrs, all the drunks could WALK (as opposed to driving) over to McD's when the bar closes, and get some coffee and eats so as to sober up enough to go back to Sweet Springs to start drinking when it opens up at 6.am. Might be a good fit, business model-wise?

Most likely Bruce realized the vote was going to go the way it did so he could vote no on it and it really wouldn't change anything. Nice to see the business interest winning out over the objections of the local residents, again. /snarkBob from San Luishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06620515445128982233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13758431.post-69705551350246581162014-04-09T12:16:07.717-07:002014-04-09T12:16:07.717-07:00I still prefer to have a McDonald's than the S...I still prefer to have a McDonald's than the Sweet Springs Saloon in the neighborhood.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13758431.post-18318852946616417272014-04-09T10:03:36.152-07:002014-04-09T10:03:36.152-07:00Now your dogs can have real dog food late at night...Now your dogs can have real dog food late at night.
