Menlo Park should do the same as the Oakland City Council just did (see link below). Rather than "plan" (delay) for another 5 years until 2032, Oakland simply accepted SB 79 upzoning and extended it a bit further (providing a "slope" rather than a "cliff" at residential building heights). http...
Mayor Combs and City Council Members, I support more affordable housing in Menlo Park. In the right locations, it will strengthen our community. But our community is built around a shared downtown — and the downtown depends on the public parking plazas. Repurposing those plazas would be a once-i...
Dear City Manager Murphy, I am writing as a Belle Haven resident and member of the Belle Haven Pool Task Force to express my support for Meredith Rohr’s recent email and to share additional concerns regarding the Task Force and Belle Haven pool operations. For clarity, the key concerns are summariz...
Good morning, I can’t understand why you are still considering this housing when it is so unpopular with the citizens of Menlo Park. My guess is the people supporting this don’t live in the downtown area. We can’t sustain any more traffic. This traffic will affect both Palo Alto and Redwood ...

Honorable City Counsel Members, The division to build houses on city owned parking lots is too important and permanent not to go to the public vote. Please note that we care about convenient parking and health of downtown businesses. Please consider alternative sites for housing needs that have ...
Dear City Council, I am not sure how many residents had the opportunity to read the Almanac article titled “Menlo Park tries to improve accessibility to council meetings,” but I want to highlight some key points and share my concerns. According to the article, Menlo Park has taken some initial ste...
I am writing to voice my strong support for issuing RFPs for the downtown parking plazas. Having read the RFQs and the staff report, I feel like I have nothing to add that hasnt been covered by the report. I urge city council to disregard the vocal minority trying to keep low-income housing out of ...
