📰 News we're reading

• Dublin Weighs 1,000-Foot Buffer Between Gun Shops, Schools (patch.com) — Dublin officials are considering new rules that would require gun stores and indoor shooting ranges to be at least 1,000 feet from any public or private K-12 school, including the new BASIS Independent School on Dublin Boulevard. After a temporary moratorium and a review of other California cities' policies, staff say the change would still leave about 83 percent of the city's commercial and industrial land available for firearm-related businesses while adding safety and compliance checks.
   

• Best high schools in California (ttownmedia.com) — A new statewide ranking of California high schools places The Quarry Lane School in Dublin among the top private schools, highlighting its strong academics and favorable student–teacher ratio. The list compares standout campuses from Oakland to La Jolla, giving Dublin families context on how a local option stacks up against elite schools across the state.
