📰 News we're reading

• County officials seek public input on Dumbarton route between Redwood City and East Palo Alto (almanacnews.com) — Redwood City residents are being asked to weigh in on a major "Reimagine Dumbarton" project that would create a bus-only route and walking-biking path between Redwood City and East Palo Alto. Through Oct. 30, SamTrans staff and an online survey are gathering feedback on design, crossings, stations, and recreation spaces that could reshape travel options from the Redwood City Transit Center and Caltrain.
   

• California city toughens anti-camping policy, giving only 72-hour notices before enforcement (thecooldown.com) — While San Bernardino moves toward stricter anti‑camping rules for people experiencing homelessness, the story also notes that Redwood City voters will soon weigh a rent cap and added tenant protections amid ongoing housing pressures. For local renters and landlords, that upcoming ballot decision could shape how quickly rents can rise and what safeguards tenants have if they face steep increases.
