Letter: Trustees ‘hiding behind the mantra of we can’t discuss personnel issues’
I am extremely disappointed in all the members of the Gilroy
Time for DNA dog poop tests to stop the drop around Mantelli and Calle del Rey
Dear Editor, I was delighted to see the article in last week's Dispatch about members of an apartment complex in Minnesota having to submit DNA samples from their pets to help identify the owners of dogs who repeatedly left poop on the property. Here in Gilroy, I am amazed by the frequently left droppings from dogs in the area encompassed by Mantelli, Calle del Rey and the Luigi Aprea School areas. Just this morning I counted six separate droppings on the sidewalk along the Pacific West Christian School's side area on Calle del Rey and could not begin to count the piles left on the dirt area long the rest of the school property. The same holds true along many other streets in the area to the point I don't dare look up at the lovely surrounding views while walking my dog in the mornings, as I have to be very vigilant about where I step. Â

Letter: Call illegal invasions what they are
I admired Joe Heller’s cartoon of March 13, 2026. Although captioned WW III, this cartoon brilliantly depicts three confused survivors pulling from the wreckage Trump’s self issued Peace prizes. I admire a photo that can convey in a single picture 1,000 words.
What deeply concerns...
