The statement on the postcard has been misplaced. It essentially asked whether a 20,000 square foot limit should be applied to the grocery store in this plaza (in 1999, it was a Lucky's which became an Albertson's).

Surveys: BPA Members only

Typically sent in issue of BPA Newsletter other than the Winter issue, or sent as a special mailing.

November 1996: Survey on "Monster Houses" (ones that could be deemed inappropriately large for their lots): Introduction and Questions and results
This survey was distributed by US mail to BPA members only. This was at the beginning of the City's consideration of restrictions on changes to "historic houses." and the BPA Board and many others in southern Palo Alto were concerned that the potential restrictions (interim and permanent) would simply shift the problem from one neighborhood to another. If the City was persuaded to take a broader view of the problem, the BPA Board wanted to have a good sample of neighborhood opinion to present to the City.
