I am wondering how someone, who spends 2 years as Director of Housing Development for MidPen Housing Corporation, is now working for the city of Menlo Park in the Housing commission. As a reminder, MidPen is a corporation currently lobbying to add 'Low Income Housing' in the east side of Menlo Park.

I see a situation that is flirting very close with a conflict of interest considering the timing of all of it...I will follow this even closer than before because this Title 8 start to release a strange odor all over the state and the bay area in particular.

Thank you,

Dear @BH_resident, Commissioners don't "work" for the city, they are volunteers. Regardless, if a MidPen project comes before the housing commission, you should assume the this commissioner will be recused.
