Other cities have ended up in court
Two cases that might affect an attempt by Palo Alto to ban RVs
BY BRADEN CARTWRIGHT
Berkeley The Proposal: City wants to remove an encampment of tents, RVs and makeshift structures. Lawsuit: The Berkeley Homeless Union sued city. Judge: City can clear the encampment if the homeless are offered protections and accommodations. The city can tow RVs that impede traffic or threaten public safety.

Two ongoing court battles about how cities regulate RV dwellers have implications for Palo Alto, where residents and business owners are pushing for a citywide ban. Cities that have successfully regulated RV dwellers, like San Francisco, are offering low-cost housing and other assistance to get them out of RVs, City Attorney Chris Jensen told Palo City Council on Monday. “So it looks like you’re trying to solve [See RVs, page 14]

Trevor Reed Nelson
¢ August 15, 1934 – August 26, 2026 ¢ Trevor Reed Nelson passed away in the wee hours of Wednesday morning, August 26, 2026, from a long illness. Trevor was born on August 15, 1934, in Schenectady, N.Y. Due to his father, Walter Nelson’s work in Electronics Engineering, he moved to Connecticut, Indiana, Michigan, California, Tennessee, back to Michigan to the old family home, and then to California where he graduated from El Cerrito High School in 1952. He traveled throughout Europe 3 times, the first being when his father was studying at the Sorbonne in France. Being in Europe gave him the opportunity to visit his relatives in Denmark. He attended MIT on a joint program at Reed, where he studied philosophy and physics as a Sophomore and Junior and finished out at MIT, graduating with a Bachelor of Architecture in 1959. After college Trevor came back to Berkeley, first working for several years at a job shop that gave him a wide variety of experience. Trevor worked at Memorex as the Corporate Architect, architects Cobb and Morton in Los Gatos, Takamoto and Krinard in Los Altos, and EHR and CAS in Palo Alto. He then went into business for himself, designing production facilities for HP and other Silicon Valley companies. He designed a house on Mount Hamilton for Rex Lindsay in 1960 and a house for Phil Conley at Sea Ranch in 1970. He did a number of residential remodeling projects with his contractor friend Patrick Heaviside.

Opinion
Daily Post Monday, August 31, 2026
Campaign ads
Dear Editor: Dave Price’s Aug. 25 column reports that political campaign material appeared in Schoology, a district resource for students. That is accurate, and it should not have happened. The district received a complaint about the material early on Friday, Aug. 21. We reviewed it and removed the material the same day, before the close of business. Two items were removed, one referencing a school board campaign and one referencing a city ballot measure on the Cubberley sales tax. Both were removed for the same reason and under the same rule. Recipients we were able to identify were notified and provided the corrected resource. The district has opened a review under its complaint procedures and is examining how the material entered a district resource and what changes are needed to prevent it from happening again. School Board Policy 1160 states that district resources shall not be used to disseminate campaign literature. That applies to candidates and to ballot measures, including measures in which the district may have a financial interest. The district has not taken a position on any measure on the November ballot. Any board position on a ballot measure would be considered at a public meeting. PAUSD does not endorse any candidate for its Board of Education. Jason Glass Superintendent, Palo Alto Unified School District
tion that candidate Linda Henigin favors the status quo, while her two opponents are the “reformers” in the race. I don’t think so. The status quo is entering into labor contracts that will result in tens of millions of dollars in deficit spending and hundreds of layoffs. It’s also a radical lack of transparency, leaving the public in the dark about major fiscal and personnel decisions. I haven’t heard Henigin support this status quo. On the other hand, her opponents have received donations from Board Vice President Rowena Chiu and are closely allied with each other. Given the status quo, I hope everyone running is a “reformer,” but certainly Henigin seems more independent of the current board majority. Ken Dauber Palo Alto
Critique is critiqued
Dear Editor: In last Monday’s Daily Post, LaDoris Cordell was right to question Palo Alto School Superintendent Jason Glass’s competency regarding his conflict of interest and recommended he “undergo training.” However, competency is a relative term, and it’s wise to look inward before accusing others of needing it. Cordell, a retired judge, investigated the alleged misconduct of San Mateo County Sheriff Christina Corpus and issued a report. Corpus’ legal team hired former Riverside County judge Burke Strunsky to critique Cordell’s report. According to a story in the Post on April 25, 2025, Strunsky wrote: “... every interview was conducted off-camera, not in person, unrecorded, and Dear Editor: Dave Price writes undocumented; every credibility judgabout the PAUSD school board elec- ment rests exclusively on Cordell’s
About ‘reformers’
COMPUTER DRAMA?
Dear Editor: Our Palo Alto City Council should immediately suspend expenditures to consultants regarding railroad grade crossings, and then reconsider viaducts. Caltrain has announced that without the half-percent sales tax measure in November, they will have to cut back or even eliminate service entirely. A recent California High-Speed Rail Authority budget indicates that the Gilroy to San Jose section is as yet an unresolved multi-billion dollar project. So, the primary driver of grade separations, increased rail traffic, might never happen. In the opinion of a recent Palo Alto City Council member, funding for the $1.5 billion project would not occur in the foreseeable future. Altogether, any further expenditures on consultants may be totally wasted for a project that may never occur, and should be suspended until at least 2027. If and when design work would restart, the viaducts option should be reconsidered at the top of the list. Viaducts will: be much less expensive; be less disruptive during construction; less risky in terms of cost and schedule; avoid property acquisitions; maintain the current good vehicle traffic flow; avoid flood risk; and avoid underground utility relocations.

