DANA POINT : Skaters, Bicyclists Face 2 More Bans

Skateboarders, roller skaters and bicyclists were banned this week from two more shopping centers.

The City Council voted 4 to 1 Tuesday to ban the activities at Doheny Park Plaza, 34320 Pacific Coast Highway, and at Monarch Beach Plaza, 24040 Camino del Avion. The council vote also allocated $100 to put up five signs in each center announcing the new ban.

Dana Point Councilwoman Karen Lloreda of Capistrano Beach voted against the ban, as she has done in similar votes on other centers in town. Skateboarding, roller skating and bicycling have also been banned in La Plaza Park and the Ocean Ranch Center.
