The Garbage Saga starts a new chapter soon... The new (controversial) garbage contract is due to start in January 2011, but today's story in the Daily Journal suggests that talks are in the works for Recology (the new guys) to take over the contract early from the Republic/Allied Waste (the old guys). Interestingly, Recology provided no comment to Michelle Durand for the story...
If there is one thing in San Mateo County that is certain to cause drama, it is a new (or redesigned) Safeway. (Think Burlingame...) Safeway has big plans for their Millbrae location -- including a two-story store and underground parking. Don't worry y'all, the mural will stay intact.
Speaking of Burlingame's Safeway, the Daily Journal said it best in their headline: At last -- Safeway nears approval. Those Safeway people have been busy here lately...
The UN Climate Change party (?) was preceded by UNICEF's 2009 Children's Climate Change Forum, and Chloe Songer from Menlo-Atherton High School was there... cool.
If you like to skateboard (or smoke) in Courthouse Square in Redwood City -- you better find a new place to hang out... new rules will ban both and require new fees and permits if you want to rent it out.
The California Coastal Commission isn't listening to the our County folks. They rejected all of the recommendations put forward for the Midcoast Local Coastal Program by the County.
Today is Sue Lempert's day in the Daily Journal. Topics: Jan Fraser (the new head of the County health system) and the correct pronunciation of San Mateo's Jan Epstein and Fred Hansson.
