“Dear Red Phone, wise old phone, could you please tell me that the construction on Santa Teresa Boulevard will be done soon? I have three children I have to take to school and it is a nightmare. There are only so many ways you can get to certain schools, and you have to use Santa Teresa Boulevard. It’s taking 45 minutes to go 5 or 10 miles. It’s totally ridiculous. I’d like to know when it’s going to be done. Thank you.”
Red Phone:
It’s hardly wise, and it’s definitely not old, but Red Phone forgives you and found an answer.
According to the City of Gilroy’s Steve Beams, the Santa Teresa Boulevard project is expected to wrap up at the end of the year.
Piling on the praise
“Hi, I’ve been stocking up things I want to tell you about. First, I think the aerial photo of the Gilroy High School Garcia Elder Complex was fantastic. There was a great editorial regarding Eliot School. Bonnie Evans’ column is just full of sage advice and humor. It’s a great column. And you’re showing great regard and respect for the family and friends of community members through your new obituary format. And last but not least, a great column by Christine Tognetti. I look forward to reading more of her columns. Thank you.”
Red Phone:
Thanks for the kudos, caller. The Red Phone’s with you on all of it.
Maxed out?
“I’d like to know if there is a maximum number of cars a single family dwelling can have here in Gilroy. Thank you Red Phone.”
Red Phone:
You’re welcome, caller.
According to Gilroy Police Department’s Gary Muraoka, there is no maximum.
“There is no limit or restrictions on how many vehicles you can own, but all the vehicles parked on city streets must be driven and moved every 72 hours and must be currently licensed and registered,” he said.
For those who have problems with abandoned vehicles whose owners do not adhere to the policy, call 846-0320 with the location and vehicle license plate.
Snickerdoodle disaster
“Yeah, it looks like you have a Snickerdoodle recipe that’s incomplete (Sept. 24). You probably already received phone calls about it. It does not include the amount of flour or the amount of cream of tartar. I was thinking about making the cookies, but not the way the recipe is currently. Thank you.”
Red Phone:
Actually, you’re the first. Thanks for the notification. The lifestyles editor caught up with columnist Elizabeth Gage, who apologized for the oversight and revealed the amounts for the ingredients:
• 2 3/4 cups of flour
• 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
Unfortunately, the Red Phone can’t publish the entire recipe again due to lack of space. But for those who missed it, keep an eye on an upcoming edition of the Lifestyles section for a republication of the Snickerdoodle recipe – this time, in it’s entirety.
