We’ve now published the full version on our @strongtowns-carmel.bsky.social page. Feel free to borrow from it if you’d like to write your own letter to your community leaders. 👇

It's unreal that Republicans want to reverse the recent ban on trichloroethylene (TCE). We put so much of this deadly chemical into the environment that oceanographers can detect it in the most remote areas of the ocean.

Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.
They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

Feiffer's work has been a delight to me at every age. I recall as a kid buying The Man in the Ceiling at City Lights. I would take breaks in the college library by reading Passionella, The Explainers… And it was a blessing that he continued to produce work into his 90s (e.g. his column for Tablet).

If big SUVs/pickups are too dangerous in cities and not just a space burden, then more $$$ parking permits aren't the answer. They shouldn't be granted permits at all. Never mind that their owners are already willing to pay a premium over smaller cars (which the government defrays with tax rebates).
Here’s an idea for better cities: Make owners of big SUVs & pickups pay more for parking permits.
That's what's happening in Montreal, the first North American city to try it.
In CityLab, I explored a novel way to fight back against car bloat. 🧵

I still think if your crime was particularly cool, it’s shouldn’t be a crime, like building yourself a secret little apartment at a train station with public funds.

You've heard of news deserts. Welcome to the news mirage. Chevron owns this California city's only news site. And that's not the company's only foray into potemkin news publications.

Chevron owns this city’s news site. Many stories aren’t told.
The oil and gas company-owned Richmond Standard tells mostly positive stories about the major industry that dominates this California city and its skyline.
