Coastal Rail Trail threatens Castle Mobile Home Estates in Capitola
Jeanette Bent
CAPITOLA, Calif. (KION-TV) — Capitola City Council heard a report Thursday that highlighted Castle Mobile Home Estates approaching an intense deadline.
The land that the mobile home park sits on, is designated for the Coastal Rail Trail, according to the City of Capitola.
The Regional Transportation Authority (RTA) had previously set a deadline of June 30 for property owners to move their homes and structures off of the land.
But some people living there say that when the RTC approached them about the project, the railway wasn’t mentioned.
This, and the cost to move the homes is simply too much to meet that deadline.
