Great. Glad to see that she is wiling to serve. The position does not pay much.

I’m tired of talk about “preserving” anything. Build more housing and it will be more affordable. Any candidate that doesn’t advocate flooding the market can go away.

She also organized the protest that marched down El Camino and then sat in the San Antonio intersection

Talk about a desperate attempt to remain relevant and in a position of power.....

Quick question, Greg: how did your city council run go? Sounds like you're still trying to stay relevant...

How about preserving the quality of life of long term residents by preventing RVs from parking in front of their houses and turning local parks into squalor?
Eagle park is looking better now but Rengstorff? And it’s precisely on the side of town where lower income residents live!

@Kyle ML: So true. Our City Council on Tuesday approved the massive Google Landings office development in North Bayshore with no housing. Our advocacy group, the Mountain View Coalition for Sustainable Planning, asked the City Council to postpone the decision until the Shorebird Master Plan by Google with 2,400 to 2,600 homes could be approves. We said no more office without a firm commitment to building housing. What did our City Council do? It voted 7-0 for this large office building without any formal commitment to build housing. I don't know what Sally Lieber's position would be, but I'm very tired of the status quo decision making process. I want to vote for candidate who willing to buck the status quo!

The headline mentions this "crowded race" but I see no mention of other candidates in the story. What crowd might we be talking about?

I agree no RV's in front of homes. But/and - I prefer to see parked RV's rather than tents by sidewalks. The no parking signs on Independence and Leghorn should come down so that this low impact commercial area could be again used as a valid place for RV's to park. A complete ban on RV's like the current council wants will bring us desperate people in tents. If they have low income part time jobs and no car for transportation, moving is risky - if the RV's go, the tents will come.
