he SmartMeter controversy continues on the Central Coast. Last night Monterey City Council members agreed to vote on a year long moratorium during an upcoming council meeting. Meanwhile, in Marina, dozens protested outside Marina City Hall last night opposing the installation of SmartMeters saying the device would effect people’s health, privacy and the cost of their bills. The Marina City Council is expected to continue the SmartMeter discussion next Tuesday. Santa Cruz County and the City of Watsonville have already approved a moratorium on the installation of the meters.
