bkalvinf commented on My Breakfast House in San Carlos

We have gone to My Breakfast House multiple times and loved the food every time. It's old-fashioned style omelets, bacon, toast, just the way we like it. The owner and staff are super duper friendly too with smiles on their faces and working hard to service the customers. The restaurant i…

I applaud NDNU and Stanford for reaching this joint agreement. Everything about this deal seems both to serve short-term needs and long-term vision. As a Stanford Alum, I know the power of the commitment Stanford offers. Instead of this land becoming housing, commercial, or some other use…

bkalvinf commented on San Mateo County on the move

This just shows how the push for more dense apartment living is not supported by the market in San Mateo County. And the Pandemic also showed how density fueled the outbreak. Scott Wiener and his attempted SB50 giveaway to developers is totally unnecessary and designed not to fit a need, …

This feels like an example of thoughtful leadership by City of San Carlos Staff and Council. Perhaps the next big issue to study is whether longer-term structural changes similar to these shorter-term measures might offer economic and social benefit for businesses and citizens alike. Of c…
