Dear Council members, I am thinking about the comment from a Menlo Park voter about what the apartments will actually be like: 1) looking out my new apartment window to the west I see a 5 to 8 story parking ramp. 2) looking South, North and East I see black top roofs with Air Conditioners, 3) I...
Sunday June 8, I spent the afternoon volunteering at the Save Downtown Parking booth, collecting many more enthusiastic signatures. Each council member should sit quietly at our booth and JUST LISTEN. Here is what you would have heard today: "The whole idea is a Disaster!", "I dont live in Menl...
Council People, Sanctuary city, again! Lawsuit? You are using taxpayers money to pick a fight with the Feds. How smart is that? A few years back mayor R.M. Told me in no uncertain terms that Menlo was NOT going to become a sanctuary city. A month later it was a "safe city". City funds pissed awa...

Hello Council and Staff, Is there a planned agenda for the Study Session on Homelessness? If not, I like to suggest the following: 1) What MP has done/is currently doing. That would include the homelessness services that we've recently contracted with Samaritan House for (housing relocation and stab...
Dear Menlo Park Council People, We have a severe housing crisis. It's not just Palo Alto or Menlo Park. Cities in the Bay Area without rent control means that tenants have no recourse if rents are raised. Please provide some relocation assistance protection for such tenants so that they can have tim...
