Could our city commission make it any harder to drive the I-25 business loop? First the three-ring-circus roundabouts and now a “road diet” obstacle course downtown.
I am posting a link to an article on why we have Medicare, how private health insurance attacked Medicare, how Medicare Advantage turned Medicare into private profit at the expense of patient health, and the probable end of Medicare under its new director. I add my opinionated comments
Several thousand people in Sierra County receive Social Security checks every month. Elon Musk's DOG-es retrieved personal information from Social Security's computer system. A court ordered that breech of government security stopped. In response, Social Security threated to shut the whole system down. Now the Commerce Secretary has weighed in.
The President's attack Dog-e often mentions that he has Asperger Syndrome. What does this actually mean, and why should we think about it?
Want to put a single-family dwelling less than 500 square feet on your lot? The city commission just made it a lot easier, even though it's not allowed in city code.
Over the next three years the city will take on about $45 million in water projects.
The state has reopened the comment period on its draft Rules and Regulations on Regional Water Security Councils. This article explains what this means, why it is important, and why we should all engage in these new entities of grass-roots self-government. Bottom line: water is your life.
This posting continues my analysis of the federal government's cost cutting actions by looking at the harm done to two native American universities and their students as a result of indiscriminate and across-the-board firings of staff that threaten their accreditations as universities.
With Trump cutting federal funding, T or C's usual go-to source, Colonias funding, may dry up. What if we have to pay for critical repairs ourselves, with no grant money?
I compare the weekly Kingston demonstration against federal governmental actions with the County Commissioners' Resolution against federal governmental actions relative to the concept of First Amendment's protection of speech.
Hooray! It's been nearly five years since the city cancelled a contract with an IT company that streamed city commission meetings on a city YouTube channel, which was the only format one could hear what was said. Hopefully new equipment will fix onsite and streaming communications problems.
The city, by law, must have a certified level-three water and level-three wastewater operator on staff or under contract.
