Some elected officials in San Mateo are taking paycuts (hint: Jerry Hill) while others are getting raises... (Thank you for the press release Nathan. For the rest of you media-relations types, here is our email.)
And some are committing crimes…
Daly City Councilwoman Maggie Gomez is in the hot seat… San Mateo County District Attorney's Office has filed 12 counts of felony insurance and workers' compensation fraud. Her only defense thus far: “If you put something like this in the paper, I suggest you take the time to make sure it's true.” It is kind of awesome when there is a mug-shot of an elected official in the newspaper...
Jurors heard the final stage of closing arguments Tuesday morning in the trial of a man accused of fatally shooting East Palo Alto Police Officer Richard May in 2006.
County officials are trying hard to restrict firearms and ammunition dealers. Good plan considering 113 San Mateo County residents under the age of 21 were killed by gunfire between 1991 and 2007.
Burlingame voters will decide whether to renew a $180-parcel tax for schools. Trustees have made it clear that not passing this would be devastating…. does that ring a bell?
More homes + more cars = more traffic… in San Mateo.
Menlo Park residents are accusing Police of stepping up parking patrols to garner more money for the City during this recession. One small detail… the City collected about $253,000 from parking tickets last year but only $227,000 in 2008-09. Maybe the SUVs are fitting into the spaces a lot better this year...
And the recount has arrived… El Granada resident and Granada Sanitary District Board candidate Lisa McCaffrey is requesting a recount in the Nov. 4 election. The rumor that Kevin Spacey is on his way to the County Building is untrue...
