City Council Members- You seem determined to waste the taxpayers money and make yourselves look like the *worst* representatives in the history of Menlo Park. Wasting our money on a PR firm is *NOT* going to help. Finding an alternative location for the housing will help. Not ruining our downt...
Mayor Combs and City Council Members, Please listen to your Menlo Park residents, and allow the parking plazas to stay put!! As a past shop owner in downtown for 8 years, I can tell you how badly the merchants need these spots for their customers. The whole town is talking about the awful street...
Dear City Council members: I’m writing to urge you to expand your consideration of our downtown and treat Santa Cruz Avenue (SCA) as a whole, rather than block by block. The Menlo Park downtown is truly a regional embarrassment. When we moved to the area in 1994, San Carlos, Los Altos, and Menlo...
Dear City Council, For decades, the City has underserved the Belle Haven community. Now we are facing a 36.36% jump in class fees at the Belle Haven Community Campus — from $33 to $45 — despite no increase in the variety of classes, no changes in instructors, and no visible program improvements...

I write the City Council deeply concerned that a combative stance towards the arrangement with Menlo Swim and Sport (MSS) threatens to destroy an incredibly valuable community asset. My wife and I are Menlo Park residents (Willows neighborhood) since 1986. For four decades, we have considered th...

I have just become aware of what a loss to the schools this new development of Stanford will be, and the already existing loss in properties owned in the city. An institution of such wealth should not be impinging on the local cities that provide services for their staff or academics. The figures th...
Dear Council Members: I am writing to urge the City Council to reject the Arrillaga donation to construct a new main library for Menlo Park. Rather, I believe that the Council should attempt to redirect the donation and/or use other funds to create a full-service library in Belle Haven. My understan...
