Dear Mayor Dubois and Councilmembers:
I have a few comments to share regarding the drought update you just received from Valley
Water. Director Kremen was correct that Valley Water is in a tough position this year. Theydepend heavily on imported Delta water from the State Water Project and Central Valley
Project, which are subject to curtailments. Also, their temporary loss of Anderson Reservoirhas a big impact on storage.
Director Kremen pointed out that Palo Alto gets its water from the SFPUC. The SFPUC’s
supply is in better shape than any other water agency I know of in the State. Keep in mindthat Hetch Hetchy is only a quarter of their storage. At full storage, the SFPUC has enough
water to last six years. Today, storage is at around 70%. After two very dry winters, theycurrently have enough water to last 4.5 years. If next year is an average year, their reservoirs
will fill to capacity.
The SFPUC is well positioned to manage long droughts. For example, because we've reducedour water demand so much over the past few decades, the SFPUC could manage a repeat of
the drought of record (six years from 1987-92), with the Bay Delta Plan in effect, withoutrequiring any rationing or developing any new alternative water supplies. Through rationing
and developing recycled water, a considerably longer drought could be managed.
We don’t need to panic, but we should still be water-wise and encourage conservation. Landscaping with climate-appropriate plants, such as native species, is probably the best thing
we could do. I'd love to see more coast live oaks planted as street trees. Not only can theysurvive our dry summers, they provide exceptional food and habitat for native wildlife. By
planting natives, we support local wildlife as well as the salmon-based ecosystem in the Bay-Delta and Central Valley by freeing up desperately needed water to flow down the Tuolumne
and other rivers.
The Palo Alto recycled water project is another big step in the right direction. I applaud theefforts of Director Kremen, Mayor Dubois and Councilmember Burt in moving that project
forward.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment.

Subject:280/300 Lambert Proposal Violates City Height Law
Date:Sunday, August 15, 2021 12:39:43 PM
CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Be cautiousof opening attachments and clicking on links.
Dear Councilmembers:
The staff report for 280/300 Lambert (to be heard this Monday) correctly quotes the height limit law
applicable to the PHZ proposal but ignores that the proposed building will substantially violate that law.
PHZ projects within 150 feet of residentially-zoned property can be no more than 35 feet in height The
rear of 280/300 Lambert abuts RM-30 land on the same side of the creek, as can be seen on packet page
14 of the staff report. The rest of the Fry’s site on the other side of the creek is also RM-30. Since
280/300 Lambert’s lot is 159 feet deep, the abutting RM-30 zone effectively limits the entire PHZ project
to 35 feet tall. The staff report does not mention the adjoining RM-30 zone and instead considers only an
R-1 site across Lambert that is further than 150 feet from much of 280/300 Lambert.
Here’s the applicable law from 18.38.150, part of which you can also find on packet page 16, with my
highlighting:
Sites abutting or having any portion located with one hundred fifty feet of any RE, R-1, R-
2, RM, or any PC district permitting single-family development or multiple-family development
shall be subject to the following additional height and yard requirements:
…
(b) All Other Uses. The maximum height within one hundred fifty feet of any RE, R-1, R-2,
RM, or applicable PC district shall be thirty-five feet; provided, however, that for a use where
the gross floor area excluding any area used exclusively for parking purposes, is at least sixty
percent residential, the maximum height within one hundred fifty feet of an RM-4 or RM-5 district
shall be fifty feet.
The "RM" shorthand is used throughout our zoning code to refer to any zone beginning with the "RM"
(multi-unit) designation, including RM-30. The final phrase above regarding proximity to RM-4 and RM-5
districts is not relevant since no nearby parcels have those zoning designations, which are in fact
obsolete. The staff report contains no discussion as to why the above law doesn’t apply to the proximity
of the RM-30 district to 280/300 Lambert.
This same law was important in recently protecting residents of Palo Alto Central from a very tall abutting
mixed-use proposal. But once you allow one project to avoid such a law, City staff and developers can
cite that as a new precedent (or "interpretation") for other projects as well. So it's vital that the Council
insist that our 35 foot height limit law be correctly applied to 280/300 Lambert.
Please note that for 100% affordable housing projects, our laws restrict their height to 35 feet only within
50 feet of the most common residential zones, including RM-30. That gives an important economic
advantage to 100% affordable housing projects and can help us meet our RHNA goals for the lower-
income levels. But by allowing 280/300 Lambert to avoid entirely the PHZ's 35 feet height limit near RM-
30, you would be handing a greater financial benefit to a commercial project than a 100% affordable
housing would get at this same location and then creating a terrible precedent for that across the city. So
that's another reason to insist that we follow the law in this case.
Thank you,
Jeff Levinsky

Dear City Council Members:
Please find a way to encourage the developers of 280-300 Lambert to go back to the drawing
board during tomorrow's pre-screening. Tell them to come back with a for-profit project thatabides by the PHZ - the aegis under which it is proposed. If they want to exceed the height
limit within 150 of RM, then they need to come back with an all affordable building, trulyaffordable. That is the only way Venturans would countenance relaxation of the code,i.e. to help the people that really need housing get it.
We've met our recent RHNA goals for market and above priced housing, right? What we needis BMR
Please offer Ventura the same respect that other neighborhoods are shown when developers
exceed the zoning code. Why should Ventura not have parity?
We are still reeling from 2951 ECR getting some kind of nod from Council at itsprescreening. I don't know who's calling the shots over there, but if Council is advised not to
be negative, then what is the purpose of the prescreening anyway? At least, please saysomething like "we want you guys to abide by the zoning code."
Venturans need your help. Thank you.

I am writing to urge you to enforce current zoning laws for the PHZ proposal on Lambert. The
proposal has only the required 20% below market rate housing. Yet, the proposal violates theheight limit for the proposed condominiums by 15 feet. This project abuts RM-30 lots;
consequently, the entire project should be limited to 35 feet height. Exceptions to zoningrequirements should be reserved for projects that offer more below market rate housing.

Council members,
The zoning code exists for a reason. It is there to define how land is to be developed and
what purposes land is to serve. Historically it has also been a way to protect the safety andhealth of a community. It is intended, for instance, to ensure that residents don't have to live
next to structures or entities detrimental to their health, safety and quality of life (that theybought into when they originally bought the property).
Small exceptions to the zoning laws which address a tricky issue while preserving the overall
character and intent of the neighborhood are reasonable, but when the city gets into grantingselectively or even evaluating selectively the criteria for granting exceptions and these
exceptions are orders of magnitude off from what the zoning laws permit (for instance whyisn't it considering the RM-30 zone adjoining this project while making the pretence to include
an R-1 which is largely outside the impacted zone) then it makes mockery of the laws.
Our nation also has a long history where zoning laws have been selectively misused causingdeleterious social, health and economic impact to the residents. We should be moving away
from that history.

CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Be cautiousof opening attachments and clicking on links.
Dear Mayor DuBois and Council members,
I am writing on behalf of Palo Alto Forward in support of the housing proposal at 280/300
Lambert and the request to rezone the properties to “Planned Home Zoning (PHZ)”.
The proposed project at 300 Lambert provides 49 homes, including 10 affordable
ownership units. This is a great opportunity to expand affordable homeownership in a
neighborhood near transit and California Avenue businesses. Our waitlist for ownership
units, particularly those that could house a family with children, is decades long. But this
proposal could be a step toward correcting that.
We concur with the staff report around maintaining the pedestrian access easement along
Matadero Creek and support efforts to secure this potential amenity as envisioned in the
NVCAP. The proposed parking reduction is important and will be offset by their strong TDM
plan. This is one of many ways to reduce automobile reliance and support transit use,
bicycling and walking.
Additionally, the City of Palo Alto has asked housing developers to correct our jobs to
housing imbalance by focusing on housing over commercial development. Current zoning,
and the NVCAP, identify both sites for commercial or mixed-use development. But this
developer has chosen to concentrate their square footage on meeting our greatest need:
new homes. We hope you will move this proposal forward with minimal constraints in order
to demonstrate that Palo Alto wants to make housing at all income levels a priority.

