FW: Can we count on your vote in the Council against any 'Elevated Rail' options for Charleston and Meadow intersections?

[Parag Patkar]

Hello again Neighbors

Greg Tanaka is currently serving as a Palo Alto City Council Member. He is also running for re-election. Please look at the email thread below. I posed the one burning question that all of us have and I got a one line, clear-as-day response. No shades of grey. His response is highlighted.

 

There are 7 Council Members, if we get 4 to vote against any elevated rail options, come what may, we are home free. The buck stops at the Council on this topic.

 

Towards that end,  if any of you know the other candidates running for re-election or more importantly currently serving Council members and can pose this same question and get the same unequivocal response, please call me on my cell phone and I will have you post that email thread as-is to this mailing list. This mailing list consists of folks in Palo Alto who want to underground the train,  no buts no ifs.

Hi Greg

Like we spoke, can we rely on you a 100% to not vote for any elevated rail options for Charleston and Meadow intersections?

 

Yes.

 

I want to underground the train. 

Separately from this, I sincerely appreciate all your hard work on the Council thus far.

 

With regards,
