Good morning, Redwood City!
The Australian race car driver charged with vehicular manslaughter for a fatal crash on state Highway 84 in San Mateo County made bail and was released from county jail on Tuesday. According to prosecutors, Luke Nardini, who had been visiting California, was traveling in a BMW at about 55-60 mph in the wrong lane because he is accustomed to driving on the left side of the road in Australia. Spotting the oncoming BMW about 10 feet away, the Taurus driver tried to evade the crash but was struck head-on. Nardini's mom said his family is devastated about the tragedy, and they have set up a GoFundMe to help Luke and his family with lodging and travel costs while they stay in the United States.

The council was meant to discuss the following on Monday: collaboration, ongoing professional development and training, Housing Element implementation, Gatekeeper applications, Central Redwood City Plan, Redwood Life Precise Plan and Environmental Impact Report, and Historic Preservation Ordinance. Monday's discussion did not include the Inner Harbor development.