Dear City Council,
I support the following statements with respect to the proposed project at 280-300
Lambert:
1. Developers should stick to the building code and stop asking for
giveaways from the City.
2. The City should not underwrite private profits by allowing the developer
to exceed the current building standards.
3. When we relax our building standards, it should be in service of an all
affordable or Below Market Rate project (like Wilton Court) and not
in service of a for-profit developer.
4. This will set a terrible precedent and will invite more developers to do the
same.
5. Please protect Ventura the same way Council has protected other
neighborhoods from zoning violations. It’s unfair to enforce the code in
some neighborhoods and not in Ventura.
6. Remember that Palo Alto has met its RHNA goals for at market and
above priced housing, but has never met its BMR obligation. Encouraging
this project to go forward will make our dreams of BMR housing even
harder to realize, because we are giving the zoning away for free.

Subject:Project proposal at 280-300 Lambert needs to be rejected !
Date:Monday, August 16, 2021 4:08:11 PM
CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Be cautiousof opening attachments and clicking on links.
Dear City Council Members, I am a long time resident of the Ventura/Meadow area in south Palo Altoand I am writing to express my deep concerns regarding this proposal that is to be
pre-screened by the City Council this evening.
There are a host of reasons why it does not make sense for the citycouncil to approve this project. One of the reasons is that it sets a bad precedent for
other proposals that would insist on being granted similar exceptions as this one.
Chief among these are the following :
1. Developers should stick to the building code and stop asking for giveaways from
the city
2. This project is a for-profit and the city should not underwrite private profits byallowing the developer to exceed the current building standards3. When we relax our building standards, it should be in service of an all affordable
or Below Market Rate project (like Wilton Court) and not in service of a for profit
developer !4. Setting this terrible precedent we only invite more developers to do the same in
the not too distant future !
5. It is very important that the Council has to protect the Ventura neighborhood, the
way they have protected other neighborhoods from zoning code violations. Enforcing the city's building code in some neighborhoods and not in Ventura wouldbe terribly unfair.
6. It is accurate to say that Palo Alto has met its RHNA goals for, at market and
above priced housing, but has never met its BMR obligation. Encouraging thisproject to go forward will make our dreams of BMR housing even harder to realize,because we are giving the zoning away for free.
As a great public service, Palo Alto resident Jeff Levinsky of the EdgewoodNeighborhood has prepared a short, clear and coherent background paper to educate
us on the problems associated with the project proposal at 280-300 Lambert that
you, the City Council, is to consider this evening. At the risk of repeating the points
raised by Mr. Jeff Levinsky, I am nevertheless going to reproduce the same, toremind you of what is at stake:
280-300 Lambert proposes to use the PHZ zone, but its attributes exceed what is
allowed.
PHZ projects within 150 feet of residentialy-zoned property can be no more than 35
feet in height The applicant is asking for a height of 50 feet. The rear of 280/300
Lambert abuts RM-30 land on the same side of the creek, as can be seen on packetpage 14 of the staff report. The rest of the Fry’s site on the other side of the creek isalso RM-30. Since 280/300 Lambert’s lot is 159 feet deep, the abutting RM-30
zone effectively limits the entire PHZ project to 35 feet tall. The staff report does
not mention the adjoining RM-30 zone and instead considers only an R-1 site acrossLambert that is further than 150 feet from much of 280/300 Lambert.
Here are some added pointers as to why the City Council needs to put their foot
down and not approve the exceptions that are being asked for.
The staff report contains no discussion as to why the above law doesn’t apply to the
proximity of the RM-30 district to 280/300 Lambert.
This same law was important in recently protecting residents of Palo Alto Centralfrom a very tall abutting mixed-use proposal. Once we allow one project to avoid
such a law, City staff and developers can cite that as a new precedent (or
"interpretation") for other projects as well. So it's vital that the Council insist thatour 35 foot height limit law be correctly applied to 280/300 Lambert. I am
highlighting the words " CIty staff " in red because we the residents expect them to
follow the language of the code, as it exists on the books now!
Please note that for 100% affordable housing projects, our laws restrict their height
to 35 feet only within 50 feet of the most common residential zones, including RM-
30. That gives an important economic advantage to 100% affordable housing
projects and can help us meet our RHNA goals for the lower-income levels. But byallowing 280/300 Lambert to avoid entirely the PHZ's 35 feet height limit near RM-
30, you would be handing a greater financial benefit to a commercial project than a
100% affordable housing would get at this same location and then creating a terrible
precedent for that across the city. So that's another reason to insist that we followthe law in this case. This project will deter the production of the housing we reallyneed.
For all of the above cited reasons and the relevant arguments, it is important thatyou, the City Council, reject the proposal.
Thank you for hearing me out and hoping that you would do right by the majority of
the city's residents in general and the residents of Ventura in particular. No stepmotherly treatment here, please.
Sincerely,
Ranganath

https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/files/assets/public/agendas-minutes-reports/reports/city-manager-reports-cmrs/2021/id-11930.pdf
How can they make the claim in the Executive Summary that they are adopting the WorkingGroups goals (as developed over 17 meetings and 2 years or dedicated work), when their#3B proposal is in direct contradiction of the overwhelming results and recommendations ofthe Working Group?
I believe this is not the first time the Staff has submitted barefaced lies in their reports toCouncil in an effort to push their own agenda. The current Staff leadership has lostcredibility with me, and I would hope, with many others. Hearing them present reports nowsounds like Fox News to me, and I cannot trust anything they say to be fact-based, althoughI am sure much of it is. All the details and numbers in their reports are probably mostly true,but they have all become suspect to me.
How does the Council tolerate this? Can we fix the Staff leadership? or has Palo Altoflipped to the dark side, and it is just too late to recover.

Palo Alto City Council,
I frequently visit the Charleston Forebay area at the end of San Antonio Road for hiking and
birding, and am concerned about the potential negative impact of the transitional housing
project on the wildlife in this area. I understand that Palo Alto is short on land for supportive
housing, but the former water treatment plant should not be considered wasteland - its value
for wildlife habitat is enormous. There is a potential to harm the nearby marshes and the
thousands of migratory birds and other wildlife that depend on them through increased noise,
nighttime lighting, and automobile emissions. If this is the only available location, please
consider imposing the following conditions:
Outside lighting should be minimized and directed downward.
Windows should be made of material that will minimize bird collisions.
Residents should be prohibited from keeping outdoor cats that will harm wildlife.
When the need for this facility is over, it should be restored to a natural condition to
provide a buffer against sea-level rise.
Thank you for considering these suggestions.

Dear Editor,
In response to your recent story on a project that would have Life Moves developing
115 units to house homeless people-- I have an objection: Life Moves was given Clare
Mateo Women's Shelter ten years ago and have no answer when asked what they did
with this resource.
The Life Moves PR department will only say that they're using Clare Mateo to fulfill
their mission to house people in need. They did not respond to repeated requests for
examples.
I suggest that before Life Moves is given responsibility over designated homeless
shelter units, they should account for what they did with Clare Mateo.
Palo Alto has a regrettable record when it comes to providing shelter. The
disappearance of the shelter beds at Clare Mateo is but one example of Palo Alto not
doing as much as other Peninsula cities to respond to the needs of homeless folks and
a housing shortage that gets worse every year.

Dear City Council Members,
I was disappointed to read about the response from Stevenson House
about the van parking in the Unitarian Church and about the council putting
off their decision.
I asked my friend who lives in Stevenson House about the negative
response from Stevenson House. She said she had gone to one
informational meeting about it, but the meeting was so chaotic that she
didn't go to the second one. (Having simultaneous translation and an
audience that talks during the presentations is very hard on someone who
wears hearing aids.) She is in favor of allowing the van parking.
She said the residents as a whole were never asked to vote on this issue.
The negative response is pure NIMBYism. The fears seem bogus. I
haven't heard of any incidents involving the folks living in their vans.
Assuming that these folks are different from other neighbors is the epitome
of stereotyping and fearmongering.
I am certainly in favor of the city allowing parking lots in churches or empty
store parking lots to be used for van parking. It's better than having them
park on the streets. I hope the city will provide sanitation facilities, too.

