Letters to the Editor

Dear Editor, I'm writing to share my personal opinion (and not speaking in my role as a Planning Commissioner). It looks like you got your facts wrong in the May 7 edition of the Los Gatan. Throwing Mary Badame and Matthew Hudes under the bus...

Recent commentary about the renovation at La Rinconada Country Club has raised understandable questions—and, unfortunately, some misconceptions—about what is actually taking place on our grounds. As stewards of a property with nearly a century of history and deep roots in the Los Gatos community, we...

The recent Los Gatan article describing a scary chapter in Los Gatos history by Alan Feinberg jumped from the horrific 1960s plan to raise the Almond Grove District to the creation of the Almond Grove Historic District in 2008. Unfortunately, this entirely omitted the several...

I am a lifelong Los Gatos resident and an active member of our community, including serving as vice-president of the Los Gatos Morning Rotary and other community groups. I am very involved in mental health education and advocacy, including serving as co-chair of Santa...

One simple, shortened response from a mom of three former child student-athletes, now college/graduate school adults: Staph. Constantly recurring. Don't go there. Very truly yours, Denise Donnelly Los Gatos >The op-ed discussed the issues around astroturf, which...

I am writing concerning your article about town father John W. Lyndon, which appeared in the April 2-8 Los Gatan. John Lyndon was not born in Vermont, even though he often said that was the case. He was actually born circa 1836 in St....

Candidate profile one-sided About Dinah Cotton’s article “An afternoon meeting with a prospective Congressman” Just read your Evan Low article.  Very one sided considering the activities Low took to keep a recount from happening. His main contributor appears to be PG&E; his packing of the democrats’ vote to...

Dear Editor, A heartfelt thank you to the Town of Los Gatos for supporting the "Los Gatos, My Home" public art contest organized by Omniware Networks. The contest received many responses, with diverse submissions that captured the unique charm of Los Gatos. Each piece captured its...
