Last week, the Half Moon Bay City Council joined the Pacifica City Council by formally endorsing the Seamless Transit Principles, a set of guidelines for San Francisco and Bay Area transit operators to establish a Highway 1 bus corridor and integrate public transportation across the region.
These principles are outlined by Seamless Bay Area, a nonprofit advocating transit agencies and elected officials embrace a unified and simplified transit system for buses, ferries and trains. So far, it
has been endorsed by over 34 organizations and 11 public bodies, including Alameda County, Redwood City, San Mateo and Berkeley. The seven principles listed on the nonprofitâs website include: run all Bay Area transit as one easy-to-use system, put riders first, make public transit equitable and accessible to all, align transit prices to be simple, fair, and affordable, connect effortlessly with other sustainable transportation, plan communities and transportation together, and prioritize r

Updated 3:15 p.m.: San Mateo County officials confirmed on Thursday that they had chosen LifeMoves to be the permanent operator of the new Coastside transitional housing shelter.
LifeMoves is one of two well-known social service organizations that answered San Mateo Countyâs request for proposals seeking a permanent operator for the Highway 1 shelter that until recently was a hotel. County manager Mike Callagy plans to formally announce the choice at the Half Moon Bay City Council meeting on Tuesday.
The Coastside Inn was converted into the areaâs first-ever shelter after the county purchased the 52-room hotel with $8 million from federal CARES act funding. As late as February, it sheltered 10 unhoused people â all from the Coastside â who were either over 65 or dealing with preexisting health conditions that left them at heightened risk for COVID-19. It was operated by Samaritan House in the beginning, but officials said they would seek a permanent arrangement
A parks master plan. A neighborhood traffic safety program. Sewer maintenance. All these and more were on the Half Moon Bay City Councilâs plate earlier this month when it approved a priority list of projects that together would bolster local infrastructure throughout the city.
The five-year Capital Improvement Program and Fiscal Year 2021-22 capital budget, which prioritizes projects for the next fiscal year, would cost an estimated $3,445,000, including nearly $2.5 million from the general fund. Now, the capital project list goes to the Planning Commission, which every year must make sure all projects align with the cityâs General Plan.
With easing of restrictions on social gatherings and warmer weather on the horizon, the city of Half Moon Bay is preparing for an influx of visitors to the Coastside over the next few months.
The Half Moon Bay City Council unanimously approved its 2021 Beach Action Plan last week. It is designed to alleviate the effects of increased traffic to the Coastside this year. With concerns over bathroom availability and adequate
infrastructure to support more people, the city is planning to add more trash cans, restrooms, signage and opportunities for beach cleanups. The plan will be in effect from May 1 through Oct. 15.
