As one local plan crash continues to be investigated... another plane crash with local ties hits the news. This one left from San Carlos and ended in a crash outside of Yosemite. Albert Halluin, a Silicon Valley super lawyer and his fiance died during Friday night's flight.
Onto a lot less serious stuff...
Monday = Sue Lempert in the Daily Journal: Supervisor Mark Church's decision to run for Warren Slocum's soon-to-vacated office means that Church's seat will be open (if Church wins) and folks are lining up -- Dave Pine (San Mateo Union High School District Board), Marc Hershman (former Millbrae Mayor), Gina Papan (Millbrae Council), Ann Keighan (Burlingame Council), etc., etc., etc. Watch Dog is starting the Sue Lempert for Supervisor rumor right here, even though she denies it in her column...
Even though the financing for the Mirabella project in Foster City seems to be slipping away, the Foster City (City) Council seems to be hanging on to the idea and the project... Meanwhile, we can only imagine the good folks at the San Mateo-Foster City Elementary School District are getting excited about the prospects of the land for a new school...
Here's something new for Atherton... the City Manager and Police Chief are actually meeting with the public on Monday evening. Public outreach? Listening to the public? Being open about how thing run in town? Perhaps there won't be anymore hidden, expensive settlements or illegal fees given back to developers. Perhaps, but not likely...
The County Times wrote on Saturday about a "surprise deficit" that will force cuts in Belmont... how can such a thing be a surprise? Hasn't anyone noticed the global recession in Belmont? Perhaps not...
Not a surprise deficit, but not exactly great either, the County will eliminate 64 unfilled positions. If your resume is in the County hopper, forget about it...
Just as one local School District (Sequoia Union High School District) prepares to say goodbye to their Superintendent (Pat Gemma) another (San Carlos School District) signed their Superintendent (Craig Baker) on through 2012-13...
Instead of hiring employees to do code enforcement work, Redwood City is looking for volunteer snitches... seriously.
Here's a predictable headline from the County Times: High-Speed rail meeting in Menlo Park gets heated. Y'think?
For those of you waiting anxiously for the Half Moon Bay "Rock the Block" party in 2010... you might have to wait until 2011, or never. The 2010 Rock the Block celebration got canceled due to lack of sponsors...
