Hello all,

Here is a link to an editorial I wrote regarding Courthouse Square, which was published in the Sonoma County Gazette on April 6th.

Unfortunately, it appears that "Benign? Dictatorship Reigns in Santa Rosa City Council" Jennifer, you are like a nuisance fly that can be simply swatted away. If only you had the clout of a lawyer...

+1 Actually, I'm not at all against reworking the square; I think it's ugly, I don't buy the arguments about traffic flow, and the trees don't impress me as 'nature' in their current context amidst...

Jennifer, I'd vote for you to be Ombudswoman! You are a present day Joan of Arc, leading the way with the flag of Justice for the People. Thank you for your tireless, unceasing fight for our...

Hello everyone,

We have been oh so busy! (please read our letter to City Attorney Fowler at second half of this post).

We have accessed public information from the City of Santa Rosa website. ...

The "this" I am referring to in my post is that many people, possibly most, did not know that reunifying the Square meant cutting down mature trees. The EIR does mention this but most people don't...

yes - infernal combustion engines, out. clean energy in. ABSOLUTELY. BUT AWAY FROM THE SQUARE.

AND the greater the space for PEDestrians all of us walking, sitting, playing, talking, sprawling,...

I understood Jude's comment to be referring to the fact that Santa Rosa is our biggest city in Sonoma County and Old Courthouse Square is the heart of the city. In a way, it IS the heart of the...

Hi everyone,

Quick update, as I'm hitting the hay. Please forgive any type-o's.

I just returned from the Santa Rosa City Council meeting at midnight, after being there most of the day. We...

I can understand your point (and won't stone you for it :wink:). Yes, there are much more important things in the world to be outraged by. But, for me, this is about a sense of place, and the fact...

I made this video because I love Santa Rosa, my home of 22 years. I love the beauty of our natural world,...

I'm with you, diaba! Today in Kinko's I saw this flyer (which I suspect was made by Norma)--which tells us the month and year each council member next comes up for a vote. I kept a copy and will now...

Thank you for your sharp eye & observations, Jennifer.

And don't forget this, everyone. Those 5-8 majestic Redwoods are being sacrificed to make room to construct and pave streets and parking...

I am so impressed by the good work being done on this issue. When I became aware of the City Council's misguided plan and attended a city council meeting, I was disgusted, insulted, discouraged and...

Jennifer,

You continue to surpass my original views, admiration, and respect. My only hope is that enough Santa Rosa voters will see your dedication, the call to action, and then be willing to...

Wow, Jennifer, you would make a great attorney! I feel honored to have you so passionately involved in putting the city of Santa Rosa, and the City Council on notice that some things aren't so...
