"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 shop is so small, it’s housed in a converted garage parking space. In early March, Fractal Flora closed off its retail area but allowed people to walk up to the storefront and point out what they wanted from inside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And then when shelter in place came into effect [in \u003ca href=\"https://www.sccgov.org/sites/covid19/Pages/public-health-orders.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Santa Clara County\u003c/a>], we decided to close down the retail side completely,” Kim said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As weddings across the region were canceled or postponed, their flower orders dried up as well.

But a few weeks in, she got a call from the Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We had been reported for doing these pickups, and it was unauthorized,” Kim said. “We had to stop immediately or we would be fined.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On May 4, Santa Clara County announced that it would start easing restrictions, but not for flower shops. Kim can only deliver. She’s not allowed to offer curbside pickup. Because she’s the only employee left at Fractal Flora, she’s left to do all the deliveries herself, even as she receives an influx of orders for Mother’s Day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can only do so much, so we’re putting a limit on how many orders we can accept,” Kim said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The Wholesale Flower Market\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The story is similar for flower shops throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, including wholesalers. Rob Shibata runs \u003ca href=\"http://www.mteden.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mount Eden Floral Wholesale\u003c/a>, one of the largest wholesalers in the region. When shelter-in-place orders were announced, Shibata had to shut down his warehouse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We had to dump or give away our entire inventory of fresh flowers,” Shibata said. “That was well into six figures of what we had to discard.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On May 4, Shibata was able to finally reopen, but only for delivery. He understands his warehouse is considered non-essential, and he doesn’t want the virus to spread further, but he’s confident he could maintain social distancing. What’s the difference, he wonders, between ordering a pizza versus ordering a bouquet of flowers?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the difference to the government is that it’s simpler to make a one-size-all-fits rule, regardless of whether there’s a difference in the public health risk,” Shibata said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Select wholesalers in California have been able to reopen for distribution, including the \u003ca href=\"https://www.sanfranciscoflowermart.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">San Francisco Flower Mart\u003c/a>, which reopened on April 22, and the \u003ca href=\"http://originallaflowermarket.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Los Angeles Flower Market\u003c/a>, which reopened on May 8.

But the store owners must spend 75% of that loan on payroll within eight weeks. Otherwise, the loan won’t be forgiven, and she’ll be on the hook to pay the interest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s definitely a mixed bag, because, ‘Yay, we got the loan!’ ” Kim said. “But now I’m apprehensive about spending it because I don’t know if that loan will be forgiven.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Again, Kim had to lay off her six part-time employees months ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If I can’t spend 75% of that loan in two months,” Kim said. “I feel like I have no choice but to give it back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Rob Shibata runs \u003ca href=\"http://www.mteden.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mount Eden Floral Wholesale\u003c/a>, one of the largest wholesalers in the region. When shelter-in-place orders were announced, Shibata had to shut down his warehouse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We had to dump or give away our entire inventory of fresh flowers,” Shibata said. “That was well into six figures of what we had to discard.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On May 4, Shibata was able to finally reopen, but only for delivery. He understands his warehouse is considered non-essential, and he doesn’t want the virus to spread further, but he’s confident he could maintain social distancing. What’s the difference, he wonders, between ordering a pizza versus ordering a bouquet of flowers?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the difference to the government is that it’s simpler to make a one-size-all-fits rule, regardless of whether there’s a difference in the public health risk,” Shibata said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Select wholesalers in California have been able to reopen for distribution, including the \u003ca href=\"https://www.sanfranciscoflowermart.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">San Francisco Flower Mart\u003c/a>, which reopened on April 22, and the \u003ca href=\"http://originallaflowermarket.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Los Angeles Flower Market\u003c/a>, which reopened on May 8.

Gavin Newsom. But the rules are also about to loosen for retailers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You will have the capacity as a retailer to begin to reopen for pickup: clothing, bookstores, florists — with Mother’s Day coming up,” Newsom said in a press conference on May 4.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But those loosening restrictions don’t apply to Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, San Mateo and Santa Clara counties, and the city of Berkeley — non-essential and non-outdoor businesses still can’t provide curbside pickup services.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Good News, a Little Too Late\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Fractal Flora recently received good news — the shop will receive a $32,000 Paycheck Protection Program loan from Chase Bank. But the store owners must spend 75% of that loan on payroll within eight weeks. Otherwise, the loan won’t be forgiven, and she’ll be on the hook to pay the interest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s definitely a mixed bag, because, ‘Yay, we got the loan!’ ” Kim said. “But now I’m apprehensive about spending it because I don’t know if that loan will be forgiven.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Again, Kim had to lay off her six part-time employees months ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If I can’t spend 75% of that loan in two months,” Kim said. “I feel like I have no choice but to give it back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

