"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.",

The entire downtown effort could cost $250 million from a mix of public and private sources. The funding for the first step being celebrated at the groundbreaking comes from a $5.8 million \u003ca href=\"http://www.onebayarea.org/funding-and-grants.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">One Bay Area Grant \u003c/a>awarded to the city in 2013. The project will extend Capitol Avenue, connecting employment and retail centers and developing, Mayor Harrison promises, a real Main Street feel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As things stand today, von Borck says, “a lot of our community needs to go outside of Fremont in order to seek out restaurant options or entertainment options.” She hopes a busier, pedestrian- and transit-friendly downtown will convince residents to stick around instead of heading to Palo Alto or Livermore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Egon Terplan, the regional planning director with \u003ca href=\"http://www.spur.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SPUR, the San Francisco-based urban planning organization\u003c/a>, says the lack of a downtown in Fremont is due in part to the fact much of the area was rural and agricultural. In fact, his grandmother grew up on a farm near the city’s planned downtown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Terplan says that a city creating a downtown needs to focus on how buildings relate to walkways and streets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“How close are they to the sidewalk?” Terplan says, reciting a list of key questions. “Is there a big setback with a parking lot behind it? Or is there a generous sidewalk that you can walk by? Does the ground floor of the building have active uses that are inviting, that make people want to be a pedestrian?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those are small things, but if you do them right, you can see the difference from space. In an event room at SPUR, Terplan gestures to a satellite map of the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You see a couple places where there’s a grid pattern, there’s a set of taller buildings surrounded by often a leafier residential neighborhood. And so the downtown pops in that context,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Terplan points to downtowns like San Jose, Palo Alto and San Mateo. On the satellite map, Fremont doesn’t pop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It doesn’t jump out as much a traditional downtown,” Terplan says, the kind that was built before World War II.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Terplan says it will help if Fremont plans around transit. The current downtown is about half a mile from the city’s existing BART station. BART falls just outside downtown, \u003ca href=\"http://www.fremont.gov/DocumentCenter/View/18050\">as depicted on city planning documents.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next year, Fremont’s second BART station is expected to open. To be known as the South Fremont/Warm Springs stop, it will be the first step in BART’s march into Silicon Valley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of the reasons that’s a game-changer for Fremont is that it transforms it from being the end of the line of a system, to being in the middle of the line,” says Terplan. He adds that his grandmother used to be able take the Southern Pacific from Fremont to San Jose. BART will make that trip possible again when the BART Silicon Valley line opens in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The station in the Warm Springs area is 6 miles south of downtown, and the city has big plans for the area. If downtown Fremont is about amenities and a civic heart for people in Fremont, then Warm Springs is about luring business currently outside Fremont.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Jessica von Borck puts it, “The Warm Springs innovation district is more outward-facing, and finding a place for Fremont within Silicon Valley itself.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city has a slick website called \u003ca href=\"http://www.thinksiliconvalley.com\">Think Silicon Valley\u003c/a>, touting its benefits to tech companies. The city is already home to Tesla Motors and \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/ci_21734967/study-fremont-is-nations-top-city-startup-tech\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a host of tech firms\u003c/a>, and it wants more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are a sleeping dragon,” von Borck says, laughing. “We have a lot of opportunities that are really unknown to a lot of companies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fremont hopes that development around Warm Springs, already the city’s largest employment center, \u003ca href=\"http://fremont.gov/DocumentCenter/View/18691\">will add 12,000 jobs\u003c/a> over the next quarter-century. If all the planning comes together, the sleeping dragon could be about to wake up.\u003c/p>\n\n",

The funding for the first step being celebrated at the groundbreaking comes from a $5.8 million \u003ca href=\"http://www.onebayarea.org/funding-and-grants.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">One Bay Area Grant \u003c/a>awarded to the city in 2013. The project will extend Capitol Avenue, connecting employment and retail centers and developing, Mayor Harrison promises, a real Main Street feel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As things stand today, von Borck says, “a lot of our community needs to go outside of Fremont in order to seek out restaurant options or entertainment options.” She hopes a busier, pedestrian- and transit-friendly downtown will convince residents to stick around instead of heading to Palo Alto or Livermore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Egon Terplan, the regional planning director with \u003ca href=\"http://www.spur.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SPUR, the San Francisco-based urban planning organization\u003c/a>, says the lack of a downtown in Fremont is due in part to the fact much of the area was rural and agricultural. In fact, his grandmother grew up on a farm near the city’s planned downtown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Terplan says that a city creating a downtown needs to focus on how buildings relate to walkways and streets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“How close are they to the sidewalk?” Terplan says, reciting a list of key questions. “Is there a big setback with a parking lot behind it? Or is there a generous sidewalk that you can walk by? Does the ground floor of the building have active uses that are inviting, that make people want to be a pedestrian?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those are small things, but if you do them right, you can see the difference from space. In an event room at SPUR, Terplan gestures to a satellite map of the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You see a couple places where there’s a grid pattern, there’s a set of taller buildings surrounded by often a leafier residential neighborhood. And so the downtown pops in that context,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Terplan points to downtowns like San Jose, Palo Alto and San Mateo. On the satellite map, Fremont doesn’t pop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It doesn’t jump out as much a traditional downtown,” Terplan says, the kind that was built before World War II.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Terplan says it will help if Fremont plans around transit. The current downtown is about half a mile from the city’s existing BART station. BART falls just outside downtown, \u003ca href=\"http://www.fremont.gov/DocumentCenter/View/18050\">as depicted on city planning documents.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next year, Fremont’s second BART station is expected to open. To be known as the South Fremont/Warm Springs stop, it will be the first step in BART’s march into Silicon Valley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of the reasons that’s a game-changer for Fremont is that it transforms it from being the end of the line of a system, to being in the middle of the line,” says Terplan. He adds that his grandmother used to be able take the Southern Pacific from Fremont to San Jose. BART will make that trip possible again when the BART Silicon Valley line opens in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The station in the Warm Springs area is 6 miles south of downtown, and the city has big plans for the area. If downtown Fremont is about amenities and a civic heart for people in Fremont, then Warm Springs is about luring business currently outside Fremont.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Jessica von Borck puts it, “The Warm Springs innovation district is more outward-facing, and finding a place for Fremont within Silicon Valley itself.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city has a slick website called \u003ca href=\"http://www.thinksiliconvalley.com\">Think Silicon Valley\u003c/a>, touting its benefits to tech companies. The city is already home to Tesla Motors and \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/ci_21734967/study-fremont-is-nations-top-city-startup-tech\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a host of tech firms\u003c/a>, and it wants more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are a sleeping dragon,” von Borck says, laughing. “We have a lot of opportunities that are really unknown to a lot of companies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fremont hopes that development around Warm Springs, already the city’s largest employment center, \u003ca href=\"http://fremont.gov/DocumentCenter/View/18691\">will add 12,000 jobs\u003c/a> over the next quarter-century. If all the planning comes together, the sleeping dragon could be about to wake up.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
