Letters to the Editor

No development at Ace Hardware site My family and I have been living in Los Gatos for over 35 years now.  The housing development is out of control! (And overdevelopment in general.) It’s bad enough with the construction of the North 40. And traffic is horrendous, especially...

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...

Journalists seek to deliver, and society craves, fast information due to the evolution of the internet, social media and the 24-hour news cycle. But at what cost?  The Los Gatan's front-page article on the events of the Oct. 5 Town Council meeting was published in...

Your April 23 article on the Los Gatos Green project hearing reads more like a biased editorial than legitimate reporting. The petty tone directed at Commissioner Rob Stump is especially troubling. The role of the Planning Commission is to ensure that development proposals comply with...

Hello, fellow Los Gatos residents and visitors, We have a wonderful town. But dog owners who do not pick up their dog’s droppings (poop), please do not leave it on our sidewalks. Unhealthy, unkind, just wrong. So many of you do pick up after their pets...

Community Alliance: Appointment process was politically driven Leadership requires vision, competence, and integrity—qualities seemingly lacking in former mayor Maria Ristow and Vice Mayor Rob Moore. Their actions during the Planning Commission appointment process show a troubling pattern of prioritizing politics over the community’s needs. The Planning...
