Great that the Palm Drive District has voted to 'self dissolve'. Let's hope this happens very quickly, as they are still spending $40K/month of taxpayer money on overhead that has no benefit to...

The issue is that West County taxpayers are paying $400K/year for an entity that has nothing to do with the hospital anymore. The hospital is sold, gone, private, out of our control. Continuing to...

The hospital is under private ownership now and, most of us believe, unlikely to ever operate as anything but a profit making organization. Palm Drive Health Care District knew this when they sold...

I may not be an expert. I'm just a retired CPA, taxpayer, concerned citizen who sees that PDHCD has no further legitimate reason for operating. And that $140K seems 'lucrative' for a part time job...

If you go to http://sonomalafco.org/, you'll get a vague idea of what LAFCO is/does. I believe all CA counties have them to 'oversee' all the 'special districts' in each county. Our LAFCO (7 members...

Let's see.....we taxpayers paid for this opinion but we aren't allowed to see it. Does this seem like there are things they don't want us to see about how they plan to spend more of our money? I hope...

If anyone (registered to vote in Seb./Occcid./Graton) would like to sign, I'd be happy to bring a petition to you. Just contact [email protected].

$100 million down the drain, for a...

Every single person I've spoken with who lives in the 'district' strongly favors immediate dissolution. People are shocked that the 'district' has the gall to continue wasting our money on staffing...

Taxpayers are going to be furious if we're asked to spend money to recall one of the best supervisors. Nobody doubts Stuart is righteously angry about the filth near his home, but the ad hominem...

The hospital is now sold. The Palm Drive Health Care District (PDHCD), which was the organization that operated the...

Seriously? Lynda is probably the smartest, hardest working supervisor. She may not be perfect but let's be realistic....nobody knows how to solve the homeless problem and the housing problem and the...

This problem isn't going to go away at any cost the county is going to be able to reckon with. If we build housing for the homeless, the cost is going to be prohibitive (remember the $133K tiny...

Is there any hope for honest reporting and informed citizens when the mainstream media is owned by parties of interest and the internet is teeming with garbage, fake and unsubstantiated 'news'? It...

Thank you for this response to another ignorant, insensitive, inflammatory, double edged upchuck from the Russian backed slime bag occupying our White House.

I agree. Please, if you can, go to the city council meeting on June 4th. I think the president of Madrone Audubon will be there and probably Veronica Bowers from Native Bird Care and Conservation....

Happy to come hear your thoughts on the GND. I feel pretty pessimistic about any mega scale plan brought to us by either business or gummint. The priority for both is spinning a plan the public will...

Very nice way to suggest discontinuing the use of RoundUp. Just wish this 'progressive' county would just outlaw it. But our supervisors are deep in the pockets of the grapists who do, indeed, almost...

https://www.waccobb.net/forums/waccobb/keep90days/2019-03-10_14-11-06.pngThis is moving into another big....but much more clear issue....how we vote. I worked the polls this year to gather more info....

I hope the true believers and optimists about small government decision making are right. My bet is on the 'smart' money taking over the no-longer-a-hospital to wring out what they can at the lowest...

Have you wondered why the PD has virtually ignored the pushback against Cannabis production in the county? For those who don't know Darius Anderson's and his brother Kirk's stories, the following...

I think most of us don't want the character of West County to be whipsawed by whatever the big money is in. We are fed up to our eyeballs with wine and all its bullshit. And we can see that, unless...

What a puerile pile of overwrought rubbish to suggest that people in this county are naive about cannabis. This isn't 1920. Most of us are well acquainted with the substance and the issues. We voted...

This is not business as usual. We don't know what this is going to become. But we do know this is not food and it's not grown outdoors. It's something 'recreational' with the potential to have a...

Looks like a cockapoo (?). Very sweet and well cared for, but no tags or collar. We searched the neighborhood but couldn't locate the owner. She has a microchip but the 2 numbers are not valid. She...
