THANK YOU! . . . to each and every one of you who read all the fine print and worked doggedly to come up with a solution for the city’s housing plan that would pass the state’s new, more rigid requirements. Just reading about your work has felt exhausting. I can’t imagine how tedious and frustr...
Hi, I applied for your BMR housing and on the application it says that it gives preference to people living and working in Menlo Park.
