Pomeroy The residents of Pomeroy Avenue won a major victory this week due to the diligent research of Council Member Kathy Watanabe and earnest efforts by Pat Mahan, Debi Davis, and Mayor Gillmor to maintain their neighborhood by rejecting a bad proposal for developing the area. Watanabe and Davis deserve praise as does Mahan and Gillmor. I will give Hossam Haggag congratulations and a hand of support for winning the Clerk election. It is important for residents to give accolade to Davis and Watanabe for doing the right thing, and heartfelt gratitude to Gillmor and Mahan for continuing their decades long efforts to preserve the neighborhoods. As for Teresa ONeill, the words of Whittier's "Ichabod" suffice.   James Rowen

After the Election The Thirty Years War was one of bloodiest and most savage wars in human history. Peter Wilson wrote that the tragic thing about our times is that the same attitudes that caused the war, and fueled it bloody decade after bloody decade, exist today. People who believe their sense of justice is the only one worth respecting. By now, a mayor, two district council members, and a city clerk would have been elected. Everyone should hope these people so chosen will have a sense of leadership and a respect for tolerance. There are challenges ahead. One lobbyist, a person who has worn out his welcome in San Jose, but demands all city officials follow his direction, three unethical council members, and a buffoonish blogger, think they run the city. Hopefully the victors will realize that the voters run the city.   James Rowen

Land and Water Conservation Fund Renewal Dear Editor: America’s most successful conservation and recreation program expired on September 30. The Land and Water Conservation Fund was first passed in 1965 and has always enjoyed bipartisan support. It has funded local projects like the expansion of Arastradero Preserve and the development of Los Gatos Creek Park. In total, LWCF has funded more than 1,600 projects across California, including baseball fields, hiking trails, wildlife refuges, and more. Congress needs to get with the program and renew the Land and Water Conservation Fund, which has done so much here in Palo Alto, as well as throughout the country.   Sincerely, Diana Cuevas Policy Intern, Environment California