District Attorney's race: Let the debates begin. This racewill decide a key component of how justice in ourcommunity will be administered for years to come.Listen to the debates and vote on June 7, 2022.
The candidates must come to Palo Alto to debate so wecan hear their positions on the critical criminal and socialjustice issues of the day. We must demand a positivecampaign focused on the issues not attack politics basedon demeaning your opponent.
I personally could care less which side has accumulatedthe most money or the most, often totally meaningless,endorsements. I want to hear the substantive differencesbetween the candidates, which candidate has the mostpractical ideas to end mass incarceration and masscriminalization?
We need real world solutions to ending systemic racismin our criminal justice system. Which candidate candeliver real world solutions, not just lip service andsymbolic gestures that aren’t focused on real change?
Which candidate offers the best ideas, including a partialdefunding of the district attorneys office? With the goal
of redistributing monies, currently set aside forunnecessary prosecutions, jails and prisons, to social
problems, like housing, education, and quality healthcare. Solutions that go directly to the root causes of
crime.
Which candidate can commit to prosecuting bad copswith the same passion, resources, and professionalism,
equal protection of the law and due process as iscurrently applied to the prosecution of ordinary
community members?
Which candidate supports a stronger public defender’soffice with an elected public defender and with more
equal funding between the two offices?
Which candidate can best guarantee safety in ourcommunity while at the same time promoting a
restorative justice approach, not just old school modelsof punitive justice?
Which candidate stands for justice for all, not just justice

Dear Mayor DuBois and Palo Alto City Council Members,Attached is my statement to the Sustainability and Climate Action Plan Ad Hoc Committee
and a copy of a letter on this subject I sent to you 4/13/20.Thank you for considering my comments.
Gail Price
Palo Alto, CA
Comments about the Sustainability/Climate Action Plan8/12/21
Sustainability and Climate Action Plan Ad Hoc Committee
Dear Vice Mayor Burt and Councilmember Cormack:
I’m Gail Price, Resident and Member of 350 SV Palo Alto Climate Team.
I have submitted numerous statements over the years about the urgency of addressing climatedestruction in Palo Alto and the region. I have attached one of those statements (4/13/20), withrecommendations. You should prioritize and accelerate the S/CAP schedule in order to make a
difference. Political will and strategic funding are key.
The recent UN IPCC report has been described as a “a code red for humanity.” Reducingtemperatures will be beyond reach in the next two decades without immediate, rapid and large scale
reductions in green house gas emissions.
As Todd Stern in Yale Environment 360 notes: Major shifts in attitude and behaviors have occurredin social and economic spheres. But the key ingredients that are in short supply are the human
factors: political will and the rapidly evolving norms and attitudes about climate change that cangenerate that will.
The City Council’s policies and actions matter, our degree of commitment to climate destruction
matters. We have opportunities and advantages, including access to considerable professional,governmental, community, scientific and academic expertise. I believe we are failing to make a difference and we have fallen behind what other elected officialsthroughout the world are accomplishing. I believe all Council members have responsibilities to
support urgent impactful policies and actions that are life-affirming and create a more stable andhealthy future.
Attachment: Prior Letter to Palo Alto City Council about S/CAP on 4/13/20 includesrecommendations:
4/13/20 2 pages Comments about the Sustainability and Climate Action Plan
I commend the City of Palo Alto and the City Council for work on Sustainability and Climate Action Plan goals, policies and
implementation plans.
There is absolutely no question that the ongoing work on the S/CAP is both urgent and critical. I strongly support a more focused work
plan that results in critical outcomes. Without focused work and adjustments now the document will not serve our community well.
The current pandemic illustrates how the lack of real plans, funding, and specific coordinated actions can delay life sustaining outcomes
and cause irretrievable damage, suffering and death. The parallels between evolving pandemic impacts and lack of strategies, policies
and actions are to the deficiencies in addressing climate change. We need more proactive measures, planning, adaptation and resilience.The comparisons are troubling and stark.
While City work plans have been impacted by the pandemic and economic volatility, serious work on this Plan is necessary.
I strongly urge you to revise the implementation plan to incorporable clear performance standards and measurable outcomes. For
example, a list of actions is not sufficient unless the results are analyzed and approaches adjusted to inform staff and the community. The
goals should be to meet and exceed goals with continuous improvementThe City of Santa Monica has a sustainability/climate change
plan that models such a format.
The quarterly and annual updates should focus primarily on the reduction of Green House Gas Emissions through land use/community
design (and smart development infill) and sustainable outcomes. The analyses should prioritize what further actions and policies might
yield results to meet or exceed stated Plan goals. As results emerge, the methodology could be improved and more ambitious goalsidentified. The Plan should clearly convey the opportunities and challenges. The other Plan elements are important; the more immediate
results may come sooner with a better focus.
My recommendations are as follows:
1. Review other community Sustainability/Climate Action Plans for content and clarity and measurability. The Institute for Local
Government has tremendous resources related to work of other communities. Three cities that I have been impressed by are
Davis and Santa Monica. Several university communities, such as Ann Arbor, would also be comparable to Palo Alto. There are
numerous examples of Sustainable Best Practices Toolkits, climate adaptation and resilience plans and ways to use responsive
infrastructure.
2. Another key resource is coolcalifornia.org. It is likely these resources have been used already but more recent updates are
helpful.
3. Create a coalition of adjacent cities of comparable sizes to coordinate complementary Sustainability and Climate Action Plans.
There may be policies and economies of scale that could benefit mid-size cities in our immediate region. Additionally, actively
involving business and university sectors could provide research and concept testing options.
4. Support the operation and expertise of the Transportation Management Association. There are many programs and initiatives
which could be demonstration projects to achieve greater Green House Gas Reductions. If not already done, there should be a
regional summit of TMAs in the region to enhance support and collaboration and to better utilize best practices. Transportation
and mobility is is clearly a regional issue and not solely a local one (applies to Point 3 and 4).
5. All City capital projects should explicitly state how the design and operation (including use of performance measures) will
address Sustainability/Climate Action Plan Goals. I understand the City of San Francisco currently does this.
6. In the staff reports, as appropriate, include a section of the detailing how the program or project addresses goals and actions of
the S/CAP plan. It could be even more focused by noting the amount of Green House Gas Emissions could be reduced and by
what means.
7. At a minimum, use TransForm’s Green TRIP calculator to quantify trip reductions and promote the use of alternative mobility
options to meet sustainability goals. This model and formula have been codified in other Peninsula communities. These
methodologies examine and document the environmental impacts of proposed projects. It would be a more standardized
approach.
All of these recommendations could assist the City Council in making more informed decisions while creating a more sustainable and
healthy future for the City.
Thank you,

FYI:
Hi Mark,
I can always count on you to provide the most provocative andcontroversial comments, you certainly haven’t let me down this time.
I followed New York City’s mayors’ race pretty closely, my brotherTim ( a real lawyer-Princeton/NYU ) and very active in democraticpolitics in New York ( once worked for Jerry Nadler) and is stillfriends.
When Tim isn’t making a living his hobby is electoral law/politics -used to hold republicans to the letter of the law in local politicalraces. And he is very good and driving Republicans crazy.
I read the NYT so when we talk I can try to keep up with him, whichis impossible -he’s way way quick! My poor brother, the veryreasonable moderate democrat- has a history of cringing at his olderwest coast brother’s alleged radical views on all things politics,police, etc. I view Tim’s brother as a rather moderate individual…when it comes to politics, bad cops, etc.
Tim practices matrimonial law in a mostly small Jewish firm withhigh end clients. He is currently representing Michael Moore’s x wifein a never ending divorce proceeding involving several jurisdictions.He is mostly the firm’s appellate guru…but can mix it up in thecourtroom as well.
Anyway all of this to say I was pulling for your friend Maya Wiley towin the mayor’s race. I was familiar with her polices and smarts fromher days as an MSNBC commentator, a job she had to forgo whenshe ran for mayor.
I love both Cornell West and Eddie Glaude Jr. I just read EddieGlaude Jr.’s latest book-a must read if you love James Baldwin:
Begin Again: James Baldwin’s America and it’s urgent messagefor our own.
And of course no one is better at shining a light on American
hypocrisy, racism, political theater, the culture wars, the greatAfrican American musicians, poets, artist, political figures
contemporary and historic then Cornell West.
While you’ve stopped eating Ben & Jerry’s Ice cream, my dearJewish brother Mark, the only ice cream I now eat is exclusively Ben
& Jerry’s.
Finally, I hope you will become fully informed on both DA JeffRosen and his opponent for District Attorney Sajit Khan. The single
most powerful political figure in any community is the electedprosecutor. A prosecutor can change your life forever with the stroke
of a pen when they decide to rightfully or wrongfully charge you witha crime.
For anyone who wants to more fully understand the awesome power
of an American prosecutor I highly recommend the following book:Arbitrary Justice: The Power of the American Prosecutor by
Angela J. Davis.
Mark, I very much look forward to your always irreverent, blues like,jazz like, poetry like commentary. Can’t wait for the next one. Please
consider writing more about the District Attorney’s race as itprogresses. Maybe with your PR skills you can pull
together a debate between the two candidates that includes asimultaneous cultural event to raise funds for a worthy social justice
cause both candidates can support. Just a thought.
Best,
Aram

