Rather than every city build its own walls, why don't we just build one wall across the bay to separate it from the ocean? We could put a bridge on top of it as well to help cross bay transport. This part of the bay would start to become fresh water which could be handy as well.

MVWSD (and County General Fund) why should we pay via Tax Revenue Diversions for Google and MV City responsibilities? This is just the type of question that my dear Dr. Rudolph (MVWSD Superintendent) might just ask. This can be paid for, by just a small fraction, of the Shoreline Community District property tax diversions / stretching over decades! There is no drastic need to divert almost all County Services social revenue [from Shoreline District property tax] to build this dike(?) or to divert almost all MVWSD operational revenue from this source either.

according to NOAA, the expected sea level change for Monterey Bay will be 6 inches in the next 100 years. 6 inches divided by 100 is .06 inches per year. If you believe the science, you might not see this as a crisis. If you believe the media, you are a "denier" of science..

Every day we truck excavated (clean) dirt from construction sites way south where the dirt owners have to pay $300-500 per load. Couldn't that be diverted to current and future levee construction? Save some mileage CO2. Let the authorities charge $100 per truck load and we all come out at a win-win-win.
