Emotions run hot as city council decides against firing Livermore Planning Commissioner over offensive remark Brandon Sapienza
After an emotional public debate, the Livermore City Council decided against removing Planning Commissioner John Stein, who caused an uproar after saying that affordable housing would create a “ghetto” in the downtown area.
“I really don’t want to see the downtown become a ghetto of affordable housing, and I support inclusionary housing both on a macro and micro scale,” Stein said at an April 20 city council meeting. “I think it should be distributed throughout the city and if we see high-density housing downtown, it should be market rate with maybe 20% affordable rather than entire affordable.”

INDIANAPOLIS The Indianapolis Motor Speedway helped save the Indy 500 for fans, in essence doing itself a huge favor, by having more than 100,000 people vaccinated at the mass COVID-19 clinics it has hosted.
After a year without fans in 2020, Penske Entertainment Corp. said Wednesday its iconic race would be filled to about 40% capacity with 135,000 spectators allowed to attend.
One day after the announcement, Mayor Joe Hogsett urged Marion County residents to not let down their guard in taking steps to prevent the spread of COVID-19 so we can return to the things we love like the Indy 500.
At that same COVID-19 update, Dr. Virginia Caine, director of the Marion County Public Health Department, said the Indy 500 was saved this year due to COVID-19 vaccines and help from IMS.
