I’m Running for Walnut Creek City Council — Ask Me Anything

I’m Running for Walnut Creek City Council — Ask Me Anything

I’m Brendan Moran, a Walnut Creek Planning Commissioner and City Council candidate.

With ballots going out this week, I’m doing an AMA here tomorrow night from 8–9 PM.

Ask me anything about Walnut Creek, the City Council race, housing, traffic, public safety, downtown, ballot measures, or anything else on your mind.

Looking forward to the conversation.

Downtown restaurants empty??

My husband and I have noticed that the last few Saturdays, some restaurants downtown have been surprisingly empty—even on what should be busy nights like Fridays and Saturdays. Has anyone else noticed this?
We were at Bar Camino on Saturday after Oktoberfest, and it wasn’t busy at all. We just left La Fontaine, and it was completely empty.
What’s going on with some of the downtown Walnut Creek restaurants?! Is anyone else seeing this, or have there been changes in foot traffic lately?

How was the pokemon drop at Target wc?

Maybe a little off topic to this sub but i’m curious to know, those of you who went to the pokemon drop on Friday 10/2 at Target wc how was it?

Unfortunately I wasn’t able to make it due to work but i’m curious how long the line was and if people were able to secure what they wanted? Just kinda wanted to know what to expect for future drops in our lil town lol

Water filling up a hole after digging in Walnut Creek

Does anyone know why if I dug a hole, it would fill up with water. I checked our irrigation and there are not any problems with our irrigation. Maybe from my neighbor who is higher on the hill than me, but I looked at their yard and I don't see any water. I pump the water out, but it just fills back in again in 30 minutes and a lot more after a few hours. Any suggestions. It is about 2 feet deep.

LifeTime members - how is going to the pool?

I am a new LifeTime member and I will admit one quirk about this place is that the locker rooms are at the bottom floor while the pool is at the roof. I would like to use the pool for my workouts so how do fellow swimmers go about going to the pool and down to the locker rooms? I’m sure it would be a bit awkward to go down the elevator in just a towel. Do I need to buy a swimming robe now too? Do I change in the bathroom by the pool just to go downstairs. Such a silly dilemma. I am a female btw.

Tennis Group

Hi everyone!

I just moved the area and was wondering if anyone has any tennis group recommendations, for more advanced players.

Haven’t played in a while (used to live somewhere where weather and transportation were a bit complicated), so looking to get back to it! I did use to play competitively (played some ITF tournaments when I was younger), but still have to get my mojo back!

Looking more for someone to hit with for fun, no pressure or anything!

Private chef recommendations

Hello,

I know this is kind of last minute, but looking for recommendations for an in home private chef for early November who could come to a home in Moraga to do a dinner for 10.

Ideally looking for someone who could do a multi course sit down meal, something simple but high quality cooking and food. Not looking for hibachi or anything of that nature, that is too casual.

Thanks!

Newcomers club?

Has anyone under 40 joined the Walnut Creek Area Neighbors and Newcomers Club or some other newcomers club? A lot of the activities make me think this is not for my age group (earlier 30s) lol. Looking for experiences with this group or similar. Alternatively other ways to find people in their 30s. I go to lifetime and see so many people my age but connecting at the gym can be difficult and awk when everyone is working out and rushing out after.
