65% of Palo leans voted to explore options for the use of this sim next to the industrial water treatment facility. Let's continue to explore the options before making a final decision.

Palo Alto has plenty of parks and open space. We should be focusing on climate issues and if this space can be used to help make us carbon neutral, we should consider that.

I worked to pass Measure E many years ago. We worked to set aside the land for a sustainability facility. The need is as important now as it was then. Do not act before learning about the latest technologies in sewage sludge conversion.

Thanks Peter for leading the charge again. I agree completely. We need to make use of this parcel to help Palo Alto become carbon neutral (a tall order and will take all possible strategies to achieve.)

Keep options open! Knee jerk preservation vs. good use of technology to solve problems.

While I love the open space at Byxby Park, it is so important to combat climate change. I think it's good to trade additional open space to eliminate greenhouse gas emissions.

If it is working for Redwood City (they must have some information about it by now) let's do it in Palo Alto.

It is vital that Palo Alto retain options for converting waste to energy and/or organic matter -- both of which would improved the city's GHG footprint. Please vote to keep the Measure E site option available.

I love parkland, but we need the Measure E site to help fight climate change. Nothing is more important!

In the worsening climate crisis it would be irresponsible to discard the Measure E option without an up-to-date evaluation of more sustainable local organics waste processing uses for the land.

Palo Alto needs to handle its own sewage waste and not ship it to others

Keep our options open for responsibly treating our organic waste stream in an environmentally sustainable way!

Yes!!! Trucking our toilet & green waste to process/ dump in someone else's community is not a solution. We need to take responsibility for our own waste!

Combatting climate change needs all the resources we can muster