Dear Chief McNally,
I understand you're filling in for Officer Blackshire temporarily, hence I'm writing to you today and cc'ing
Chief Blackshire and the City's leadership.
I live across the street from the Sunrise Senior Center on Sheridan Avenue and El Camino. Sunrise hasfrequent emergency visits from fire trucks and ambulances. I am alarmed that the emergency personnelleave the vehicles running while they are inside the building attending to the emergency situations. Thevehicles can be running for extended periods of time.
Given the existential climate crisis we are facing, I want to ask: Is it possible to turn off those motors inorder to reduce the methane emissions that are causing our wildfires, extreme heat, droughts, floods andhurricanes? Leaving the vehicles running seems to be incredibly negligent. Can you correct thesituation? If I can help in any way, please let me know.

Date:Monday, August 16, 2021 2:48:40 PM
CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Be cautious of openingattachments and clicking on links.
City Clerk Milton,
Council's 08-23-21 agenda is 264 pages long!https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/files/assets/public/agendas-minutes-reports/agendas-minutes/city-council-agendas-
minutes/2021/august/20210823/20210823pccsm-linked.pdf
Yesterday I received a message (see below the "######" line) that said:
"2. The agenda packet has been provided in its entirety, instead of linking to individual reports. Each agenda itemcan be navigated through bookmarks on the left hand side. Within the agenda pdf page, please go to the left-hand
side panel. Then click the icon of a document, indicating the 'Document Outline.' Click 'Full Agenda.' You will see differentsections of the agenda that you can jump to. This was done to help standardize the information that is shared with both
the public and the Council and reduce confusion. If you have any questions or suggestions, contact the City Clerk's Officeat City.Clerk@CityofPaloAlto.org."
I think this is a very bad idea. Please consider going back to the old way of doing things, where the staff reports, minutes,
letters from citizens, etc. associated with an agenda are incorporated by clickable links, not copied into the agenda
document itself.
1. In most cases, the person accessing the agenda isn't interested in everything that is incorporated either by links orcopying. With links, you can look at only what you're interested in. Also, if we ever get back to having in-person Council
meetings at City Hall, and if the City continues to be required to provide printed copies of the agenda (and other things) toattendees, it would be good if agendas were only 5-8 pages or so. Also, huge documents are inconvenient for people
with slow internet connections.
2. Using links, each linked-to thing in the agenda has its own URL, which can be referenced by other documents. With
flattened agendas, I take it that, say, each staff report doesn't have its own URL. So, to reference a staff report within anagenda, you'd have to specify both the agenda's URL and instructions for finding the staff report within the agenda.
3. If a staff report is its own separate document, I can (PDF) search for things within the document and not find things in
other documents.
Thanks.

and perhaps other deliberative bodies. From these examples, it's obvious that there's a standardized program that addsthe agenda item number and the packet page number to each page of the document. The user of the standardized
program has to specify the packet page number of the first page and the item number.
So, in the past, why wasn't this done for all documents considered by all of the City's deliberative bodies? If that had
been done, would that have solved the "confusion" problem without having to flatten agendas?
By the way, the standardized program that adds the packet page numbers puts that information on top of whatever otherinformation is in the document. So, ideally, all documents should be designed not to put any information where the packet
page number and agenda item number will go. For an example that doesn't do this, see packet page 12 here:https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/files/assets/public/agendas-minutes-reports/agendas-minutes/city-council-agendas-
minutes/2021/august/20210823/20210823pccsm-linked.pdf
In the special case where an old document (with packet page numbers and agenda item number) is copied into a newer
document, the old packet page numbers and agenda item number will be completely obscured by new packet page
numbers and agenda item number. OK? I think it's OK. Packet page numbers should be relevant only for the duration of
the meeting.
PPS:
Actually, I'm not clear about why, to avoid confusion, each page of documentation considered at a meeting of adeliberative body has to have a unique packet page number. At any point in the meeting, won't the deliberative body be
considering one and only one agenda item number? So, as long as each page within an agenda item number has a
unique page number, isn't that good enough to avoid confusion? (Keep in mind that an agenda item number might have
a staff report, a presentation document, a memo, a public comment document, etc. Maybe you want a unique page
number for each page in this collection of documents.)
Over the years, staff has used a variety of ways to number the pages of a document. It could use just arabic numbers,starting with "1" for the first page. It could fail to print "1" on page one. It could fail to print any page numbers. It could
start with roman numerals. It could have separate numbering schemes for each subdocument. Etc. Perhapsstandardizing the way individual documents are page numbered could help to avoid "confusion."
PPPS:
If Council's 08-09-21 agenda had been flattened, it would have been 1906 pages long -- or even longer if presentationsand memos associated with items were included.

Subject: Notice for City Council Meetings' Agendas and Reports
The City of Palo Alto has upcoming City Council and/or Sub-Committee meetings. View the updated agendas and reports.
Notice for City Council and
Sub-Committee Meetings
Agendas posted as of August 12, 2021
Pursuant to the California Governor’s Executive Order N-29-20, issued on March 17, 2020, to
prevent the spread of Covid-19, the City Council meetings will be held by virtual teleconference
only. The meeting will be broadcast on Cable TV Channel 26, live on the City of Palo Alto's
YouTube Channel, and Midpen Media Center. Members of the public who wish to participate by
computer or phone can find the instructions at the beginning and end of each agenda. To ensure
participation in a particular item, we suggest calling in or connecting online 15 minutes before
the item you wish to speak on.
Update on Agenda Navigation
We have made two minor changes to the way the August 23rd agenda is presented.
1. The tentative time schedules have been moved to the end of each agenda item title.
2. The agenda packet has been provided in its entirety, instead of linking to individual
reports. Each agenda item can be navigated through bookmarks on the left hand side.
Within the agenda pdf page, please go to the left-hand side panel. Then click the icon of a
document, indicating the 'Document Outline.' Click 'Full Agenda.' You will see different sections
of the agenda that you can jump to. This was done to help standardize the information that is
shared with both the public and the Council and reduce confusion. If you have any questions or
suggestions, contact the City Clerk's Office at City.Clerk@CityofPaloAlto.org.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rokEi3aw1hE
Then I am EXOINERATED ON CASE C14930 22
AND THE POLICE REPORTS - ALL OF THEM - WERE FALSIFIED!!
ITS NOT ONLY FRAUD ON COURT ! but FRAID BY THE COURT AS WELL.
BECAUSE: It was THE PRESIDING JUDGE OF SANTA CLARA COUNTY , THE HONORABLE
JUDGE BRIAN WALSH WHO AUTHORISED THE FALSE REPORT , WE KNOW THIS BECAUSE IT
WAS AUHORISEDIN WRITING BY CAPTAIN RICARO URENA, HEAD OF COURT SECURITY.
HE DID SO TO SKEW THE RESULTS OF CIVIL GRAND JURY INVESTIGATION INTO THE PUBLIC
GUARDIAN and millions of dollars in federal subsidies were fraudulently procured.
SO, MR. GOODMAN, I THOUGHT YOU GUYS WERE SUPPOSED TO INVESTIGATE? WHAT
HAPPENED ?

To all-
Aretha Franklin "Think" with the Blues Brothers. 1980: This version give you alonger video, but the highs are rolled off a little.
Aretha Franklin - Think (The Blues Brothers 1980) - YouTube
Here is a shorter version, but the highs are here on this one. So, maybe watch both.

