Alana commented on Homes on fault line proposed
Yes believe it. SSF will put housing just about anywhere, even in areas that SFO considers unsuitable, like the project on Noor and Huntington, on the border of San Bruno at the old vacant theater. The airport deems this area decibel level above acceptable levels for homes, yet 342 dwelli…
Alana commented on Input sought for South City development plan
The community believed the city council the night they unveiled 'their' plans, NOT the community's. This council tells us we have to build, yet won't tell us the minimum the state allows for that site because then they can't find a developer. So they sell us out and give the city manager a raise.
Alana commented on Business tax weighed to clear South City traffic
Since the city manager came on board, almost 5 years ago, its literally been a wrecking crew to hit this little quiet sleepy town. Our city council loves him, but the people don’t. He’s raised trash fees, hotel fees, sales tax, anywhere he can raise a fee he’ll do it. He’s bloated our sma…
Alana commented on Tax approval for schools easier under new bill

Alana commented on South San Francisco development moves forward

Alana commented on Possibly illegal PR for Measure W
I can attest to being misled by SSF Measure W in 2015. It's ONLY half a penny we were told by the city council. They've already spent the money in 3 years it has been collected for a Civic Campus not the 'potholes' we were told would fix which was already funded by Measure K.

Alana commented on Editorial: No on Measure W
I don't want to pay 9.75% sales tax, but that is what working families, working poor, student that don't make the median salary in San Mateo Co. are faced should Measure W pass. I'll continue shopping in San Francisco where they face prop C --a tax increase to businesses to pay for their h…
Alana commented on Report says Bay Area roads worst in nation
Hikertom, its a YES on Prop 6, to repeal the State legislature's passing of the gas tax and car registration fees. So City passed a measure W locally to fix the same potholes , and if the county's Measure W passes, our local sales tax with zoom up to 9.75% ! The cost of living already high …
