An independent investigator hired to look into a series of allegations made by Woodside Town Manager Jason Ledbetter against council members found only one stuck — that Councilman Paul Goeld broke the state’s open meeting law.
Ledbetter demanded $400,000 to leave his post as town manager and to
keep his blistering report under wraps, the town said on Feb. 19, after Ledbetter made the report public. In it, Ledbetter claimed he was manipulated to stop subsidized housing projects and that two council members would make
disparaging, racist and sexist remarks about others on council.
As a result of the allegations, the town hired David Stallard, an attorney with the Stallard Panebianco workplace investigation firm, to look into Ledbet-
ter’s complaints. His report substantiated only one of 10 claims in Ledbetter’s report — that Goeld violated what’s known as the Brown Act, the state’s open meeting law — by telling Ledbetter about his hiring process.
Stallard interviewed nine witnesses and reviewed emails, text messages, photographs and a video recording, according to his report. Before interview-

Complaints about RVs parked around businesses on the city’s east side have increased in San Carlos, prompting council to seek a solution on Monday.
The San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office patrols and marks vehicles with 72-hour stickers, and the night patrol teams issue $50 parking tickets, but despite those efforts, approximately 15 to 20 vehicles continue to park on city streets, according to Interim City Manager Nil Blackburn.
“It seems like a cat and mouse issue that the RV dwellers seem to know how to play very well. Currently, there are four campers that have dug in their heels and are not moving,” business

Menlo Park City Council is considering a proposal to charge local newspapers, such as the Daily Post, a fee for distributing papers in news racks.
If approved on Tuesday, Menlo Park would become the first and only mid-Peninsula city to charge such fees.
The Post would have to pay a fee
even though the newspaper is free to readers.
The proposal before council would require newspapers to pay an initial $373 fee for each rack. For a newspaper with 25 racks, that would be a $9,325 hit.
Renewing a permit would cost $233
per year. For 25 racks, that would come to $5,825 a year.
Publishers might try to avoid the annual fee by ending distribution to Menlo Park.
If a newspaper wanted to protest, the cost would be $373. And appealing

A Redwood City man was arrested for attempting to meet with a teenage boy in Menlo Park, a prosecutor said yesterday.
Ricardo Antonio Romerolique, 31, was arrested on Thursday after trying to meet a Menlo Park officer posing as a teenage boy on Grindr, District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said.
The officer used an AI picture of an 18-year-old boy and started talking to Romerolique around 4 p.m. on Thursday, Wagstaffe said. The officer told Romerolique he was actually 13, and Romerolique asked for pictures or videos of his private parts, the DA said.
The officer, posing as the teen, talked to Romerolique over the phone, and asked if he wanted to meet at a location on Gilbert Avenue at 5:30 p.m., Wagstaffe said.
Romerolique was in court yesterday and pleaded innocent. He is in jail on $50,000 bail and will be back in court on April 30.
Menlo Park police said other agencies involved in the arrest were the Sunnyvale Police Department, Newark Police Department, and the Northern California Regional Intelligence Center (NCRIC). NCRIC, which has an outpost in San Francisco, is the agency that stores license-plate data for local police departments.

a city decision over a newsrack would run $373. It was unclear what the ordinance considers a “protest” or “appeal.” The news rack proposal hasn’t been the subject of any outreach by city employees.
Where it came from
It appeared for the first time in a 245-page proposal the council discussed on March 24. The news rack proposal was on page 241 of the report, no one at the March 24 meeting brought up the news rack proposal.
Tuesday night is when the new fee schedule is set to be voted on, making it the last chance for the public and newspaper employees to discuss the proposal.
The report didn’t indicate whether any of the five members of council wanted to hit the newspapers with this new fee. The city employee who wrote the report was Fenny Lei, Assistant Administrative Services Director, and the report was reviewed by Brittany Mello, Administrative Services Director.
The city is looking at raising revenues after the state cut the amount of money it gets from vehicle license fees, otherwise known as the car tax. The city hired a consultant, Government Consulting Partners of Granite Bay, Calif., to find ways it could raise revenue. The consultant came up with a list of new fees or increases that would raise $4.3 million in revenue.
The council meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. on Tuesday.
Many fees the city charges will increase if the proposal passes. For instance, the proposed ordinance says:
• The Menlo Children’s Center kindergarten camp fee would go from $610 to $671.
• A “Letter of Good Conduct” from police would increase from $30 to $45.
• The annual fee for a towing company would jump from $150 to $190.
• A debris box would cost $248, up from $120.
• Banners on Santa Cruz Avenue would cost $705, up from $480.
• A construction noise ordinance exemption would go from $515 to $1,040.
• A permit for the first 50 feet of a retaining wall would go from $222.59 to $475.04. And the city’s fee for checking the plans for the wall would increase
from $210.52 to $415.13.
• The fee for adding a deck would rise from $181.38 to $402.92. And checking the plans for that deck would cost more than the permit, going from $203.41 to $500.
• Remodeling a bathroom? That fee would go from $300.21 to $593.33. And the plan check would be increasing from $178.16 to $350.00.
• If you’re opening a small restaurant, say 1,000 square feet, the city permit would go from $2,819.19 to $4,082.13.
• The fee for opening a 2,500-square-foot day care center would go from $13,565.89 to $16,852.23.
ing every witness, he advised them to say if they were concerned about any retaliation.
ments from that day made his allegation less credible than Goeld’s denial, according to Stallard. Ledbetter also said Dombkowski allegedly used derogatory terms when talking about Councilwoman Wall, like referring to her chest as “marbles on a billiards table,” but three other witnesses denied it, including two who showed bias against Dombkowski, Stallard wrote.


