In America where freedom of religion is the law, we need protections for religious groups like pagans, druidism Voudon, and Polynesian traditions.
The hysteria caused by puritanical views brought bigotry and hate to a land where religious expression granted new hope. In order to stop , and eradicate, the hate there must be a path forward for safety and freedom to believe how you wish without the fear and hysteria casting you aside. If witches were deemed evil, the witch trials wouldn't have happened.
I am the descendant of a woman hanged, accused of the bogus crime of witchcraft. It is time we do what we can to right this wrong for all victims of witch hunts.
We moved to Tessera, and like many others found that we were deceived by the seller. We were intentionally misled to believe we would have access to Lago amenities, and that we would have a voice in the HOA in our neighborhood. Moreover, we were upset to learn that the HOA had been paying insane amounts of money for groundskeeping that was never done (an admitted mistake that was swept under the rug). Embezzlement? No transparency, no communication, no choice. We need the State's intervention!
I am a strong advocate for transparency, clarity, and fairness in all transactions and agreements between the city and developers and their impact on current and future homeowners. Those standards have not been fully met for Tessera homeowners. I support corrective actions that produce the best resolution for we the homeowners.
Not only are our amenities open to the public, but our neighborhood has no access to any of the other Lago Vista parks and facilities. How is it that we pay dues that anyone in Lago can use but yet aren't consider part of Lago Vista?
The community improved this area from neglected, unmaintained and often trashy to a place of meaning and beauty. If some adjustments are needed to make it safe, then provide guidance and a ‘path’ to compliance (pun intended). Let the garden stand as it what it has become for the community - the gateway to Dog Beach.
This petition is such an important step toward preserving not just a garden, but a legacy of community, care, and connection. Gwen’s Memorial Garden was more than flowers and benches—it was a place where neighbors met, families found quiet comfort, and children learned about the importance of nature in our everyday lives. Erasing it without any clear justification feels like wiping away a chapter of our shared history and the spirit of togetherness Gwen inspired.
I would like to walk over to take my kids to Karate and to get a milk, hangout in coffee shops or restaurants instead of hopping in a car and drive which creates more unneccasry carbon and impacts the environment.
There are long time residents in the area who are walking to the Fair Oaks Plaza to do their grocery shopping. People living nearby who don’t have cars depend on those retail shops. If that area is redeveloped, they need to include retail to serve the community.
North Sunnyvale is already lower income relative to the rest of Sunnyvale and many residents there do not have access to reliable transportation. Making North Sunnyvale a food desert make life even more difficult for residents who do not have reliable access to transportation and therefore need to walk to obtain groceries.
