Lafayette City Council election
Dear Editor,
As a forty year resident of Lafayette, I urge voters to re-elect Carl Anduri to the Lafayette City Council this November. Carl continues to demonstrate talents that make him an effective community advocate and problem solver. Not only is Carl intelligent and hard-working, but he is thoughtful, ethical and fiscally responsible.
I have witnessed Carl's impressive and balanced leadership qualities while serving with him on Lafayette's Environmental Task Force and observing his work on the City Council and as mayor. I am particularly impressed with Carl's careful, responsible, inclusive approach to all problems, his excellent organizational skills, extensive background knowledge and clear and thoughtful communication skills. For decades, he has demonstrated a clear commitment to and forward looking vision for Lafayette.
We are lucky that Carl has agreed to continue to serve our community by running for re-election. I look forward to benefiting from his experienced judgment and leadership for years to come.
Sincerely,
Janet Thomas

I have recently encountered some websites where, in order to register to attend a free event, one must use the Eventbrite platform. When you engage with the platform, its privacy and cookie policies are right on your screen -- just a click away. I urge people to look at those policies before providing your personal information. There is a saying about the internet: "If you're not paying, you're the product." Meaning your personal data. Eventbrite isn't the only platform or app where this issue arises. Be smart about your privacy.

A wonderous place called the Nature Area
Over 12,000 students, their teachers and parents have experienced these wonders.
There are six ecosystems within the Nature Area.
Oak Woodlands, Grasslands, Mixed Woodland, Riparian, Wetlands and Chapparal are located in the 18 1/2 acres.
Each ecosystem contains a Native flora and fauna that Identify the ecosystem.
There are 2 ponds and 2 creeks.
There are 5 Native trees over 400 years old and historical ruins from the Wagers' time.
There are over 80 Eagle scout projects completed on the site.
Unfortunately, the NATURE AREA has been closed to access since 3/8/23.
We can continue to encourage OUSD to accept the $ 1.5 to get the tree work done.
A team of very dedicated and skilled volunteers can restore the pond, restore the trails, clean up the kitchen, dinning room and craft area.
This is a very personal issue for me since I have been the Naturalist at the NATURE AREA for 46 years.
