New Bridge May Hit a Snag
The Folsom Dam Bypass Bridge is currently being "fast-tracked" to a 2007 opening, however a design issue with the Folsom Dam raise project may pose a problem. A new spillway may be needed for the Dam, which would be perilously close the the bridge. Vice Mayor Andy Morin feels the bridge can be modified, however, to accomodate the design issue. Story in the Bee.Labels: Andy Morin, Folsom Dam Bridge

Affordable Housing Questioned
City Council has mixed emotions about how its quest for affordable housing is shaping up. Some developers are purchasing current developments and slating them for affordable housing, which is raising a few eyebrows. Council Members Morin and Howell feel this is a disproportionate way of clustering the affordable housing within Folsom. Story in today's Bee.

It's Down to the Wire
The polls are closed and it's time to start tabulating results... early reports show that Miklos, Howell, & Morin are the front-runners for Folsom City Council, Measure P is passing at 53%, but the biggest surprise so far is the governor's race. Bill Simon and Gray Davis differ from only a couple percentage points so far, with Davis now holding a slim margin. Follow the results here.

How Your City Council Candidates are Raising Money
Andy Morin, a challenger to the city council openings, has decided that rather than accepting contributions from outside sources, he'd fund his campaign on his own, putting up $12,000 of his own money. Incumbent Steve Miklos has brought in almost $11,000 from various places, including building and development interests. Other candidates who accepted contributions from developers include Kerri Howell and Nancy Mitchell. To check out where all the candidates got their money, see Sunday's article in the Bee.Labels: Andy Morin, Kerri Howell, Steve Miklos
