		<description><![CDATA[Relatively quick and surprisingly uneventful.
First up was a study session on the reuse of Onizuka.  I&#8217;m a little hesitant to characterize the meeting, since no votes were cast.  But the prevailing sentiment seemed to be that the idea of turning it into an auto mall is now a non-starter.  There was real opposition to the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is gonna be a fun one.
We start the evening with a study session to review the consultants&#8217; recommendations regarding reusing Onizuka as an auto mall.  This includes a 250-page study.  I imagine there will be some interesting public input.
No special orders, but we do have a special presentation on the 2010 Census, [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve gotten emails and had conversations with people about the Bell situation, and everyone is asking &#8220;could it happen here?&#8221;.  I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s a Merc/Sun article talking about a recent rash of postal carrier dog bites in Sunnyvale.  If you&#8217;ve got a dog (or even a very large cat&#8230;), give it a once-over.  Treating our postal carriers well would be a good thing, after all&#8230;

We started with a proclamation recognizing Lakewood and Cherry Chase, which were designated California Distinguished Schools. It&#8217;s nice to see our schools being recognized for their accomplishments.
Then came the consent calendar.  A colleague pulled 1H from the calendar, and the rest was passed 7-0.  [...]]]></description>
