"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

What is that boat and why is it there?” asked Agnes Veith of Sunnyvale. She’s a volunteer at \u003ca href=\"https://www.environmentalvolunteers.org/ecocenter/\">Environmental Volunteers\u003c/a>, a nonprofit housed in a building that really does look like a boat, and wanted to know more about its history.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re a fan of art deco buildings in the Bay Area, you probably know of San Francisco’s \u003ca href=\"https://noehill.com/sf/landmarks/nat2007001468.asp\">Coit Tower\u003c/a>.

It’s in a subcategory of art deco called streamline moderne, or nautical moderne. Which is to say: horizontal orientation, rounded edges and porthole-shaped windows. There’s something that looks like a navigation bridge popping out onto a third story. A rainbow flag flies high and proud from a hoist at the top of the building. The paint job is a white that Benjamin Moore might describe as “sand dollar” or “dune,” with French blue accents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whimsy or cheese?

The local nonprofit where Goldberg works, and where Agnes Veith (our Bay Curious question-asker) volunteers, hosts field trips for some 50 schools in Silicon Valley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11940613\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-11940613 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/AF5A903D-EFC1-4C58-9728-9352E8236814_1_201_a.jpeg\" alt=\"A gray goose, with a long black neck, white and black head, and wings outstretched, lifts off from a rippling, brown lake, three splashes from its feet behind it.\" width=\"640\" height=\"330\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/AF5A903D-EFC1-4C58-9728-9352E8236814_1_201_a.jpeg 640w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/AF5A903D-EFC1-4C58-9728-9352E8236814_1_201_a-160x83.jpeg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A Canada goose takes flight in the Palo Alto Baylands. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Agnes Veith)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The organization got hold of the building in the 2000s and lined up grant money to renovate it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The refurbished Sea Scout building sits 4 feet higher than its forebear, to prevent future flooding due to tidal influx as well as sea level rise.

If they give up their trailers, and ultimately don’t get housing, they could be back on the street without shelter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These (tiny-cabin) programs allow for individuals to be removed at the discretion of the service provider,” Nicoletti said. “It’s very hard to imagine the amount of risk they’d be placed in to make that decision.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11940097\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11940097\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/RS62559_IMG_7029A-qut.jpg\" alt=\"A female-presenting white woman with long brown hair and a beanie holds her fist to her mouth with a concerned expression while listening\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/RS62559_IMG_7029A-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/RS62559_IMG_7029A-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/RS62559_IMG_7029A-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/RS62559_IMG_7029A-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/RS62559_IMG_7029A-qut-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jessica ‘Freeway’ Blalock (right), along with other residents and supporters, listens to a court hearing, via Zoom, at the Wood Street Commons on Friday. \u003ccite>(Erin Baldassari/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Nicoletti said residents have also experienced difficult living conditions at other tiny-cabin sites the city operates, including “extended periods of lack of access to basic necessities, like food and electricity and clean drinking water.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ford testified at the hearing that he, along with other residents with severe anxiety, PTSD and other mental health conditions, would find it difficult to be placed in such a facility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can’t be around too many people, especially strangers,” Ford said. “And it doesn’t matter whether you know them or not, they put you together with whoever.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Related Coverage' tag='wood-street,wood-street-commons']Orrick asked the Oakland attorney to describe the accommodations made for people with mental health disabilities.

The yard is a mess, and our beautiful garden is pretty much kaput.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The fence line is a mess. The yard is a mess, and our beautiful garden is pretty much kaput,” Barnes told families in a video message. “We are working hard to get things back together as best we can and ready for Jan. 9. The idea is to open on Jan. 9 and welcome your children in.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An atmospheric river storm brought heavy rain and snowfall and high winds to California over the New Year’s holiday weekend. The result was flooding, downed trees and power outages that threatened to delay the reopening of school after the winter holiday break.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Members of the Sunol Glen community helped with cleanup on the campus that houses the 270 students in transitional kindergarten through eighth grade. The campus, which shares Main Street with a mini-mart, a barbershop and a restaurant, has been a school and community hub, hosting community meetings, plays and events, since it was built in 1925.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although many volunteers pitched in to help, including a father with a backhoe, much of the work is being completed by a restoration management company. Insurance adjusters will determine how much of the damaged property can be salvaged and what is a loss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s not clear how many other schools in the state were damaged by last weekend’s storm. In many cases, school staff are still inspecting properties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The one-school district, and others in flood-prone areas of the state, are preparing for the next big storm, expected to arrive today. The storm and atmospheric river could bring more heavy rain, causing flooding in urban areas and around rivers, streams and creeks, according to the National Weather Service. Snow and high winds could also make getting to and from school treacherous in the mountains. Power outages are again likely in some parts of the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are sandbagging and moving shipping containers, clearing the drains, trying to do everything we can do to batten down the hatches for round No. 2,” Barnes said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7dq1otD3cI&list=PLED7qK1o_OX-TKLF_E5_Zbd6UC_ZMq5_M&t=2s\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Cruz County is one of the areas in the state expected to be hit hard by heavy rains and runoff through Thursday. School and county emergency staff met Monday to plan for the storm, including deciding which schools should be closed Tuesday, said Nick Ibarra, spokesperson for the Santa Cruz County Office of Education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schools in areas still under evacuation orders and that are determined to be inaccessible to students will be closed. Decisions to close schools once the storm hits will be made on a case-by-case basis depending on conditions, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Most of our students have not yet returned from winter break, which is fortunate in that sense considering the severity of the storm we are expecting,” Ibarra said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some schools in the county will be used as evacuation centers, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>New Alameda County Office of Education Superintendent Alysse Castro hadn’t even been sworn in yet when she got the call from Barnes about the damage to Sunol Glen School. She called Jake Wolf, a member of the California Department of Education’s Emergency Services Team.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The team, formed in 2020, includes Wolf and Joe Anderson, both former employees of the Governor’s Office of Emergency Services. The duo helps school officials communicate with state and federal agencies during emergencies like wildfires, earthquakes and storms. They offer up-to-date information about the emergency from the state operations center briefings they attend daily, give technical assistance about accessing government funds, connect school officials with needed resources and offer them advice on how to safely reopen schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We know there is a significant storm front that’s rolling in on Wednesday and Thursday, so we’ll be monitoring those impacts statewide,” Wolf said. “We will be trying to determine what level of support may be needed on the local and county front.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Predicting where problems will pop up is difficult, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t actually know where the rain is going to fall,” Wolf said. “And then you have counties like Alameda and Sacramento, where there’s a lot of channels, a lot of rivers, creeks and streams that are floating through. All it takes is somebody’s shed to get washed into a creek, and it’ll block a culvert and then all of a sudden now you’ve got a flood.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wolf’s best advice to school officials who could be affected by the storm is to track National Weather Service reports for their area and to stay connected with their county Office of Education to ensure they have the most up-to-date information available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nicholas Zafiratos, program coordinator for Safe Schools for All at the Monterey County Office of Education, has been visiting the county’s Office of Emergency Services daily to get updates on the storms.[aside postID=news_11936674,news_1935067]County Superintendent of Schools Deneen Guss posts regular updates to the county’s 20 school district superintendents on a WhatsApp chat.