Dear Editor: You can always tell when it is election time in Los Altos. The “respected community groups,” dormant since the last election, raise their voices in support of the city position on measures and candidates. The first to pop up is Los Altos Community Voices, comprised of a downtown property owner, a relative of a Los Altos commercial property owner, a proponent of the theater on a parking lot, and a chamber of commerce member. Perhaps more a hollow web site than representative of a broad swath of Los Altos residents. The target is Measure D, intended to allow residents to determine the fate of the downtown parking lots. Clearly this measure is not in the best interest of the city and the developers, so it is a bad idea. Or if you are a resident, and like to park above ground on a treelined parking lot, it might be an OK idea. I can hardly wait for the rest of the eight to 10 “respected community groups” to reawaken from their long slumber to attack Measure D in whatever way they can cobble together. They all operate in beautifully coordinated lock-step, but since they share many of the same members, this should not be too surprising.

Lost fares The new Clipper system cost over $600 million from Cubic Transportation Systems. Cubic is working to update the software, and Caltrain is reviewing the financial impact of lost fares, Caltrain spokesman Dan Lieberman said in an email on Aug. 13. “Caltrain wants to make sure customers who have paid their fares are treated fairly, so staff will not cite or remove customers when they cannot confidently confirm fare status,” Lieberman said.

Artificial sweetener tied to heart attacks THE SCIENCE OF EXERCISE: Vo2 max, heart rate variability, and why it matters.
Jason Tso, MD
Clinical Director, Sports Cardiology Clinical Assistant Professor Division of Cardiovascular Medicine Stanford University School of Medicine
Tuesday, September 8th • 4-5 p.m. Join us for a free presentation at HeartFit For Life.
An ingredient found in everything from sugar-free foods to oral care products has been linked to higher risk of having a stroke or heart attack, Newsweek reports. A study presented at the European Society of Cardiology Congress found that people with higher blood levels of xylitol, an artificial sweetener, were more likely to experience major cardiovascular events than those with lower levels.
Sugar alcohol The sugar alcohol is often used as a substitute for sugar in foods, drinks and dental products. While it occurs naturally in the body and in some foods at very low levels, it is frequently added to products in much larger amounts.
People think that artificial sweeteners are healthier than sugar and they are regarded as safe by regulatory agencies, said presenter Dr. Marco Witkowski from Charite University Hospital in Berlin. The study adds to a growing body of research examining artificial sweeteners and their possible effects beyond calorie reduction. More studies needed “Our long-term findings in the general population highlight how little we know about the cardiovascular safety of xylitol and indicate that further studies are warranted, especially as the amount of xylitol in products continues to increase,” Witkowski said.

