Councilmember Urban Carmel struck a cautionary note, saying the city’s affordable housing trust funds are needed for its 45-residence project on Hamilton Drive. Carmel also said the trust has to meet with the city’s Housing Advisory Committee, which would issue recommendations to the council. ā€œSigning the MOU, I’m certainly in favor,ā€ he said. ā€œIt doesn’t commit the city to anything, but shows that the city is very interested in the CLT and wants to make sure the CLT succeeds.ā€

PG&E Hosted an Open House for Mill Valley Customers at the Mill Valley Community Center on Thursday, May 15. It Didn’t Go Well.

Staffers put up easels and posters on topics ranging from safely digging on one’s property to safer power grids.Ā But in the lobby, residents whose homes overlook a big power station had their own easels and posters to protest PG&E’s local track record. Gary Batroff pointed to before-and-after photos of PG&E’s Alto substation on a bare hill above Hauke Park.
