"I don't support the fee. It's hard enough to get the word out to residents," said Councilman Jeff Schmidt. "We may not always like how the coverage shakes out but we're big boys and girls."

"The '15-minute city' model is based on the original concept of a city: having the things we want and need closer to where we live. The idea is that we should be able to get to our everyday essentials within, ideally, 15 minutes on foot, bike, or public transit."

Waymo's robotaxis will automatically report potholes on Waze, providing up-to-date information that local governments can use to improve their road networks and maintenance efforts.

Menlo Park wants to start charging people to exercise their constitutional rights. How long before the city slaps a tax on people who want to exercise their right to free speech, or to peaceably assemble?

I ran because I thought the city was not listening to people. It's really the way the deal was handled that led to this kind of uprising.

A state judge has ruled that every red-light ticket written to a cyclist under the state's vehicle and traffic law since 2019 is bogus. The city legalized the practice of biking through a red light on a pedestrian 'walk' signal, yet NYPD cops have been wrongly writing tickets for cyclists who go through the 'red' on the walk signal.

John Kaehny has written and successfully lobbied for the passage of state and New York City laws related to government transparency and accountability, including the first open data law in the world in 2012.

"I think not detecting the card was the biggest issue. You couldn't get into the account to add money. I had to have them open the gate and let me in."

With just a single tap, subway and bus customers now have access to real-time arrivals at the stops closest to them, along with live positioning of the nearest trains and buses, clearer station layouts, and better transfer information.

In North Oaks, Minnesota, property lines extend to the middle of the street, which means the entire city is considered private property.

Campaigner Aysha Hawcutt stated that residents were 'not anti-homes', but believed the Adlington plan was 'the wrong proposal in the wrong place'. She expressed pride in the community's resilience against the development threats.

Since the start of 2025, at least 30 cities have canceled their contracts with Flock Safety, the AI surveillance company whose CEO wants to end all crime within the decade by blanketing the country in ever-watchful security cameras. That startling figure comes courtesy of NPR, which reports that concerned activists are putting mounting pressure on cities to cut ties with the company. "We are seeing a lot more momentum," Will Freeman, a Colorado-based organizer who runs the website DeFlock.org, told the broadcaster.

The current issue is whether Fremont controls the road that the Alameda County Board of Supervisors ceded to Christopher George, who has now blocked access with a gate. But it is part of a longer battle that has included the board considering George's request for the land after his company donated $10,000 to Supervisor David Haubert's campaign. The board granted his request ostensibly to save maintenance costs, but at the expense of constituents who have used that section of road recreationally for decades.

Like most everyone in town, we got all hot and bothered after the Transit Costs Project put out a report arguing that the city and state should raise $1 billion per year over 40 years to fund a massive expansion of the subway system, bringing the joy (and economic development) of truly rapid transit to more neighborhoods.

"Requests coming in through 311 were often assigned through long text chains and phone calls," Tisch said at the annual State of the NYPD address earlier this week. "Supervisors tracked jobs by hand, and officers didn't always have a clear picture of what was assigned, what was still open, or who was responsible for follow-up. ... That might work when volume is low. It doesn't work in a city of eight million people."

DOT's rules brought those establishments under the umbrella of the city's "long-term" and "short-term" concession regulations. The short-term concessions allow outdoor vendors to operate a max of 29 days out of the year. The long-term concession takes about a year to get set up. That would appear to leave restaurateurs on a handful of open streets shit-out-of-luck, including the so-called Dimes Square on Canal Street, which had planned to operate for 183 days this year.
