Same city that recently extended their 50' building height limit (despite already having several apartment buildings taller than that).

I can’t believe it was unanimous. In my city support for bike lanes is almost unanimous (though they still won’t fund their construction…)

I guess if democracy fails then all that’s left is direct action. Anyone live in that area know anything about organizations that could spearhead something like this? I would think the Bay Area would have something like this going on but maybe not.

Yes... Tell people that if they can't drive they are unwanted in society. Then you wonder why people like me are angry.
