Morning News Round-Up -- 5.15.09: Drive to Work Day...

We are a little late today... apologies. We are blaming it on the CalTrain incident yesterday.

It was too good to be true... the San Carlos decision to lay down artificial turf (after 10 years of discussion) will head to court. Sounds like another decade of fighting, and huge legal bills, are on the horizon...

The State is screwed. That shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. But they are looking everywhere to raise money... and our local representatives in Sacramento, including Senator Leland Yee and Assemblymember Jerry Hill, are worried. The Cow Palace might be sold as part of State sale of land... Local governments are about to get pillaged too... Nobody is happy and this won't be good, especially with the Propositions (probably) going down in flames...

In an (un?)related note, another day, another Superintendent hitting the road. This time, San Carlos Elementary School District got word from Steven Mitrovich that he's heading out.

Speaking of the Lee/Hill gang, their Half Moon Bay Bailout Bill may be in jeopardy... as this bill goes, so goes HMB's finances...

Foster City's Hillbarn Theatre is on the ropes... they need $150K. Can you help?

Redwood City Elementary School District actually has a measure on the ballot next Tuesday... the Daily Journal wants you to vote Yes on E...

If you frequent downtown San Bruno (or can even find downtown San Bruno on a map), you should attend a public hearing on the topic this Saturday...
