It's rare for projects in Mountain View to go this light on parking. The City Council approved a 100-unit affordable housing project with 16 parking spaces in the San Antonio area, with the idea that many future residents would rely on public transit.

Making some tradeoffs to get more homes built, Mountain View backed an affordable housing development with very few parking spaces.

A massive mixed-use housing project with 836 housing units won the Mountain View City Council's approval last night. If built, it would mark a big step towards transforming the city's East Whisman area.

A huge housing development that will create hundreds of homes in Mountain View is on track to getting built.

Mountain View's Rental Housing Committee is recommending that the city tighten annual rent increases on mobile home park residents, lowering it to 60% of the local rate of inflation.

It has been three years since Mountain View approved a rent control ordinance for its mobile home parks. Now it is looking to update the ordinance to offer more protections for tenants who are struggling to keep up with annual rent increases.

Back in 2009, Mountain View was looking to expand the Senior Advisory Committee's roster. Nowadays? It's struggling to recruit members and meet on a regular basis. Despite these problems, the City Council voted (on a tight 4-3 vote) not to dissolve the advisory body.

At risk of dissolution, a Mountain View advisory committee for older people squeaked by with enough support from the City Council on Tuesday evening to continue its mandate to work on issues related to seniors in the community.

The county has finally finished counting and certifying the election results. Take a look to see who won (and by what margins). We'll see newly elected candidates sworn into office over the next month.

Santa Clara County is done tallying the votes and has released the final results from last month's election.

What is local journalism worth to you?

When the Mountain View Voice was founded in 1993, it was a different time in the newspaper business. Locally owned retail businesses were plentiful and had resources for marketing. Advertising covered our costs. Unfortunately, those days are long gone. The old business model is broken and the survival of local journalism is now in the hands of readers, who must decide how much value they attach to having an independently owned local news organization.

We hope our reporting efforts are worth at least $10 per month, or $0.33 a day, to you. For that amount, you will become a subscribing member, have unlimited access to all our content and archives, receive member-only benefits and, most importantly, you will be doing your share to keep quality local journalism alive and well here on the Peninsula. With the closure of each local newspaper around the country, democracy and a community’s identity take a hit. So we ask, how much are they worth to you?
