Morning News Round-Up -- 4.15.10: The Post Office closes when?

Watch Dog thought a week could go by without a new scandal popping up in Atherton. The Marsala Home/Loan (non)Gate went away. The John John John Johns lawsuit was settled. These were supposed to be quiet times with the new blogorific Town.. but...
The Police Chief has asked the District Attorney's office to look into whether a someone in the Police Department altered the domestic violence police reoprt relative to Jon Buckheit. You remember Buckheit, he is the one that Marsala asked for money from, but more importantly to this story, he is the one that was taken from his home on suspiscion of domestic violence only to be later found factually innocent. Never a dull moment in Atherton... We do have to give props to the Town of Atherton blog - - they are on top of their game and do actually mention this story.

It is now Belmont's move in the Belmont - San Carlos inter-County civil war over fire services... and they aren't saying much... yet. They are also dealing with their own budget mess ($1.3 million)...

In a nod to NIMBYs, some folks on the Peninsula are considering whether or not to join the (Tea Party?) effort to repeal the High-Speed Rail bond... have fun with that..

That's all for today...
