Residents & Customers
“This decision will permanently transform our downtown. It should not be decided by just five people. Residents should get to vote.”
“The harder it is to get downtown, the less often I’ll go.”
“I support housing, but this is not the right place for it.”
“Downtown Menlo Park is one of the few places left where you run into your neighbors. That's worth protecting.”
“Small businesses don't get second chances. Once they're gone, they're gone.”
Businesses & Workers
“I've seen what happens when parking gets difficult - stores close. My job is at risk.”
“We’ve been in business for decades. Thoughtful development can strengthen this downtown. But the City's plan would do the opposite.”
“I work downtown, but I’d rather live somewhere with more space and greenery for my family.”
“The City Council has neglected downtown for years. The people of Menlo Park are the ones who truly care about its future.”
“We support more housing near downtown. Just not on top of the parking lots.”
