Westwind Barn to post signs as safety measure

The signs will read: "Pass at your own risk. You assume that risk, whether known or unknown, in the presence of horses."

City approves franchise agreement with Metricom

Los Altos Hills City Council directed the town's city attorney last week to prepare a franchise agreement with Metricom to install wireless data equipment.