The yard is a mess, and our beautiful garden is pretty much kaput,” Barnes told families in a video message. “We are working hard to get things back together as best we can and ready for Jan. 9. The idea is to open on Jan. 9 and welcome your children in.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An atmospheric river storm brought heavy rain and snowfall and high winds to California over the New Year’s holiday weekend. The result was flooding, downed trees and power outages that threatened to delay the reopening of school after the winter holiday break.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Members of the Sunol Glen community helped with cleanup on the campus that houses the 270 students in transitional kindergarten through eighth grade. The campus, which shares Main Street with a mini-mart, a barbershop and a restaurant, has been a school and community hub, hosting community meetings, plays and events, since it was built in 1925.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although many volunteers pitched in to help, including a father with a backhoe, much of the work is being completed by a restoration management company. Insurance adjusters will determine how much of the damaged property can be salvaged and what is a loss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s not clear how many other schools in the state were damaged by last weekend’s storm. In many cases, school staff are still inspecting properties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The one-school district, and others in flood-prone areas of the state, are preparing for the next big storm, expected to arrive today. The storm and atmospheric river could bring more heavy rain, causing flooding in urban areas and around rivers, streams and creeks, according to the National Weather Service. Snow and high winds could also make getting to and from school treacherous in the mountains. Power outages are again likely in some parts of the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are sandbagging and moving shipping containers, clearing the drains, trying to do everything we can do to batten down the hatches for round No. 2,” Barnes said.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/E7dq1otD3cI'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/E7dq1otD3cI'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Cruz County is one of the areas in the state expected to be hit hard by heavy rains and runoff through Thursday. School and county emergency staff met Monday to plan for the storm, including deciding which schools should be closed Tuesday, said Nick Ibarra, spokesperson for the Santa Cruz County Office of Education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schools in areas still under evacuation orders and that are determined to be inaccessible to students will be closed. Decisions to close schools once the storm hits will be made on a case-by-case basis depending on conditions, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Most of our students have not yet returned from winter break, which is fortunate in that sense considering the severity of the storm we are expecting,” Ibarra said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some schools in the county will be used as evacuation centers, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>New Alameda County Office of Education Superintendent Alysse Castro hadn’t even been sworn in yet when she got the call from Barnes about the damage to Sunol Glen School. She called Jake Wolf, a member of the California Department of Education’s Emergency Services Team.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The team, formed in 2020, includes Wolf and Joe Anderson, both former employees of the Governor’s Office of Emergency Services. The duo helps school officials communicate with state and federal agencies during emergencies like wildfires, earthquakes and storms. They offer up-to-date information about the emergency from the state operations center briefings they attend daily, give technical assistance about accessing government funds, connect school officials with needed resources and offer them advice on how to safely reopen schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We know there is a significant storm front that’s rolling in on Wednesday and Thursday, so we’ll be monitoring those impacts statewide,” Wolf said. “We will be trying to determine what level of support may be needed on the local and county front.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Predicting where problems will pop up is difficult, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t actually know where the rain is going to fall,” Wolf said. “And then you have counties like Alameda and Sacramento, where there’s a lot of channels, a lot of rivers, creeks and streams that are floating through. All it takes is somebody’s shed to get washed into a creek, and it’ll block a culvert and then all of a sudden now you’ve got a flood.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wolf’s best advice to school officials who could be affected by the storm is to track National Weather Service reports for their area and to stay connected with their county Office of Education to ensure they have the most up-to-date information available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nicholas Zafiratos, program coordinator for Safe Schools for All at the Monterey County Office of Education, has been visiting the county’s Office of Emergency Services daily to get updates on the storms.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