The woman in the striped top is Franklin's sister. She died of c.
The Blues Bros. Soul Man SNL 1978. As good as it gets. Someone in commentssaid that most people don't realize who is in that back-up band. Notice it sounds like it was
recorded 20 times to get it perfect? Here, they just did it perfect the first time.
Blues Brothers: Soul Man - SNL - YouTube
A different genre, perhaps, are performances of the Metropolitan Opera Co. at LincolnCenter. It was built in the late 50's or early 60's. I went a few times while I lived in New York.
Their season runs maybe October to March, so winter time. Quite an experience and Irecomment going to NYC in the winter time, if only to attend that. The lobby has marble
everywhere, and carved into the marble are the names of people who gave money to buildLincoln Center, including some famous names of monied familties. Tall windows let one see
the snow falling out in the plaza in front of the building. There is a ramp upon which limos cancome up to the entrance. Emerging from these are wealthy patrons who move through the
lobby to their (pricey) seats on the ground floor. The ermines and minks are partially hiddenby cascades of diamonds and other priceless rocks. I have a memory of these women having
to be helped to walk because of the weight of the diamonds they are wearing. Maybe Iimagined that.
Then, the performance begins.The fabulous orchestra may tune up a little first. Small
crystal chandeliers that had been lowered down to 20 feet above the floor are pulled up. Atthat time, the big gold curtains would be pulled up from the side fast and we were underway.
The sound of that orchestra!!!!!!! Just fantastic. And the famous opera performers wouldbegin their perforance. Unknowns like Luciano Pavoratti. They would not be on that stage if
they were not world-class. Sometimes the performance would involve live horses pullingcarts, carriages, etc. on stage. Combine that orchestra with the best opera talent in the world,
and you think you got your $35 worth even sitting in the very top tier. People cheer and cheerfor a great performance. Flowers are thrown onto the stage. The big names take several bows.
A memorable experience.
I believe that the above is funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts, sotaxpayer money is involved. So when you attend that, you are not really an interloper onto a
preserve of the wealthy.

Asian American jogger attacked
as new report details shocking
rise of hate crimes
COVID-19 and the delta variant are not the only pandemic America
is fighting: Crimes targeting the Asian American Pacific Islander
(AAPI) community are increasing nationwide. While xenophobia
and racism against these communities is not a new phenomenon,
there has been a rapid increase in crimes against AAPIs since the
start of the COVID-19 pandemic due to misinformation. The rate at
which these crimes is increasing is more alarming with every data
report released.
While previous reports indicated an average of 3,000 anti-Asian
incidents reported in a year, a new report released Thursday found
that despite increased national attention and political action between
March 2020 and June 30, 2021, more than 9,000 anti-Asian incidents
were reported. According to the report, the number of hate incidents
increased from 6,603 to 9,081 in the last three months of
this reporting period alone.
The data was compiled by Stop AAPI Hate, a national coalition that
became the lead on gathering data on racially motivated attacks
related to the pandemic. According to the organization, since the
coronavirus was first reported in China, people of AAPI descent
have been targeted and treated as scapegoats solely based on their
race.
"Our data clearly shows that Asian Americans across the country
continue to be attacked and that the hate incidents that we have been
tracking since March 2020 are not going away," Manjusha Kulkarni,
co-founder of Stop AAPI Hate and executive director of the Asian
Pacific Policy and Planning Council, said in a news release.
While lawmakers, activists, and community groups have constantly
pushed back against the wave of attacks, that does not diminish their
origin. Prior to President Joe Biden’s term in office, no legislation
was in place to address these crimes. Additionally, Donald Trump’s
administration consistently fueled the fire of hate by using
xenophobic terminology.
As president, Trump consistently blamed China for the pandemic,
which furthered anti-Asian sentiment already present in some
communities. His spread of COVID-19 misinformation and use of
xenophobic language like “Chinese virus,” “Wuhan virus,” and
“Kung Flu” have been connected to a rapid surge in hate crimes
nationwide. As people were forced to stay at home due to safety
measures in place, they took their frustration out on the AAPI
community, who they blamed for the virus, a report found according
to Daily Kos.
“When you encourage hate, it’s not like a genie in a bottle where you
can pull it out and push it back in whenever you want,” Kulkarni told
the Associated Press. “There’s too much perpetuating these belief
systems to make them go away.”
Kulkarni told the Associated Press that several factors contributed to
the data, from an increase in incidents to a greater desire to report.
She noted that an increase in reporting often occurs after a high-
profile incident, like the March 16 Atlanta-area spa shootings that
left six Asian women dead.
“There, too, is where we saw some that were incidents that had taken
place weeks or months before, but they just were either not aware of
our reporting center or didn’t take the time to report,” Kulkarni said.
While physical attacks have been on the rise, they are not the only
way these anti-Asian incidents have played out. According to the
report, verbal harassment and deliberate avoidance of those who
identify as part of the AAPI community make up the majority of hate
incidents. Physical assaults and being coughed at or spat on are the
second most common forms of hate, the report found. Of the
reported victims, a majority are women and the elderly.
In a recent incident, an Asian American woman running near her
home was attacked. The woman, who lives in San Francisco’s
Pacific Heights neighborhood, shared that she no longer felt safe,
adding: "I don't know where I can be safe at to be honest.”
In the horrific incident occurring on Aug. 1, the woman was left with
bruises and abrasions on her face, arms, and legs after being robbed
and then bitten by her attackers, ABC7 News reported. The attack
comes amid an increase in anti-Asian incidents in California.
According to a report released by the state’s Department of Justice,
hate crimes against Asian Americans in California increased by over
100% in 2020.
(WARNING: The Twitter thread below contains graphic violent
video, photos, and language that may not be suitable for all
readers.)
The report follows similar reports of increases in hate, including hate
crime data from the Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism at
California State University-San Bernardino. That report found hate
crimes against Asian Americans surged in 2020 in at least 15 cities,
Daily Kos reported. As the cities were further reviewed, reports
indicated that crimes against Asian Americans rose by 169% when
comparing the first quarter of 2020 to the first quarter of 2021.
The AAPI community needs our support now more than ever,
whether it be checking in on our family and friends, spreading
awareness of COVID-19 misconceptions, or contacting members of
Congress to do more against anti-Asian hate. Check out this guide on
resources and ways to support the AAPI community and our Asian
friends. Hate is the real virus, and we must end it.

Sunday, August 15, 2021
To all- This is good. After looking at the usual charts, he gets into monoclonalantibodies, which MUST BE GIVEN EARLY AFTER THE FIRST SYMPTOMS APPEAR.
ONCE THE BODY'S OWN IMMUNE RESPONSE BEGINS, IT IS TOO LATE.
He discusses Regeneron's two-drug monoclonal antibody cocktail. Two differentmonoclonal antibodies contained there.
Lilly's product only has one monoclonal antibody. Let us all fervently hope that Lilly's
product now takes off since I piled into Lilly stock some months ago. LLY c. at $264.21 onFriday, Aug. 13, 2021. I paid $142.13 for it on November 13, 2020 and $190 for it on March
15, 2021.
He seems to know that Trump was (famously) infused with the Regeneronmonoclonal antibody cocktail before they took him to the hospital with Covid. Infusion is
usually done in a hospital, but the WH was set up to do it. He did make a remarkable recoveryfrom Covid and Dr. Campbell thinks the Regeneron product was part of that.
What he does not like about it is that it costs $1,500 per infusion.

Different topic: Here is Dr. Fauci interviewed today by ABC network news about
booster shots: Seems like squishy criteria for who gets a booster: It will be people who likelydid not form a good immune response from the first two shots. It will NOT be people whose
immunity is waning slowly over time from being fully vaccinated. Why not them?
He says that all school teachers should be vaccinated before entering aclassroom. A lot of ignorant city councilmen and loudmouth
Governors won't like his saying that. Galileo was put under house arrest for angering
politicians and the Catholic church with things he said.

And to repeat. The Israelis see that the length of time between those first two shotsyou got determines how fast your immunity wanes. They used three weeks between shots,
and they see immunity waning in those people. The US used four weeks, and we seeimmunity waning in those pts. The UK used 12 weeks between shots, and they see much less
waning of immunity. So if you got two Moderna shots in January and February, 30 daysapart, like me, why would I not be in line now for a booster shot?

