  1. Re: Sonoma Clean Power officials will explore public ownership of PG&E utility lines

    We very much do have a choice....
    1.We can keep trusting the CA government to trust PG&E
    2. We can let this same government, that has shown an inability to manage PG&E's abuses, take over PG&E's...
  2. Re: Final Vote on Adopting the All-Electric REACH code Is Next Tuesday, November 19th

    So... you're trying to help these "low-income communities" that are effected by the extraction of fuel.... by eliminating their jobs?

    The REACH code, is not going to stop lessen, or even mildly...
  3. Re: Final Vote on Adopting the All-Electric REACH code Is Next Tuesday, November 19th

    Cows don't fart methane, they burp it. They also don't produce much without grain involved (I.E pastured cows aren't the problem). Laws would be to blame for the long transportation involved in...

  5. Re: Cottage Food Permit

    Cottage Food laws are very restrictive as to what you can produce. You're asking the county to approve a home kitchen for semi-commercial production. The only things they're going to allow you to...

  13. Re: The Barlow FAILED to protect its tenants during flood.

    So... curious. What has been the negative for the Barlow management from this event?

  15. Re: How many watering holes does Sebastopol need?

    I have wondered this question myself a couple of times.
    I'm all for letting the market decide on this, but I wonder if there's a bubble occurring in the microbrewery industry.

    They're not entirely restocked, but they have most of the basics.

    Even better when I've heard nothing of the management being held accountable for their lack of action.
    What's their motivation for even bothering trying next time?

  21. Re: Cannabis Grow on Sanders Road...

    Unless there's a specific regulation you haven't mentioned they're breaking... Good for them.
    Unsure what water usage you're talking about. It's a farm. They're plants.

  22. Re: Hospital Sale - Measure A

    Did I say that? No. Disagreeing with one thing doesn't make one an advocate for the exact extreme opposite.

  23. Re: Hospital Sale - Measure A

    How much $ did this county just waste determining the fate of a maybe 5 million dollar property? THIS is why democratic socialism sucks. No one even cared to show up for the vote.

    99.99% sure this is a scam.
    A cryptocurrency based on Gold is idiotic. Just buy gold, or the GLD ETF.

  35. Re: Berkeley passes a 25 cent fee on disposable coffee cups - Sebastopol to follow?

    It's my belief that laws banning bags, straws, whatever are rather pointless when there's nurdles making their way to the ocean. These laws are typically poorly written and don't fit many situations...
