"Only 1000 more"? I'd say we're at max now. When was the last time YOU tried to drive to the North Bayshore around 10 AM on a weekday?

Strange to see Mr. Kasperzak think so little of the trees. Wasn't he the proud mayor when the heritage tree law took effect? Isn't he the reason I can't remove the horrible but large tree from my yard?

You can remove your tree. You may need a permit first, but you can remove it.

With additional building and increased traffic, what is the city council going to do to decrease traffic on central avenue located between Moffet and Stierlin Rd that connects to Shoreline and visa versa. This is among other neighborhoods that commuters carelessly drive through each morning and night yet the City promotes it as a bike thoroughfare which kids and bicyclist use every day.
It will never happen, but I'd like to traffic minimized in the Jackson Park area.

When Linkedin won their expansion plans, they promised $40 million of public benefits, is that still happening under their stock dip and purchase by Microsoft?
When Google was rejected by the city, the city lost Google's offer of $200 million in public benefits.
Does anyone think this was the single biggest council mistake this year?
The city could have gotten both needed and innovative infrastructure upgrades and a world class company campus.
Are we now destined for more cookie cutter business parks, more traffic, without the proper additions in infrastructure? I hope someone can say I am wrong.
It would be the biggest shame if Google by piece meal gets their square footage over time, but the city lost the $200 million in public benefits meant to offset the many hardships that come with new development.

I totally agree with Lenny on this one. How about having an independent arborist inspect the trees?

Councilmembers who vote (here unanimously) for more local jobs are voting to increase the demand for and price of their own houses.
