Lawsuit: Home is dangerous BY BRADEN CARTWRIGHT Daily Post Staff Writer

Filthy and dangerous — that’s how the town of Woodside described a house that has a long history of alleged building code violations, including holes in the walls, wires dangling from the ceiling and a buildup of animal feces inside. Nothing the town has done over the last 23 years has worked to secure the house at 625 Eastview Way, the town said in a lawsuit against owner Janet Lowery on Oct. 5.

ON MEASURE VOTERS OF PALO ALTO DO NOT BE HUSTLED

Don’t let the cynically manipulative language of Measure J fool you. Measure J does NOT set aside funds for developing Cubberley. What it does—and all it does—is permanently raise the sales tax to 10.25%. The money goes straight to City Hall to spend on anything it likes. Maybe that’s on Cubberley. Or maybe that’s on consultants and staff travel. Please read the Measure in your ballot. You’ll see, nothing in it locks in so much as a single dime for Cubberley. To finance the development of Cubberley, the City should propose a one-time Special Tax or Bond Measure, the funds from which are mandated to be spent on the project. Don’t write the City a blank check.

School board vets vie for single seat BY BRADEN CARTWRIGHT Daily Post Staff Writer

A switch in how school board elections are conducted in Mountain View and Los Altos has pushed three experienced candidates to compete for one seat. The candidates have a combined 20 years on the board. Thida Cornes and Catherine Vonnegut are incumbents, and Sanjay Dave is hoping to return after a two-year hiatus. First by-district election This is the ﬁrst election since the Mountain View Los Altos High School District was divided into ﬁve areas, with a board member elected from each one. Councilwoman Ellen Kamei and NVIDIA engineer Nir Paz are running unopposed in their areas, so they’ll automatically join the board. Cornes, Vonnegut and Dave are running in the area that stretches southwest from Central Expressway to Escuela Avenue, El Camino Hospital and the Sunnyvale border. The area includes the Shoreline West, Old Mountain View and Cuesta Park neighborhoods.

plishments overlapped because they’ve been on the board at the same time. Dave was on the board from 2016 to 2024. Vonnegut has been on the board since 2018, and Cornes since 2022. Dave said he’s proud of steering the district through the pandemic and making Ethnic Studies a graduation requirement. Vonnegut said she’s spearheaded non-academic initiatives, like creating a “graduate proﬁle” that shows the district’s vision for well-rounded students and establishing a student committee to advise Superintendent Eric Volta. Cornes said she’s helped improve test scores for English learners and added classes where students with disabilities can learn alongside their peers.

Legal threat spurs change The board stopped having district-wide election in response to a threat from Santa Barbara attorney Robert Goodman, who sent a demand letter on behalf of Mountain View resident Gerardo Alvarez on Aug. 2, 2024. Goodman said district-wide elections violate the California Voting Rights Act by diluting the representation of Latinos on board. Overlapping accomplishments Volta said no school district or city Cornes, Vonnegut and Dave had a debate on Tuesday with the League of has fought such a letter and won in Women Voters.