He gave his first speech at San Jose’s City Hall protesting local noise and air pollution when he was eight. For years, he has been a regular fixture at Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority meetings, advocating for improved bus and light rail service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael Harris, a college student who is volunteering in Woodmansee’s campaign, said he met Woodmansee when they were high school students participating in the YMCA’s Youth and Government program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I knew from the moment I met him, this guy is made for politics,” Harris said. “He can connect with people, he cares about people, and he really tries to represent everyone. That’s immediately what drew me to Marshall.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Woodmansee is from a family that lives their mantra of environmental sustainability. He and his father did the plumbing, electrical and structural components on the family’s property, a former bar. Together with his best friend Cameron Kemske, he jackhammered the bedrock underneath the house to make a livable basement. No one in the family drives regularly. They replaced a 1968 Dodge pickup truck they once used for hauling building material with an electric bike with a huge trailer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Woodmansee’s mother is Tessa Woodmansee, a longtime clean air and transportation activist and serial door knocker. “I’ve seen her doing it my whole life, so I’m comfortable doing it,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For years, family dinners included a steady diet of issues including climate change and gun violence. Plugging away at college classes, he became resentful and anxious about his inability to make a difference.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eventually, his mother said to him, “You can go that path, you know, of being aggravated and angry. Or you could be a leader.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Woodmansee answered her challenge by running for office.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Fourteen-Hour Days\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Woodmansee and contenders Ruben Navarro and Jake Tonkel are running against incumbent Devora Davis to represent San Jose’s politically influential \u003ca href=\"https://www.sanjoseca.gov/home/showdocument?id=23713\">District 6\u003c/a>, which has about 100,000 residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To reach young voters, Marshall visits high schools, hosts music and arts events, and livestreams on Facebook and Twitter.

That’s immediately what drew me to Marshall.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Woodmansee is from a family that lives their mantra of environmental sustainability. He and his father did the plumbing, electrical and structural components on the family’s property, a former bar. Together with his best friend Cameron Kemske, he jackhammered the bedrock underneath the house to make a livable basement. No one in the family drives regularly. They replaced a 1968 Dodge pickup truck they once used for hauling building material with an electric bike with a huge trailer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Woodmansee’s mother is Tessa Woodmansee, a longtime clean air and transportation activist and serial door knocker. “I’ve seen her doing it my whole life, so I’m comfortable doing it,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For years, family dinners included a steady diet of issues including climate change and gun violence. Plugging away at college classes, he became resentful and anxious about his inability to make a difference.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eventually, his mother said to him, “You can go that path, you know, of being aggravated and angry.

The classic Benny Goodman song, “In the Mood,\" plays courtesy of a live jazz ensemble, and the audience starts dancing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As an audience member, you are not just watching, but you are participating,\" he said. \"Imagine yourself walking onto a movie set from the 1940s, in an internment camp dance hall.

"content": "\u003cp>It’s probably a common sight during your commute — electric scooters zooming down or being abandoned on sidewalks. The \u003ca href=\"https://www.sanjoseca.gov/your-government/departments-offices/transportation/micro-mobility\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">City of San Jose\u003c/a> wants to be the first in the world to keep electric scooters in the bike lane.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Simran Rakhra, a fourth-year student at San Jose State University, rides Lime scooters occasionally when she’s running late to class. She said she usually rides on whatever path is the fastest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Honestly, if there’s a bike lane, I usually go on the bike lane so that I’m not in the way of people,” Rakhra said. “But if there’s nobody there, I’m going to be on the sidewalk.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='Sam Liccardo, San Jose Mayor']‘I can’t tell you what the technology is going to be or whether it’ll be a whole assortment of them. But we’re going to use that as a standard for the rest of the industry.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to California \u003ca href=\"https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/dmv/detail/vr/scooters\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">state law\u003c/a>, electric scooters are allowed on bike paths, lanes, or trails, but not on sidewalks. But enforcing the law is an entirely different beast to tackle. The City of San Jose took the problem to the scooter companies themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo said the city is working with several app-based scooter companies to keep riders in bike lanes — and off sidewalks — using technology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can’t tell you what the technology is going to be or whether it’ll be a whole assortment of them,” Liccardo said. “But we’re going to use that as a standard for the rest of the industry.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One technology most companies are using is geofencing. It uses a person’s location and creates boundaries that a user has to stay in — similar to how Google Maps creates a specific geographic perimeter for a person to get to his or her destination. If the person deviates from that path, the app knows and will reroute accordingly to get back within the boundary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.li.me/en-us/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Lime\u003c/a> is using geofencing — and detection technology — in its proposed solution to the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you look at the surface of a road compared to the surface of a sidewalk, they feel very different,” Sam Kang, Lime’s government relations director, said. “Where the road will be bumpier and inconsistent, the sidewalk tends to be smoother and whatever grooves it has tends to be a lot more consistent because of the tiles … that most sidewalks has.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related content\" tag=\"scooters\"]Lime scooters detect those differences and can identify with 95 percent accuracy whether someone is riding on the sidewalk or the road. Riders who spend more than half of their journey on a sidewalk get a reminder on their phone that riding on the sidewalk is illegal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And for more habitual offenders, we can send them a more stern warning and we can experiment with different educational ways in which we can try to alter rider behavior,” Kang said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://gruv.app\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Grüv\u003c/a>, another electric scooter company, plans to go a step further with their new software, according to co-founder Alex Nesic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Rather than simply informing riders of bad behavior with the hope of nudging them toward better behavior, our approach is designed to decrease the vehicle speed to five miles per hour on sidewalks in real-time while alerting the rider simultaneously of the reason why,” Nesic said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Colin Heyne, a public information manager with the San Jose Department of Transportation, said he has yet to see a company in San Jose that incorporates all of the e-scooter safety technologies available — one that detects sidewalk riding and one that reduces an e-scooter’s speed when on the sidewalk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our next step will be to limit deployment of the [scooter] devices in the area defined in our regulations until companies are ready to deploy devices that meet our regulatory requirements,” Heyne said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city hopes to eventually require companies to incorporate the safety technologies that will encourage riders to stay away from sidewalks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rakhra, the SJSU student, said she rides her scooter on the sidewalk because she doesn’t always feel safe riding on the road. As she stands on 2nd street in downtown San Jose, she said, “If I’m trying to cross here, there is no bike lane … so it just depends on where you’re at.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",
