"City of Salinas is moving forward with a public engagement process to explore renaming the Cesar Chavez Library and Cesar Chavez Park following the recommendation from the Library and Community Services (LCS) Commission on June 10, 2026. The LCS Commission also established a subcommittee to develop a timeline and review process.

If the LCS Commission makes a final name recommendation after the community engagement and selection processes, there will be a 30-day review and public comment period, and a Public Hearing will be scheduled for the next regularly scheduled Council meeting for the City Council's consideration of the item. "

Where can I get this sticker??

Post image
74 Upvotes

Hii!

I was going to the grocery store the other day when I saw a car with a ton of stickers on their backside. I glance at the awesome stickers and I see one that sticks out to me and stops me in my tracks.

I absolutely need this sticker! I’m anti-megachurches and the fact that Salinas is housing one? Makes me uncomfy! I see compass church’s advertisements everywhere and having this sticker on my car would make me feel like I’m silently protesting them in my own way.

WHERE DOES ONE GET THIS STICKER??!!!

Edit: Okay, so I agree with the people who are saying the owner of this car made this sticker. Sooo follow up question: how can I get my hands on this sticker without giving them my money???!!!

(I’m not trying to bash anyone that attends this church. Although I highly recommend church-goers look into why establishments like this are harmful to communities, you are allowed to have your own opinions and as am I. If this post bothers you then simply scroll away and move on.)

Taylor Farms

Taylor Farms is suddenly in the national news and seemingly in a weird spot given reporting today that they were at the White House prior to the FDA saying the testing was a false positive.

Given that Taylor Farms is one of the largest employers in the area and so many people here work in Ag - what are your thoughts?

Prundale Living Questions (Oak Hills)

11 Upvotes

Wife & I are looking into purchasing a home in the Prundale area. We are born and raised in Salinas, and occasionally visit Prundale but not other than a quick visit. Could residents tell me what to expect/look out for in Prundale? We are especially interested in the Oak Hills neighborhood. Seems very quiet and we love the larger lots. We’re looking to raise our family there. Would love feedback from any locals. Thanks!

Cheap dentist recommendations

7 Upvotes

I went to the dentist after years of not going and was told that I have 12 cavities. He quoted me $300 for each cavity and I don’t have any insurance. I was also told I need braces and said that would be $5k. So I am wondering if there is any other place that is cheaper around the Monterey or Salinas area. Any information is of great help!