To all-
Dr. John Campbell in the UK, for today.
In the first 21 minutes here he goes over the studies which prove that Covid can causediabetes. Air tight case:
Covid causing diabetes - YouTube
An expert on KCBS-SF said that Covid can weaken the heart muscle, and that ispermanent.
Different topic: Here is Dr. Fauci interviewed today by ABC network news about
booster shots: Seems like squishy criteria for who gets a booster: It will be people who likelydid not form a good immune response from the first two shots. It will NOT be people whose
immunity is waning slowly over time from being fully vaccinated. Why not them?
He says that all school teachers should be vaccinated before entering aclassroom. A lot of ignorant city councilmen and ignorant, loudmouth Governors won't like
his saying that. Galileo was put under house arrest for angering politicians and the Catholicchurch with the things he said. Now Dr. Fauci is doing the same thing. Both Galileo and Fauci
are Italians. I wonder if Dr. Fauci will soon be put under house arrest too.

And to repeat. The Israelis see that the length of time between those first two shotsyou got determines how fast your immunity wanes. They used three weeks between shots,
and they see immunity waning in those people. The US used four weeks, and we seeimmunity waning in those pts. The UK used 12 weeks between shots, and they see much less
waning of immunity. So if you got two Moderna shots in January and February, 30 daysapart, like me, why would I not be in line now for a booster shot?
Note- Update on Tues. August 17, 2021- Now the CDC is recommending boostershots for those who became fully vaccinated with two shots in December, 2020 andJanuary, 2021. They are saying such persons should get a booster shot eight months afterthey were fully vaccinated. That will start with HC workers and persons in nursing homes,and then go to persons over 60 or 65. Then the general population. Should start in September,
2021.
Dr. George Rutherford, a big gun epidemiologist at UCSF, was heard on KCBS-SFsaying that there might be only luke warm uptake of the booster shot. What is the matter with
people? They don't own television sets? Here in the Central Valley of Calif., Kaweah DeltaHospital is full of ~91 Covid pts. They have no room for more. They would transfer some of
the new arrivals to other hospitals in the area, but they are full too. That is Tulare County, Calfornia where the vaccination rate has been pretty terrible. Maybe 45%. Pretty terrible in all
of the eight counties of the San Joaquin Valley. In rich, highly educated Marin County, justnorth of San Francisco, the vaccinateion rate is around 77%. Turns out that education
matters.

want Gov to declare State of
Emergency

Oakland Chinatown leaders are calling on Governor Gavin Newsom
to declare a state of emergency to address the rise in crime, CBS San
Francisco reports.
Oakland Chinatown Chamber of Commerce President Carl Chan
spoke at a press conference Tuesday alongside other Chinatown
leaders. Chan said that Oakland’s Chinatown has been hit hard with
violent crime this past year.
Chan believes the increase is partly due to “defund the police”
rhetoric. He is also concerned that the justice system is too lenient,
leaving criminals unafraid of the consequences of their actions.
“Governor Newsom, we want you to declare a state of emergency for
the city of Oakland. We want you to bring in the California Highway
Patrol,” Chan said, reading from a letter he sent to Newsom
demanding action, according to CBS San Francisco. “I’m not only
asking you for Chinatown. I’m asking you to send the police, the
CHP, to the city of Oakland; all areas. We need your help.”
There have been a number of recent attacks in Chinatown. Just last
weekend, a good samaritan was shot intervening in a robbery in
Oakland’s Chinatown. According to ABC7 the number of recent
attacks has forced businesses in the area to close early.

Philippine Consulate in NY
receives 18 reports of anti-Asian
hate
August 15, 2021
Photo by Adam Chau, AsAmNews
At least 18 Filipinos this year have reported they’ve been the victim
of anti-Asian hate to the Philippine Consulate General in New York,
reported GMA News Online.
The incidents include a Filipino nurse who just this month suffered
bruising after being attacked while distributing free face masks to
subway commuters.
That nurse who has been identified as Potri Ranka Manis was
assaulted by a couple who refused to take the mask.
The couple also is accused of telling Manis to “go back to China”
and also stealing her cell phone.
In another incident in June, a Philippine Consular Officer based in
New York reported being verbally assaulted on a train, according to
CNN.
“We don’t need you here! F**ck you! I hope you all die and
everybody on this train,” the assailant told the officer.

A new report just released this week by the hate crime reporting site,
Stop AAPI Hate, found that just over 9% of the victims have been
Filipinos, third after Chinese and Koreans.
New York accounted for 16% of all hate crime report, second only to
California with 38.6%.

To all-
Here you can at least see store closings in 2021 starting with #42 out of 114 for the
year-- so far? I can't find the link for all of 2021. See the link below for #42 to #114 in 2021.The Art Van Furniture link. Recall that some cos. have 1500 stores, so to close 400 per year
still leaves a lot. One, ~#95 on this list, Ascena Retail, has 4,000 stores, with different names.But the pandemic and on-line sales are doing dramatic things to brick and mortar stores. I find
it almost unbelievable. Some surprising names. But you do see how they all survived for solong. Read on:
I love the way American business likes to create the idea in people's minds that allAmericans are rich. Have several kids right off, don't really get to know each other, nevertake that trip to Europe or own a decent car, buy new phones for $1,100 each every three years
because the cameras are a little bit better. Buy a new car every 3 years (or, more likely, leaseone) because they changed the styling of the tail lights, or even the grill. Lots of people think
that what the world thinks of them is a function of what car they drive!! I knew an employee ata gym where he and his gf paid $180 per month to carry phones around. That's their pension
money going down the drain!! I have a $12 answering machine that catches all calls if not
here. Buy a new big-screen every three years because the pic. is slightly sharper and it canreceive a couple of more streaming services, for which they pay every month. Pay for a bigger
router to handle all of the pads and computers that everyone in the family has. Then, they are$50,000 in debt, all of it running at 23.9%. They rent. After the divorce, he'll pay child support
for all of those children till they are what, 18? All 3,000 counties in the US have a big unit intheir DA's office to extract child support payments from alleged fathers. She may well not
know who the fathers are, but he's married to her, so he is it.
In another email I give the same link from Investing.com showing store closings in2020-- 74 companies there I think.

To all-
Here is the discussion today between Fresno, Ca. Mayor Jerry Dyer and President
Biden discussing the $1 trillion infrastructure bill that passed the Senate. Mayor Dyermentions the HSR station that will be built in downtown Fresno and says we need money for
Fresno for that. I know he meant that we need some of the $1 trillion for the entire HSRsystem in Calif. In particular, money is now in hand to build HSR from Bakersfield to
Merced. Last I heard, an additional $8 billion will connect Merced to Gilroy and north toDiradon Station in San Jose. THAT segment will be pure gold for Fresno.
That segment of HSR will permit workers in Silicon Valley to get to Fresno,
e.g., in 45 minutes from Diradon Station. Google is going to build an enormous campus rightin the area of Diradon. If Fresno only gets some the Silicon Valley workers who work there
for Google, it will transform Fresno. At present, there is a humanitarian crisis in Silicon Valleywrt housing. An old, 600 sq. ft. apartment in Santa Clara goes for $3,000 per month. People
live in RVs along El Camino Real and other streets to try to avoid that outrageous cost. Theylive in Modesto and are out on Hwy 580 westbound at 4:30 AM headed for SV.
At present, $3,000 per month will buy a new house in Fresno. The first trainloadof SV engineers arriving here will raise the average educational level in Fresno by several
years. I meet adults here who have never heard of Hewlett-Packard Co. or of Silicon Valley,165 miles from Fresno. People I talk to in call centers in Guatemala know all about HP.
I imagine that SV cos. could build facilities around Fresno, and their managers could
get down here when needed in about an hours on HSR. From my house in NW Fresno todowntown Palo Alto presently takes 2 hours 45 minutes by car. So just deduct two hours from
that via comfortable HSR. Fresno is just not commutable to SV now, but with HSR, it will be.
Jerry Dyer plugs high-speed rail to BIDEN over $1T infrastructure bill - YouTube 7:48 long.
This is a good discussion. Mayor Dyer did very well, I thought, making the case to the
President for infrastructure money for the Central Valley.

