This is truly a race against time, but many potential victims remain unaware of the threat. In approving the coastal permit, the California Coastal Commission (CCC) put in a condition that requires Edison to evaluate sea level rise in 2035. We are asking the CCC to take the initiative and request an analysis for conditions that may require moving Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) to higher ground. The time has come, sooner than expected and we can’t afford to wait for another decade or more to pass. The planning must begin now. You can help by signing our petition here, which is already well underway. We can’t wait until 2035 to re-evaluate sea level rise, as the permit currently is written.

The United States must make clear to Netanyahu that we will not provide another dollar to support his inhumane, illegal war.

Many of us are watching with horror the severe humanitarian catastrophe unfolding in Gaza. Unfortunately, too many of my colleagues in the House of Representatives and US Senate are choosing to ignore this reality and evade their congressional responsibilities.

Let’s be clear: what’s happening in Gaza is not just some unfortunate tragedy taking place thousands of miles from our shores. The United States provides Israel with $3.8bn in military aid every year, and the bombs and military equipment that are destroying Gaza are made in America. In other words, we are complicit in what is happening.

And what’s happening is unspeakable.

Please note that on Monday, February 12, the City will hold a public hearing in city hall on changes to parking rules and modifications in the city’s Municipal Code (see official notice below).

This then is a brief account of the city’s newest effort to reduce street parking and the California Coastal Commission’s (CCC) reactions. What the city wants to do is anathema to many people, reduce parking and parking requirements. But, the Coastal Commission’s recommendations can only be described as impractical.

This City Council is proposing adoption of the CCC’s modifications. First what the city has done, then the CCC recommendations.
