Arguments

  • Measure A Authors Alexander Tauber and Peter Bailey argued, "Outdoor eating and gathering places where families can experience food, culture, art and music together are the cornerstone of strong communities around the country, and here in Woodside we have an opportunity to make these permanent features of our community as well."[2]
