New Street Sweeping Signs and Schedule

To avoid parking tickets, do not park on the streets scheduled to be swept between 9am and 3pm.

clean!

Political Corruption & Transparency
Listen to Lawrence Lessig's views on transparency in government.
LawrenceLessig (born June 3, 1961) is an American academic. He is currently professor of law at Stanford Law School and founder of its Center for Internet and Society. He is best known as a proponent of reduced legal restrictions on copyright, trademark and radio frequency spectrum, particularly in technology applications.
At the iCommons iSummit 07 Lessig announced that he will stop focusing his attention on copyright and related matters. Instead he will work on corruption in the political system. This new work may be partially facilitated through his wiki "LessigWiki" which he has encouraged the public to use to document cases of corruption
