520 Posts: Sunroom Desk Marks First Anniversary


Sunroom Desk came online October 28, 2008. Since then, the blog has added 520 news items, commentaries and calendar announcements to its archives, covering subjects with a Glendale, California outlook ranging from economic development to traffic and transportation planning.

Local Halloween costume shops’ Made in China inventory was the subject of the first post, which considered the implications for Glendale and the nation’s economy.

The tragic death of a Toll Middle School student at a crosswalk, and conditions for drivers and pedestrians around local schools, were covered in the second post.

Efforts to control placement of cellular transmission sites in this city, and local to national developments on this issue, inspired 79 news stories over the past year. Glendale’s first community meeting to discuss a new draft wireless facilities ordinance is scheduled for tonight.

Thanks to Sunroom Desk subscribers, neighbors, and community leaders for being a great audience and making this a great forum!