Goeld admitted during his interview with Stallard to telling Ledbetter that Councilwoman Jenn Wall complained about his hiring because he was a white male from a conservative area over dinner, Stallard wrote. Ledbetter was previously the city manager of Yreka, in Siskiyou County.
Ledbetter’s report also claimed that Mayor Brian Dombkowski and Goeld would abuse their positions and tell Ledbetter not to comply with the Housing Element, a housing quota under state law.
Dombkowski and Goeld contradicted the allegation and along with the fact that council had approved the Housing Element, “make it unlikely Ledbetter was pressured as alleged,” Stallards’ report said.
Slur use ‘implausible’
Ledbetter accused Goeld of referring to Palestinians as the “original” n-words at a dinner at the Village Pub Ledbetter was invited to, but there is no evidence to prove the slur was used, Stallards wrote.

“It was implausible that Goeld would use such language as it was a public place where a public figure using such language could have been heard by others and would have been noticeable due to it being an upscale restaurant,” the report stated.
Ledbetter’s inability to recall other memorable mo-
Sexism denied Ledbetter said Wall would belittle him and be very demanding due to his gender. Wall would text him at 3 a.m., midnight, on weekends, and holidays, expecting immediate responses, Ledbetter said in his report. Through a California Public Records Act request, the Post received screenshots of text messages showing Wall texting Ledbetter at 3:27 a.m. on Monday Aug. 25, 11:59 p.m. on Saturday Aug. 30, and 7:55 a.m. on Sunday Aug. 31.
Wall said in her messages on Aug. 30 that she was in France and she woke up to messages about neighbors not getting an emergency alert about a fire. France is nine hours ahead of California.
Wall’s text messages were related to town business, so for that reason, it was not considered mistreatment, Stallard said.
Can he be fired?
Ledbetter was hired by council last April, and his contract is set to expire in May 2028 with a base salary of $300,000.

Ledbetter is currently on paid administrative leave, and the town is reviewing whether his “threats” to publicly release his report can be a reason to fire him under his employment agreement.
Ledbetter previously told the Post that he asked for his severance, benefits, and continued health insurance to be paid for a year, totaling more than $400,000, and council rejected his demand.
The Post reached out to all five members of the Woodside town council and Ledbetter for comment, but did not receive a response.
DA also investigating
The San Mateo County District Attorney’s Office has also completed its investigation of any Brown LEDBETTER



Act violations by council, according to DA Steve Wagstaffe. The DA’s office will release its findings next week, Wagstaffe said.
owner Tony Barulich wrote to the city on Jan. 30.
Asking for a change
Barulish, the owner of Camco Furnace at 1017 Bransten Road, has been dealing with the issue for the last five years, according to his letter.
“They leave garbage outside, run generators at all times of the day and night, and are a blight on our business neighborhood. They are usually accompanied by additional cars, they use to get around town while leaving their campers in the same spot for days and weeks. More importantly, they are taking up parking that should be for our employees and customers,” Barulish wrote.
He asked council to consider limiting street parking to 12 or 24 hours instead of 72 hours.
Current rules
The city currently has overnight parking restrictions from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m., but these do not address daytime parking, according to Blackburn. The
72-hour parking rule can be easily circumvented by relocating within a short distance in the same area, she said in her report.
Abandoned vehicles can be towed, however the sheriff’s office’s contract with Action Tow leaves the city with a $3,500 bill when a vehicle is impounded for over 30 days, according to Blackburn.
Only 44% of parking tickets issued were paid in 2025, according to Blackburn.
Council will look at what neighboring cities, such as Belmont, Menlo Park and Redwood City, have done to reduce the number of RVs on their streets.
Belmont has banned people from living in a car and has not seen an increase in RVs, according to Blackburn. Redwood City and Menlo Park have considered increasing the number of signs on their parking rules. Menlo Park last year expanded its ban on overnight parking to include all streets in the city.
Palo Alto recently endorsed a permit program for RV dwellers to cap the number of vehicles and manage bad behavior.
Meanwhile on Tuesday, the Los Altos City Council will discuss its own camping ban after a small encampment has popped up along Fremont Avenue near Stevens Creek.