Second mail on this topic put out today. All worth reading. Just unreal!
Put out by Investing. com.:
They have a vid that shows 114 companies that are closing many or all stores in 2021. I
looked at all 114 shown, but now I cannot find that put out by Investing.com.
Last Call: These Chain Stores Are Closing Locations in 2020 - YouTube
It is virtually every retailer in the US and many owned overseas. Pandemic, fewercustomers, online shopping are the two big factors cited.
Wish I could find the one with 114 Cos. again, but I cannot.
Here it is for 2020 by Investing.com 79 companies shown, and, if you can find this
for 2021, it is 114 companies.. Probably some, or a lot, of duplication since some of themclose stores in both years. There does not seem to be a back buttom, so once you go on to
the next store, you cannot go back. LH- Note. Yes, it is a LOT of duplication since the sameoutfis close stores year after year. But note, 79 companies did it in 2020 and 114 did in 2021,
so far. A COMPANY can close 500 stores!

Subject:Junction of Middlefield and Lincoln: One more accident this morning

________________________________
Dear Members of the Palo Alto City Council,
I’ve been a resident living right next to Middlefield and Lincoln, on Fulton St. for about 4 years. During that time I
have been shocked at how many car accidents have occurred at this junction. It’s mind-blowing. I have personally
been on the scene of at least four (perhaps so many I am starting to lose count).
There was another accident this morning where a vehicle either did not stop on Lincoln or did not see a vehicle
traveling south on Middlefield. I did not visually witness the accident but I heard it and went to see if I could help
(as I’ve done in other cases).
Sooner or later someone will be killed, and at some level, the City will bear partial responsibility for not addressing
the safety concerns at this junction. Since I am a resident and along with my girlfriend, taxpayers to the City, the last
thing I want is taxpayer money being spent to settle a lawsuit that I feel is partially justifiable as that junction has a
history of incidents far worse than any other nearby junction.
I think that something concrete needs to be done at this point. I personally hate to add yet more stop lights on
Middlefield, but I think that there is no other alternative, unless you want to try a roundabout (there’s probably not
enough space) ? The addition of stop lights would provide another crossing point for kids headed to Addison and
likely reduce the chance of a child being killed at this junction.
Please act before it’s too late.
Thanks.
Yours faithfully,
Andy Belk

Hello!
I urge you to make University Avenue and Ramona Street open for pedestrians and bicycles,
and closed to automobiles, PERMANENTLY. It's a matter of quality of life! It’s been sodelightful to spend more time outdoors and has led me to patronize restaurants and coffee
shops much more consistently. Especially as remote work continues to be more common, it’sso nice to be able to go work in a coffee shop for part of the day and soak in the sun. Also, as
someone who lives near University, it’s been wonderful to have the area more walkable andpedestrian-friendly. And when I do need to drive, the closed streets haven’t been a bother at all
- it’s very easy to find different routes, and the additional traffic on my street (Everett) hasn’tbeen bad at all.
Please continue these wonderful street closures permanently so that we can all continue to
enjoy the outdoor seating and pedestrian areas!
Sincerely,
Katie Windham--

Dear Ed Shikata and City Council of Palo Alto:
I am writing to ask you not to close down outdoor dining on Ramona Street next month. I have been an everydaycustomer at Tea Time for the last nine years and have established a special bond with the owner, Tim Pham…he is atrue friend.
Tea Time is a wonderful place where I can sit out under trees each morning and do my research in peace…withperfect tea. But Tea Time will not survive if it is forced to go indoors, and a very important part of my wonderfulPalo Alto life will be gone. So I ask you to please keep the street open for outdoor dining and the continuation of awonderful place that has become a “second home” to me.

Mr. Shikada and the Palo Alto City Council,
Much to my dismay I was recently informed that the City Council was considering reopeningRamona Street to vehicular traffic.This closed area is a treasure for residents and visitors alike;
perhaps more so even a necessity for the businesses on that street. In particular I have longbeen a regular patron of Tea Time which is a lovely addition to downtown Palo Alto. It is a
place where people gather to talk about their lives, businesses, and happenings over tea and adelightful selection of sandwiches, salads, savories and sweets. A menagerie of people
frequent this relaxed and beautifully decorated establishment which relies on the extracustomers and space that the closed street and parklets provide. We find ourselves in a time of
change, not just that of restriction, masks, social isolation, and hand sanitizer; but one in whichwe can also change the face of our cities, businesses, and lives by providing the people of Palo
Alto and businesses of Ramona street that which brightens their days and puts fresh air in theirlungs: an outdoor space that they can use to improve and expand their lives. Please keep
Ramona street closed to traffic so that we all may enjoy what it has to offer!
Thank you,-Nicholas A. Hodgkinson

Good Afternoon Mrs. McEntee,
Thank you for your question. Our responses to the Sunrise facility you are speaking about do often
require us to park in the lane of traffic. When we cannot safely park our fire engine or ambulance
out of traffic, we have to keep the lights on to avoid unnecessary collisions. When our lights are on,
we keep the apparatus running to ensure that our vehicle is able to return to service without a dead
battery. As you mentioned, we are often at the site for an extended period of time, which puts a
significant draw on those batteries.
All of this being said, when we can park out of traffic safely, the apparatus should be turned off and
secured. I will remind our personnel of this and ensure that they are following our policy
appropriately.
If you have further questions, please feel free to contact me.

Dear Chief McNally,
I understand you're filling in for Officer Blackshire temporarily, hence I'm writing to you
today and cc'ing Chief Blackshire and the City's leadership.
I live across the street from the Sunrise Senior Center on Sheridan Avenue and El
Camino. Sunrise has frequent emergency visits from fire trucks and ambulances. I
am alarmed that the emergency personnel leave the vehicles running while they are
inside the building attending to the emergency situations. The vehicles can berunning for extended periods of time.
Given the existential climate crisis we are facing, I want to ask: Is it possible to turn
off those motors in order to reduce the methane emissions that are causing ourwildfires, extreme heat, droughts, floods and hurricanes? Leaving the vehicles
running seems to be incredibly negligent. Can you correct the situation? If I can help
in any way, please let me know.

