COPPER GUTTERS--Measure K's Red Herring
;)
The core theme of the argument presented by proponents of Measure K is that the Ellis Creek Water Recycling Facility is "overbuilt, over engineered, and over designed." To correct this situation, they argue that the rates should be reduced as provided in Measure K.

It's another election season in Petaluma as evidenced by the calendar and the sprouting of campaign signs throughout the city. As the season advances, campaign mailers and door hangers will descend upon us with increasing frequency.

PHOTO HUMORS...(Fun Pixs)
;)
The Happy 150th Birthday Petaluma Card presented by Igor & Ivan more or less represents the last word on the "traditional" topics (shopping carts, vandalism, graffiti, trash, etc.) covered on this blog. Quite simply, there is not much more to say on those particular aspects of Petaluma life.
The above notwithstanding...

About this blog
Frank Simpson
Frank Simpson is a community observer who comments on scenes or conditions in Petaluma's public areas, streets and neighborhoods. Occasionally, articles are written by (or about the adventures of) The EVEL Twins (Triplets?): Boris--Frank's EVEL Twin and ACE PINS Photographer; Igor--Boris' EVEL Twin & The Real Prince Of Darkness; and Ivan--The Source Before Darkness & Light. The EVEL Twins are sometimes joined by ZELDA--The Real Queen of Mean. Recently, the Twins (two plus one) and Zelda packed their bags and "caught the last train for the coast"...never to be heard from again. However, they do check in from time to time. Fortunately, the Petaluma Fowl & Wildlife Consortium has stepped in to fill the void created by their departure.
