I’d love to see more coverage on the local LGHS girls tennis team. This has been a dramatic season for them with a group of highly competitive (and highly ranked) players vying for the CCS championship. A great team where it sounds like the team came...

Why aren’t veterans a priority? I recently attended the Los Gatos Town’s strategic planning meeting, and noticed a conflict. Under the goal of Fiscal Stability, “Sell or Lease Certain Town Properties” is listed; yet under the goal of Civic Engagement, “Community Engagement” is listed. As the Town...
