The P-T today updates readers on  the ongoing encroachment battle on Alamitos Peninsula, making sure to note that “The Press-Telegram previously reported that the commission had launched a probe into the situation.”

And that’s true.

But that reporting only came after Dave Wielenga broke the encroachment story here in The District.

The news, however, is that the Coastal Commission is preparing to send letters out to some 30 peninsula residents asking them to remove the encroachments. If the residents don’t voluntarily comply, well, there’ll surely be a battle, one that residents (up against both state and local law) probably won’t win.
