Position Papers
Peaceful Spaces And The Environment
In our transition to more efficient and transportation and housing, we must not forget our places of the spirit. The quiet City of Saratoga is a place that needs to be preserved and enhanced.
VTA needs to study rail on 85
Because of suburban sprawl in the South Bay with high numbers of low density, single-family units, mass transit must become competitive with the automobile by being ubiquitous and time efficient. $1 billion for rail in the West Valley is a small sum compared to $6 billion for a BART extension to downtown San Jose.
