The bond measure helps create an urban park for community activities and events. The plan includes a Cafe in a restored old Arco station along San Pablo Dam Road to help fund maintenance and adds security, a gardener, a fence containing two locking gates, an elevated boardwalk to prevent direct access to the creek and protect a restored habitat and improved water quality. This property provides the only point of connection for the public from the road to a future boardwalk along the creek extending to Wildcat Canyon Trail and gives cyclists a safer route from 30,000 racing vehicles daily along San Pablo Dam Rd with no bike lanes. The project improves livability and jumpstarts a revitalization for downtown El Sobrante.

Improvements

Until this October, there is a rare opportunity to acquire a 1.5-acre property to create an urban hub for El Sobrante and surrounding communities. The concept attempts to build a public and private partnership with the County, East Bay Regional Parks District (EBRPD), and/or other foundations to transform the land into a park and restore its creek habitat. The plan includes a Cafe in the old Arco station, security, gardener, fence, two locking gates, an elevated boardwalk with fence below to prevent direct access to the creek and protect restored habitat. The acquisition allows for future development of an extended boardwalk to connect to Wildcat Canyon Trail and provide cyclists a safer route from 30,000 racing vehicles daily along San Pablo Dam Rd with no bike lane.

Students have to go to school five days week, not including the ones that come on weekends and stay after school for long periods of time because of clubs and other activities that are essential for getting into college. All they want to do is come home and relax, maybe study for upcoming tests, which is not considered homework. We shouldn't cut homework all together, but we need to drastically decrease the amount of homework students are given. Homework doesn't help them as much as teachers think it does, it just causes stress. Teachers should be worrying about what they do in school, not out of school. As a student, I've had homework that has taken me hours, and it only stresses me out. Stressed out students do not perform well in class or in tests.

Whales are honestly adorable. I am 13 years old and in social studies class, we are learning about how colonial Americans used to hunt whales for their oils. Whales are a precious creature, and people do want their goods, I understand, but how would you like it if you were killed for your hair, skin, body parts or clothes/money? Doesn't feel good right? I like whales in general, and it hurts me that they are being hunted

我們是布碌崙第20學區的家長、親友及居民，20學區涵蓋的社區包括Borough Park, Bay Ridge, Dyker Heights, Sunset Park, Bensonhurst, Bath Beach and Fort Hamilton. 對於20學區的公立學校表現我們感到非常驕傲，20學區是紐約市學區成績最優異的學區之一，縱使我們學區裡多數學校面對嚴重的過度擁擠問題。 我們的學區需要的是讓現有的公校獲得更多資源，以及建立新的公校提供和現有公校一樣的優質教育，讓我們的孩子在傳統公校裡學習成長。特許學校並無法解決我們面臨的教育需求。 我們，以下共同連署，一齊發聲反對The Hellenic Classical Charter School – Dyker Heights 提出的申請，並要求貴單位拒絕該項申請計畫。

We are the parents, neighbors, and residents in District 20 in Brooklyn that includes neighborhoods of Borough Park, Bay Ridge, Dyker Heights, Sunset Park, Bensonhurst, Bath Beach, and Fort Hamilton. We are very proud that District 20 public schools are one of the highest academic achievement school districts in New York City, despite the majority of our schools being drastically overcrowded. What our community needs is additional resources for our existing public schools and new traditional public schools that will provide the same good quality of education available currently in the district for our children to learn and grow. A charter school will not meet the needs we have in our district. We, the undersigned, together voice our opposition to the application by The Hellenic Classical Charter School – Dyker Heights in Brooklyn and urge its charter application be denied.

Johnson Brothers Liquor believes North Dakotans are Worth Less. They are demanding hardworking families make less than other parts of the country. Stand with North Dakota Workers as they fight for what they deserve. Tell them they should be a company who treat their workers with respect! Tell them JBL employees are not second rate! JBL Employees who do the same job as other parts of the country should be able to receive the same, too. They should NOT make less for the same exact job.

Former U.S. President Barack Obama is coming to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign on September 7, to receive an award for “ethics in government.” [1] Barack Obama’s career in government has a gruesome moral stain, for which he still has the opportunity to make restitution. In March 2015, as President of the United States, Barack Obama approved U.S. military intervention in Yemen on behalf of Saudi Arabia. The subsequent unnecessary and unjustified Saudi war and blockade in Yemen has created the worst humanitarian crisis in the world, with millions of human beings pushed deliberately to the brink of starvation, a “famine” imposed by Saudi Arabia, the U.S. and Britain akin to the British-imposed “Great Famine” in Ireland between 1845 and 1849. Obama’s unnecessary and unjustified military intervention on behalf of the Saudis in Yemen was and remains unconstitutional and illegal. It occurred and is ongoing without having been authorized by Congress, in flagrant violation of Article I of the Constitution and the War Powers Resolution of 1973. “It’s not a radical idea” to speak out against this ongoing, illegal U.S.-enabled Saudi atrocity. Senator Bernie Sanders said on September 1: “We must end U.S. support for this disastrous war in Yemen. It is also long past time that we begin to take a very hard look at our relationship with Saudi Arabia.” [2] Barack Obama isn’t President of the United States anymore. But that doesn’t end his personal moral responsibility for the ongoing atrocities of the U.S.-backed Saudi famine-war in Yemen. The atrocities of the U.S.-Saudi war in Yemen continue today. Just last month the U.S. helped Saudi Arabia blow up a bus full of schoolchildren, which Saudi Arabia still claims was a “legitimate military target.” UN investigators say Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have killed thousands of civilians in Yemen in airstrikes, tortured detainees, raped civilians and used child soldiers as young as 8, actions which are likely war crimes. [3] Barack Obama is speaking out now about “American values.” He could speak out now about ending this war. Helping Saudi Arabia blow up buses full of schoolkids isn’t an “American value” that the majority of Americans would ever vote for, if they were ever allowed to vote on it. If Obama spoke out now for ending the biblically-catastrophic Saudi war in Yemen, it would pressure Democratic leaders in Congress push for a vote to end the war. Obama’s silence on the atrocities of the war helps to perpetuate those atrocities. After the Saudis bombed the bus full of kids, liberal foreign policy expert Micah Zenko wrote: “The only reason that I can guess why the United States continues to arm, train, and provide essential logistical support for the air campaign in Yemen, is that this support has occurred during both Democratic and Republican administrations; as we learned in Vietnam previously and Afghanistan every day, where poor strategic decisions are made and sustained by administrations of both major political parties, there is no political advantage for the party out of power to critique current policy.” [4] Obama could personally change this dynamic by speaking out now. Some Obama Administration officials have already admitted that it was a moral mistake for the Obama Administration to enable Saudi Arabia’s famine-war in Yemen. Samantha Power, who as Obama’s Ambassador to the UN defended the war, said last December, "The US is … wrong (as were we in last admin) to keep supporting Saudi-led coalition as it kills civilians w/ impunity & blocks medicine/food/fuel supplies in face of looming famine." [5] Urge Barack Obama to speak out in Urbana on September 7 for ending the biblically-catastrophic U.S.-Saudi war in Yemen by signing our petition.

The unfairness of pushing through this nomination prior to the midterm elections and without all documentation necessary for informed response and vote.
