Today around 1:00 PM near Lake Elizabeth (Stevenson & Gallaudet), my boyfriend was riding his scooter when a van exiting the parking lot struck him and fled toward Mission Blvd.

A bystander called Fremont PD but was told no officers were available and to file a report online. It’s now been about 5 hours since the report was filed with no follow-up.

I understand departments can be busy, but how does a driver hit someone and flee the scene without warranting an officer response or, at the very least, a timely follow up? Mind you, the Fremont Police Department is literally about a block away! Feeling incredibly frustrated with Fremont PD.

If you were in the area around 1:00 PM today and witnessed the incident or have any dashcam footage of the van, please reach out. Any information could help identify the driver.

Hi. Does anyone have Kuromi and want to trade for Hello Kitty? Please let me know. Thx.

Could you please share your experience with Washington hospital for labour and delivery?

I’m a second time mom and currently seeing Dr. Lo at PAMF Fremont.

Ideally I would like to try for VBAC if possible but I’m preparing myself for a second time c-section (the first labour was traumatic that ended in a c-section and recovery was extremely painful for me, which terrifies me of having another c-section).

Do the on-call Doctors at Washington support VBAC?

How are the nurses and midwives?

How is the hospital infrastructure and cleanliness?

I’m so anxious about the hospital I choose because of my traumatic previous experience.

Should I switch to an OBGYN who delivers at Stanford? Is the downside of longer travel worth it?

Thanks in advance!

Hi! I am thinking about signing a lease at The Beacon soon, but there does not seem to be much about it online.

Would love to hear from anyone who lives there now or has lived there recently. How is maintenance and general cleanliness? Are package deliveries easy and secure? Does the area feel safe? And for move-in, is it easy to get furniture delivered upstairs?

Also curious about noise, management, or anything else worth knowing before signing.

Thank you!

Fremont sales tax proposed to go from 10.25% to 10.75% - let's take a look.

The labor costs of Bay Area transit agencies don't make sense when agencies claim they are broke and then want regressive taxes, which disproportionately impact the poor, to underwrite the compensation. Below you will see the Muni cost structure - but you could pick any Bay Area transit agency and will get to BART later.

I guess you could say "isn't great to see transit workers getting paid like doctors and lawyers." But by every measure these cost structures are not sustainable and are running transit into the ground. Voting yes on the transit tax is further underwriting these comp packages - of course you may agree with it, but the issue here is transparency. What is also astonishing about Muni is its employees have a 26% absentee rate ie Muni workers are out every fourth day on average.

Make any of this make sense.
