[Sosfbay-discuss] Meeting tonight

[Wes Rolley]

I was just looking for something else in the SJ Mercury News editorials 
today when I came accross an item of local interest.

http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews/news/opinion/16167165.htm

The headline, "Decision on use of greenbelt will test power of 
lobbyists" points to the key fact of local politics.  The development 
lobby seems to have their way with almost all local planning, no matter 
what staff might say.  This case is in the Almaden Valley area of San 
Jose, but it could be in any of our communities.

Is this a GP-SCC issue?  Do we want to establish some involvement in 
local politics? on not?

Not necessarily an agenda item, but something to think about.
