I am writing to express my concerns over the proposed construction of affordable housing utilizing the City’s parking lots. I have read through the August 2024 report to familiarize myself with the plan should the Council choose to approve it. The plan seems to be an expedient way to comply wi...

Greetings Councilmembers, As a city resident since 1976 I would like to strongly urge the Council to reject the portions of the referenced agenda item proposals having to do with permanent closure of any section of Santa Cruz Ave. in either direction. The proposals I objected to via public com...
Hi as a Galata Bistro owner we would like to santa cruz ave to be open to traffic Cumhur Ulas

Menlo Park City Council, The city is sitting on a powder keg of upset Santa Cruz Ave merchants. We are in disbelief that that the block between Evelyn and Crane Streets is still closed. When approaching Santa Cruz Ave from the west, people are met with this detour: [cidimage001.png@01D750AA...

Menlo Park City Council and Chamber of Commerce, Please prioritize a way to help Galata Bistro that does not divert thousands of cars each day. Before the north side of the 800 block was re-opened, Roma was given several weeks to build out their parklet. The result has been wonderful, and the ...
