Monroe and Franklin sponsored by Bernie Madoff Sagal, which had “downtown residents,” (,people living on San Tomas and El Camino, five miles away) brought in by Eric “9 jelly donut a day” Stroker to champion It. That building is now in RECEIVERSHIP. Not a single downtown project brought forth by Yogi and Booboo has ever been successful.

Two minutes after he came on. KEVIN PARK. starts bobbing and weaving. Then Park hitches with the naughty tweet king, JAY REED, who just got 10 0000 bucks from Mt.
View Los Altos High School District for special expertise. If this was so vital a vote, why would McGovern get hired? He and Reed teamed on Redwood City salt flats to drive away terns for apartments. Another failuere.

What is next, McGovern, Reed, and their other squirrels get hired to do a transit oriented development in Kabul?

Exasperation — come on.

“sharing a bathroom sink”

If there’s no bathroom, just the sink, what makes it a bathroom sink?

Santa Clara, what an interesting little city

PAL: Police Activities Lodging (a nice perk, given some women LOVE cops)

This isn’t Google in San Jose, but are there not only possible non-disclosure agreements, but politicians with real-estate ties near the train station looking for a bigger payoff if BART comes later? (I’d add an airport connector under the airport from the Santa Clara station, but San Jose interests are strongly opposed, no doubt.)

Note also that this was a possibility of VTA joining BART in straying from its transit function and mission, going into housing development (and possible speculation). It also makes one think of diversion of some of the mammoth BART-to-San-Jose-and-Santa-Clara fund acquisition without end.
