Sara Copeland @skcopeland.bsky.social · 09/10/2026It's essentially a picnic, or an Easter egg hunt, or a holiday party dressed up in the appropriate seasonal format. These kids are assuredly going to trick or treat on the 31st & likely see a different set of neighbors. I say this as someone w/ experience attending. 020 0

Sara Copeland @skcopeland.bsky.social · 05/10/2026This is such an underappreciated point across all levels of government. If you pass a ZONING law but lack the compliance/ enforcement ability to enforce it, it's just window dressing. If you gut government capacity, policies are hollowed out. 010 0

Sara Copeland @skcopeland.bsky.social · 10/08/2026This headline makes me anxious because it gives a false sense of closure - it's blocked! Mission accomplished! But... things can change, depending on whether the developer wants the project to be considered at City Council, the body that *does* make a final decision. 030 0
Sara Copeland @skcopeland.bsky.social · 10/08/2026Headlines like this make me so anxious. The CPC recommended denial - they didn't block anything. The developer could still advance this project to the City Council (which the article does mention). And if that happens, the only public notice is the City Council docket. 101 0
