A Big Win for Taxpayers and their Orchard

Los Altos City Council Meeting, April 10, 2012

It was raining last night as I drove over to the City Council meeting and my spirits were pretty low. The council was set to announce the results of its "opinion survey" about its proposed new Civic Center Complex.

I had been one of those surveyed--for about half the call, I thought the mayor was having me on--and I found the questions to be slanted, cooked up, and designed to produce a desired outcome. I feared the worst.
