Letter: Snow would serve city well

I have known Keith for over three years and he is a respectful and intelligent man. He became involved in our community shortly after moving here and attended many city and county meetings to learn about Hollister and San Benito County. He has an engineering background and suffered a very unfortunate industrial accident that has left him partially crippled and with a speech impediment but it definitely did not affect his brain or his interest in making a difference in our community. If you have read any of his letters to the editor you are aware of what I am saying. He will serve our city well if he is elected. He wants the city to be fiscally responsible and is very interested in making a difference for our youth. My vote is for Keith Snow.  

Letter: Misleading campaign information

We’ve been receiving lots of mailers against Measure Q that contain incorrect statements of its fiscal impact for San Benito County. The local Democratic Party says it would cause the county to lose $6.56 million annually “through 2035;” the No on Q campaign claims...

Work together for results

When I ran for election for mayor, I never had a chance to speak my opinion. I want to address the people about our city growth. They did not think clearly when making all these deals. All it seemed was continuously okaying these houses...

Guest View: Statue offers source of inspiration

When Eric Tognazzini passed away from cancer on May 20, 2011, San Benito County mourned. He was only 64 years old, but he had somehow managed to become known, loved and an inspiration for an amazing number of people. His smile and friendly wave greeted everyone he passed as he rode around Hollister on his three-wheeled bike, collecting aluminum cans for his recycling business. On any day of the week, Eric could be seen around Downtown Hollister. From Nino’s Pizzeria to Baywood Creamery, from Public Drive-In Market to Schipper’s, from Ladd’s Hardware to Muenzer’s Sporting Goods, Eric was part of Hollister itself.

Letter: Cold War thinking is now outdated

Letter to the editor: The cost of safety

Re: Kids on parade Still it gives me pause to worry and remember that children died in Highland Park at an Independence Day parade and in Uvalde in their own classroom. I’m sure this was in the mind of every parent on that July 4...

Guest View: Assemblyman Alejo says farewell

It has been a great privilege to represent the Central Coast in the State Assembly for the past six years. I'm honored that voters put their faith in me three times since 2010 to be there champion in Sacramento.

Problems continue for Ridgemark roads

Dear Editor:

Working together for positive change

Dear Editor, I have lived in Hollister for over seven years. Since I’ve been here, I have tried my best to give my input into the city and county as far as how to better help our community. I have talked a lot about saving...