the problem rather than target people,” Jensen said. Palo Alto residents, frustrated with RV dwellers crowding streets, have said they’re considering a citizen’s ballot initiative to ban RVs if council doesn’t take action. “Every time the city tries to determine where RVs should be accommodated on Palo Alto streets, another group of residents or businesses is being asked to absorb the impact,” restaurant and hotel owner Stephanie Wansek said in an email to council. Council last Monday voted to permit around 60 RVs at the edges of the city but didn’t address areas where RV dwellers are most concentrated in south Palo Alto. No legal guidance Jensen told council that ongoing lawsuits create uncertainty, and there’s no definitive law that says what Palo Alto can do. “One real risk is that the city winds up in a situation where it’s the court, and not necessarily this council or this community, that decides how we regulate people living in vehicles in public spaces,” Jensen said. The cities of Sebastopol and Berkeley have waged years-long legal battles over their rules for RV dwellers.
NEWS sue, 65, who said he can no longer work because he needs a hip replacement. He used to own a home and a restaurant and coached high school baseball in Sebastopol, but he became homeless in 2020 because of his disability. “Yesue has a strong social network in Sebastopol — including people who help care for him and take him to doctors’ appointments — and receives all his medical treatment in the city,” said the lawsuit, filed by attorneys from four nonprofits. The city argued its RV restrictions were passed in response to health and safety concerns and complaints about a lack of parking near one of its main business areas. “The parking ordinance was our small town’s effort to balance the many interests we serve, to find a solution and not turn away from what was a very challenging situation,” Mayor Diana Rich said in a statement. Federal Judge Kandis Westmore sided with the city on Nov. 22, 2024, finding the city’s restrictions served a legitimate government purpose. The RV dwellers and the nonprofits have appealed Westmore’s ruling. Both sides made arguments to three judges in December 2025 and are awaiting their decision.
Berkeley encampment at issue In Berkeley, the city has been trying to remove an encampment of tents, cars and makeshift structures. The Berkeley Disabled RV dwellers sue In Sebastopol, four disabled RV Homeless Union sued to stop the city dwellers sued the city in October 2022 in February 2025.

to the school failing to hold sexual harassers accountable, the suit said. “Glazer said words to the effect that students should write about MVHS in a ‘positive light’ … The implication the students drew was that the Oracle should avoid upsetting people,” the suit said. Gomez, Olson and Duenow want the district to reinstate Gomez, allow the original article to be published and guarantee that future articles won’t be censored. Principal could be held responsible Judge Evette Pennypacker ruled in May 2024 that Glazer could be sued for allegedly censoring the article. Pennypacker cited a first-in-the-nation law passed by the California Legislature in 1971 to protect student’s free expression on school campuses, including in official school publications. Students have the right to free expression in school newspapers except when it’s “obscene, libelous, or slanderous,” or if the article would incite students to break the law or substantially disrupt the orderly operations of the school, the law saiid. Glazer said she let the students decide Glazer has denied censoring the article. She said she didn’t demand any changes or tell students they would suffer consequences for publishing the article. “I believed there were significant risks involved in publishing the article as written, but I understood that the decision was up to the students,” Glazer said in her court statement. Glazer said she reassigned Gomez and consolidated the journalism class because she was trying to save money and strengthen the school’s Career and Technical Education, or CTE. She said the Oracle has focused on print and it should shift into more of a digital operation. Glazer and the district will have a hearing on a motion to dismiss the lawsuit with Judge Eunice Lee on Oct. 20. The case is scheduled for a trial on Nov. 23.