Hi Mary,
I’m always happy to answer further questions. In an effort to maintain an open
dialogue, I’ll go through your questions in order, and I hope these answers are helpful
to you. Please see my responses in red below:
On Wed, Jun 16, 2021 at 6:32 PM Mary Sylvester <marysylvester@comcast.net> wrote:
Hello Kathy,
I am writing pursuant to your invitation to Castilleja neighbors that their unanswered
questions from your 6/9/21 biannual meeting can be forwarded directly to you for
answering.
Initially, I would like to express my frustration about Castilleja unilaterally setting theagenda for your recent biannual meeting with neighbors as required per your 2000
Conditional Use Permit (CUP). The setting of an one-hour timeframe along with a
20 minute presentation by Nanci Kauffman about graduation and current school
operations did not meet the needs or interests of neighbor, particularly as toupdates about your expansion plan. For your information, page 2 of your 2000
CUP states, "Castilleja shall continue to initiate the scheduling of neighborhood
meetings to provide an open dialogue regarding neighborhood issues."
My unanswered questions from the 6/09/21 meeting pertain to Castilleja's proposed
garage:
1) Given that Castilleja has sufficient on-campus parking with the existing 86 spaces
now on the school site along with 54 spots on the street ringing the campus, the
necessity for the garage remains unclear. Please explain. We are not seeking to build the parking garage as a way to build more parking
than required. Instead, the garage provides an opportunity to park the majority of
the cars below grade, which is aimed to improve upon current conditions. Currently,
all parents who use cars for drop off and pick up circle around the block to utilize different driveways. The garage will divert a portion of those cars, quieting the
neighborhood streets. In addition, moving many cars that currently park at grade
(either on campus or adjacent to the school) below grade will further improve
aesthetics, noise, and quality of life.
2) Satellite Parking: The status of the current satellite parking at First Presbyterian
Church remains unclear as to current and future use. Given feedback frommembers of that church there remain a number of unused parking spaces on the
site M-F, has Castilleja made any efforts o expand your offsite parking at this or any
other location?
Castilleja employees park at First Presbyterian Church throughout the year with
a natural ebb and flow in the number of spaces occupied on any particular day. We
have not made efforts to expand offsite parking because our current proposal
includes sufficient parking to support our school and as is required by the Code.
3) Shuttling: Neighbors have noticed for years that Castilleja's electric shuttles
appear underutilized, both for students and staff. What are your plans going
forward to upgrade and enhance this service for staff and students? With sufficientshuttling, use of public transportation, biking, and satellite parking there appears no
need for an underground garage to neighbors.
While our students are in classes, passing pedestrians will notice the shuttles in our
maintenance lot, but beyond that, these vehicles are in steady use. Starting at 7:30
am until school starts at 8:30, we send them back and forth to the Caltrain station at
University Avenue. After school, another cycle begins and runs through the end of
afterschool activities. These shuttles also support our athletic teams and our
community outreach programs, so for that reason, we need several vans to be able
to move students in different directions. However, when going to one place, like the
Caltrain station, we would want to fit as many students as possible into one van,
therefore minimizing the number of trips to and from campus.
The need for underground parking and the use of shuttles are not related. We use
shuttles to keep the number of daily trips to campus below our cap. The
underground garage and surface parking are included to meet the City parking
requirements for our school. That being said, because we are required to keep our
current trip level constant, as we admit more students to the high school, we will
employ various methods to achieve that goal, which may include enhancing our
shuttle service for students and employees.
4) Environmental management: To date, neighbors have not been informed of
projected levels of pollutants that will be emitted from the proposed garage into the
neighborhood. This is a critical issue as exhaust will be released directly into public
walking spaces and residents' homes. Can you please provide the specific type of
fumes which will be released, at what levels and concentrations, at what rate and
hours of the day as well as the the type of exhaust system to be utilized?
The Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) reviewed these questions in depth and deemed the garage to be environmentally and aesthetically superior. The
garage is a greener option, reducing pollutants in the run-off because cars remain
dry on rainy days. Underground parking does not release more pollutants into the
atmosphere unless it brings more cars to the neighborhood. Because there will be
no new trips permitted to campus, there will be no new pollutants released into the
atmosphere as a result of the garage. Given that it has been 5 years that neighbors have requested information about the
need for the garage when sufficient on-campus parking exists as well as specific
information as to the environmental impacts of the proposed garage, I'm sure you
can understand our need for a thorough as well as expeditious response. Should
you not have the specifics on the environmental impacts, I'm sure one of your
project architects or environments engineers, can provide that.
I look forward to your response.
Mary, I want to acknowledge the delay in responding to you. While I normally would have responded more quickly, I have been managing a number of personal
and professional factors that prevented a more timely reply.
Best regards
Kathy

Hello Transportation Staff,
cc: City Council
Though the proposed change for the Ross Meadow Roundabout to have a 2-way stop sign
was passed by council in early 2020, and changes were done about 1 year ago, only this
week are we able to see how it operates with the combination of the traffic circle hardscape
and 2-way stop signs, with the abundance of bicyclists using that intersection.
I recommend you visit from 7:45 to 8:45 AM on a school day, to observe bicyclists and
pedestrians heading to Fairmeadow (before 8:15), JLS (before 8:30) and Gunn HS (not
many after 8:40, with a 9:00 bell time), plus high school kids walking to the bus stop, bike
commuters, and cars. I visited this morning.
As a 2-way stop, this looks badly engineered. The cross walks are pulled away from the
intersection, so the stop lines are even further back. When traffic on Meadow going West
stops at the stop line, there is very poor visibility to traffic coming from the right. Once
stopped at the stop line, you cannot tell if it is really safe to proceed.
There seemed to be as many ways to navigate the intersection as there were users. Shoulda car on Ross wait for a car already entering the intersection from their right? Should carsor bikes on Meadow actually stop? Should bicyclists take the lane and wait behind trafficwaiting to enter the circle, or just proceed past in the gap on the right. Should a bicycliston Meadow wait for a car already in the circle coming from Ross (that bicyclist, leading 4kids, yelled at the car to "stop for bicyclists", and proceeded ahead of it into theintersection.)
The saving grace is that with all this difference of interpretation, everyone slows down for
the circle, and can react to whatever they see in front of them.
The circle enables an easy left turn from westbound Meadow to Ross and then JLS via
Mayview, through Mitchell Park. That looked like a popular route. Going home, the left turn
through the circle from Meadow to Ross is going to be popular, too.
Good news is that city buses, school buses, and Greenwaste trucks all were able to navigate
the circle.
I encourage you to go out and take a look, and think about changes, markings, or usereducation that will make this operate more smoothly and safely.

STAND UP FOR SPRING STREET
At 8 AM on Tuesday, August 17, unhoused residents and community
supporters will gather at Spring and Asbury Streets in San Jose to protest the
lack of a City or County plan to house its residents who are scheduled to be
swept from their homes in the Spring Street area. At 8:45 am, they will march
and car caravan down Hedding Street to a rally on the plaza in front of the
County Building at First and Hedding Streets.
The Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) is ordering the City to clear the area to
make it safe for airline traffic. Residents are demanding that the City and
County make another location available and provide relocation assistance,
just as was done by Apple for residents of its property at First and
Component. The City is planning to crack down on Spring Street residents by
ramping up police presence and demanding that RVs and other vehicles that
people live in get registered and be moved onto street parking. Possibly
hundreds of people could have their vehicles towed, lose what little shelter
they have, and end up with nothing – if City and County officials fail to act.
Homelessness in San Jose is out of control. Even before the pandemic,
homelessness in San Jose increased by 42% between 2017-19. Every time a
tech corporation, developer, or government entity wants a piece of land, it is
the poor and unhoused who suffer the consequences.
In the richest country in the world, every human being deserves to have a
home, and when homes are not immediately available, a safe and legal place
where they can live in the meantime. Silicon Valley has the wealth to prevent
this injustice. The City and County have the land, and between Apple,
Google, the FAA, the airport, and the American Rescue Plan, there are more
than enough resources. No one deserves to be swept without recourse and to
have their vehicle or other property seized without compensation.
Please join us!

I want to alert you to a potential danger to the citizens of your city. The threat is a maie negro. aoou·
6' in height, age late 20s to 30 years, medium to heavy build. Defining feature is an unusual haircut,
kind oflike a Mr.T style with a large dyed blond cross on the back, and a smaller one on one side.
What prompted this letter was an incident last Saturday the 14m, approximately 3PM. at the concrete
park at University and Emerson. We had just listened to a band playing there and were relaxing and
snackmg. An old man walked by us and smiled, then stopped under a tree and looked like he was
checking his phone. He was about 5 or 6 feet behind the above man in question, who was seated with
his dog beside him. The man kept turning around and saying something to the old man, who seemea
to ignore him. The man got more and more excited and was talking louder and louder. The old man
looked at him like he didn't understand him. He kind oflooked German. so he actually may not have
understood him. The man eventually jumped up, and was waving his hands menacingly and screaming
something about the fact that he used to be in the military and could do all kinds of things to the old
man. The old man made no threatening moves at all, in fact, he just stood there holding his phone.
The man was screaming so much that he actually had white foam at the comers of his mouth. He was
I •
clearly threatening the old man with physical violence, saying "I could fuck you up! Make your
move!" Suddenly th~ man batted the·o.ld ~an's phone out :ofhis hand and it fell to the p;round. The . . .
man started to move toward him trying to stomp on his phone, but the old man quickly kicked it
toward himself and snapped it up before he could smash it. He just looked at the man for around 5 or 6
seconds. smiled. and walked awav. leaving the man still raving obscenities at him.
This guy is mentally unstable. If he acts this violently in an unprovoked situation, what if someone
directly messes with him? With his military training, someone could easily come to harm, or even
possibly die. It might be you. What if he's packing hardware or a blade? He obviously has some degree
of PTSD and accompanying mental and emotional issues. Is he on, or off, medication? He's an accident
waiting to happen, it's only a matter of time. Apparently it wouldn't take much. Better have those tasers
in your hands when you run into him. What would a visitor to the city think of this? It wouldn't really
reflect too weil on your ability to protect your city. I'm sure the local citizens would be most
t ~ I • • '
appreciative if threats like this were dealt with in an appropriate and decisive manner. People need to . . ( -. ~ , ~ ~
know that they're safe on their own streets, or they might as well take 'their own measures. . -
