Monterey is in California.
Heaven help you Californians, who have not yet left before getting screwed over by the environmental whackos
and liberals who are driving Cali into bankruptcy and creating another Cuba, Venezuela, or other collapsed
ONCE PROSPEROUS socialist/communist country.
Cali has been having cities dissolved for years due to overtaxation that caused people to flee, giving less taxes over all
which led to firing police, fire departments, and selling off city property, since the cost of running city govts could no longer be supported
when side by side with liberal overspending to buy votes.
Cali cities went bankrupt during the Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger Era. Former movie star
Schwarzenegger had married into the Massachusetts Leftist, Liberal Kennedy family, who undoubtedly
gave Arnie liberal politicall advice, and got him re-elected. At some point, Schwarzenegger saw that Cali would not recover
from the liberal agenda, Arnie bailed out and several liberal democrat governors followed him.....in taking California down the tubes economically.
In 2019, liberal environmental whacko policies have caused massive California forest fires,
and to avoid getting sued, the power companies have been shutting off electricity to consumers.
Monterey County owns the Leguna Seca property.
I wonder if the county will rent Laguna Seca out to Waste Management for "processing" radioactive or other waste materials.
I'm sure that taxpayers who pay on April 15, will be subsidizing liberal Cali policies this year and for many years to come.
It looks like no one has ever looked to see if the federal taxes collected in Cali are equal to the amount of the millions
poured into Cali as grants, loans and "financial aid"......which supports the free free free programs of socialism.

I recall years ago there was a WWII airstrip South of I-4 near the St Johns River Eats of Orlando.
Around 1965-1968.....
SCCA leased it for $1 per year from the county, held driving schools, maybe autocrosses, maybe races also.
SCCA rented the airstrip to local clubs for autocrossing for $100 per day.
MacDill Sports Car Club in Tampa FL was one of those clubs.
Operation Grand Slam was the name of the one day event.
----------------------
At one point, the county (I want to say it was Osceola County...but may be incorrect on that)...
The county leased the airstrip to a phosphate company, who supposedly used it to dry out phosphate.
I never went back there again.
I still know how to get there.
I wonder what the county is doing with the airstrip these days.
Last time I saw it, there was a cable across the entrance.
