I am happy to hear that San Mateo's Council is moving forward with establishing an Ordinance and policies to facilitate inventory-updating, review of proposed demos and alterations to designated historic buildings, and the creation of a citizen-based commission to help guide decision-maki…
I agree with joebob91. And a Residential Parking Program if it's a necessity to get the City's privatized enforcers to have authority to "police" the street with ticketing AND towing. We need clearly marked parking stalls for sure. Why not tackle that first??
