I'm not sure what traumatizes a mountain lion more, 500 square foot ADUs, or the limitless number of garish, 20,000 square foot mansions that dot the Woodside landscape, not to mention the construction sites loaded with heavy equipment getting ready to make new ones. The Woodside town council was wise to raise the white flag on this one!

Actually had Woodside persisted with this self designation a case could have been made for halting ALL new construction in Woodside and the prohibition of any restrictions of mountain lion activities in the town - they could go wherever they wanted and kill and eat whatever they wanted without fear of even being harassed.
This reversal is a big disappointment for the mountain lion community.

I also want to know if it’s legal to limit development to 800 Sq ft and prohibit basements.
Seems shady too.
