SPECIAL TREAT FOR THOSE WHO LOVE THE HILLS. The Formation of the Town of Los Altos Hills.

FACT! PAST MAYOR, TONI CASEY WANTS THE OPTION OF SELLING TOWN OWNED PROPERTY. Listen to this audio clip from the January 17, 2002 council meeting. This is a 50 second audio clip in which our mayor, Toni Casey, states that the reason why the council was requesting that a deed restriction be removed from the O'Keefe property was to "give the council the option of selling the O'Keefe property" and use the money to "have along-road pathways for everyone in Town."

Complete Town Council meetings have been video taped and converted unedited into multi-media formats that can be viewed or heard over the web. We now offer audio, low band width video and audio and high speed video/audio stream web video of council meetings.

This format offers several advantages to regular cable based broadcasting by:

(1) Anybody with an Internet Connection and multi-media computer can view the video.
(2) The council meeting videos can be viewed at any time day or night and even council meetings that occurred 6-12 months ago can be view with a click of the mouse.
(3) Particular meeting segments can be referenced in emails that can be easily distributed to those interested in particular town votes and discussions.
(4) Very low cost to record, convert and to host these web-based video files on the Internet.
(5) This web-based medium can research for LAH residents far more conveniently and cost effectively that cable based distribution.
