Dear Meta Oversight Board, We are writing to express our outrage and deep condemnation of your decision to allow the phrase “From the river to the sea” to remain on Meta’s platforms. This is not a matter of free speech; it is a call for genocide—a rallying cry for the destruction of Israel and th...

Dear City Council, I have been a user of Burgess pool since the late 1990s. The city used to have a difficult time keeping the facility running but that completely changed since Sheeper and his team started running the pool in 2006. They created an affordable, vibrant community around Aquatics whi...

Dear Menlo Park City Council, My wife and I moved to Menlo Park from San Carlos in 2004 because we wanted to be closer to a decent aquatic facility. When the City was running the pool, usage was fairly low and it was not uncommon that morning lap swim would not open due to occasional lack of li...

Dear City Council, I just read the article in the Almanac. My wife and I both like swimming for fitness and recreation and in 2004, we sold our house in San Carlos and bought a new house in Menlo Park, partly because we wanted to be closer to a local pool. San Carlos kept talking about opening ...

Hello, I have lived on Millie Avenue for 15 years. Turning Left from Millie onto University Drive has always been dangerous because cars parked on University completely block the view of incoming traffic. I was very happy to see the City council take on this issue and I am in full support. It i...

Dear Council and staff, Attached is an e-mail with the above title I sent to the Council back in 2015. I can no longer find it on the Menlo Park site so its probably long been deleted. I suspect my copy re-appeared from cache on my machine that it was originally sent from. I think this deserves seri...

All, I just returned from Safeway and took a back way home as dozens of debris trucks were queued up on El Camino Real heading north. These are the 2 trailer large trucks; I'm sure they were headed for Station 1300, but did not investigate further. I called the Menlo Park Police to report this and w...

Dear Council, I left some notes I intended to speak from last night at the Public Comment period of the City Council Special meeting. Unfortunately the agenda was specific that "only items on the agenda could be addressed." I was surprised to see the recording just now where Mayor Keith announced Pu...

All, At last night's Planning Commission meeting, Henry Riggs showed a picture of the CalTrain berm in San Carlos. This made me start to mentally compare that project to ours. Concentrating on the phase where the berm has been constructed and the overhead track bridge is about to be placed over the ...
