Retired attorney Jon Eisenberg filed civil suit against the City of Healdsburg, charging multiple Brown Act violations in two recent cases that demonstrate what he calls “a pattern of misbehavior that is deeply embedded in the culture of Healdsburg’s city government…” His action focused on what he called the “tainted decision making” in the effort to get Measure O on the ballot and the campaign to get it passed; and the transition to district elections now underway.

The 75th annual REIBT tournament concluded with a second-place finish for the hosting Hounds girls, and a third-place finish for the boys, behind girls champion Justin-Siena and boys winner San Rafael.

It’s getting to be an old story: This is the third straight year a new coach will take control of the team, the sixth time in eight years.

To no one’s surprise, the Healdsburg Prune Packers begin the last full week of PEL (Pacific Empire League) play on Wednesday with an unassailable 5.5 game lead over two second-place teams, their 20 wins against only three losses demonstrating their dominance.
