I know teachers and community participants there. Why arent you listening to THEM instead of the administrators administering deterioration and conflict. Grow a spine. Do the right thing. People other than ignorable poor and old folks ARE watching.
Dear Council Members, The decision to build housing on downtown parking lots should still be considered carefully. Currently, condo prices have been falling slightly since 2018. Also, the jobs that have been added to Menlo Park are dominated by Meta in east Menlo Park. Adding housing downtown ...
Hello City Council, It is very disheartening to hear that those that would like to see other options explored to build affordable housing with proper community input have been dismissed as a small group. Sounds like the concerns of business owners, property owners and many residents arent being con...

Because of our split Laurel campuses, many of our students and families use Coleman as a main transportation route between the campuses. It is even listed on the Menlo Park-produced Safe Routes map for students a...
Council, you need to show some Backbone when it comes to your "low-income" housing ideas for downtown! The homeowners on the Westside arent going to like it when their property values drop by 15-25%.
