Ventress Totally understand your frustration. I continue to email Jim and use the button at the…Read More bottom of the front page to send comments about problems with the new format to the tech team. I suspect they don't care unless they are made to care. Brent really took Patch to heart and responded to every person as if they were all important. That is part of what made him such an exceptional editor. So far Jim has contacted me twice, once to chastise my use of the word terrorist and then to correct my spelling of Pat Eklund's name. I added a "c". I am not sure how to bridge the gap with the new guys but have not given up entirely due to the encouragement from Pete and Joe. They have renewed my belief that the news is for everyone and we mustn't allow trolls to take over.

Joe- sorry you feel that way, but it is due diligence when people are concerned about blighted…Read More neighborhoods and are trying to find solutions in fixing them. One reason that the Whole Foods Market and 125 units were built was that many people wanted to cover over what they saw as blight and some did not care what was built on that site. The same thinking was at the old hospital site by some stating that anything was better than what was there , considered as blight. The point is that in the process the developers were contacted and made changes in design and density of those properties and the surrounding properties seem to have maintained their values or increased. The designs and densities are debatable. Last night at the meeting with the owners of the Shell station of the Novato Square property, they were interested in the fact that at the bus stop and at the Novato Square annoyances from autos and people are disturbing to property residents. The residents want to make sure that the new design for the Shell station will add to and not detract from the neighborhood. They are interested in finding solutions for maintaining the area, including property values, which go up in well-kept neighborhoods over time in Marin. Please join a group and help with finding solutions for maintaining and improving on Novato’s vision of a rural, suburban, friendly, safe, educated, tolerant, and family oriented hometown to 53,000 people and visitors.

Why do you block some people but not others? Are you being told by someone to stiffle the people who oppose AH? I oppose AH. Am I next?
