Hi, council It looks like building on the downtown parking lots, while it would help, wouldn’t fulfill what the city promised. I hear that someone floated the idea of eminent domaining the Sharon Heights golf course. That would be good for luxury condos but I think it would be a terrible place...

Thank you Mayor Nash ... Id say with the possibility of taking away parking in MP, with the possibility of a lot of construction going on in MP (hopefully both will be nil after the election), remove the plaza and if it has been a positive stop for young and elderly people to meet/rest, then find a ...

Unless we revamp downtown Santa Cruz avenue I prefer no plaza. Suggest council members visit Burlingame ave in Burlingame to see a thriving and attractive downtown that allows cars but no parking. Sent from my iPhone

Dear Council Members, I have lived in the Willows for 31 years. I am deeply concerned about all the development that is planned off of Middlefield Road. Specifically the 80 Willow Road Project. I request that the Council reject the developers October 27th deadline as a basis for rushing this ...

Dear Council members, I am curious as to why Menlo Park requires a permit to remove large eucalyptus trees when San Mateo County considers these trees to be hazardous. To quote a letter from Steve Monowitz, San Mateo County Planning and Building Director: Specifically, all eucalyptus, pines, acac...
