Permit me to echo the opinion of Bruce Karney and encourage the Mountain View City Council to approve, adopt and embrace the General Plan compiled by the Mountain View Coalition for Sustainable Planning. The plan addresses many important issues and committee has taken great care to examine each issue from as many perspectives as possible.
