We recently won a year-long lawsuit against the City of Dublin! The lawsuit opposed the city's decision to put Measure II on the ballot without environmental review. Measure II would've allowed for commercial development, like warehouses, destroying the greenbelt between Dublin and Livermore.

What's this yellow flower popping up on #MountDiablo and its foothills in late summer and in fall?
It's gum plant! This plant is fantastic for Mount Diablo's #pollinators, and a lovely bloom to enjoy during this time of year.
