TAXES MORE TAXES AND MORE TAXES

I’ll probably vote for it, but for the $20K I pay in property taxes each year I kind of wish I could swim in the bay without risk of parasites or at least let my dog swim somewhere on this island without breaking the law.

while I’m at it, I would really like a free standing gym structure like the one at Santa Monica pier in L.A.

maybe an “Eye” like the one in London…looking at SF.

I live in Alameda and volunteer for Bay Nature magazine once a week. Here is one way to help the parks. Between now and Nov 2, if you buy a $21.95 subscription to Bay Nature, they will donate $4 to Yes on 21 for CA state parks. Just type in promo code EWK921 at checkout, and we’ll donate. Or call 1 (888) 4-BAYNAT and mention the save-our-parks code WEK921. Click here to subscribe: http://store.baynature.com/Detail.bok?no=7

“…visitors will be exempt from the $5 parking charge at the Alameda facility — as well as from $5-$15 charges for parking and using the state’s other 270-plus parks.”

270-plus parks?!? I’ll take that deal. Pays for itself in four visits, or fewer. I’ll stick $1.50 a month into a jar and support the parks.
