Milpitas introduces strict regulations on cannabis deliveries within city limits
By Eric Shapiro, Milpitas Beat, February 23, 2024
“The ordinance,” said a City of Milpitas press release, “establishes sensible regulations that comply with State law and provides access to medicinal cannabis products to qualifying patients while ensuring controls are in place that maximize community safety. It remains unlawful to deliver recreational cannabis within the City.”

Democracy dies at last Milpitas City Council meeting
Here in Milpitas, in 2020, a small, but loud group, some Milpitas Residents, some not, continue to echo 1930s propaganda to try and control the narrative of Cannabis in our wonderful city. The group known as Better Milpitas, over the last couple years, has been successful, using hints of the same rhetoric designed to inspire fear and control from over 90 years ago.

Coronavirus COVID-19 Updates for Milpitas

As the Coronavirus COVID-19 has hit our city and county particularly hard, I will use this post to keep you updated on important information you will need right here in town. Some posts here will be updated with extra links to Covid-19 information related to their usual topics.


COVID-19 Case Rates by City
Zoom in and click on “Milpitas.” Updated 9/1/2022. There has been a huge jump in Covid cases in Milpitas in the past couple of weeks, so I will be updating more often. This map summarizes counts and rates of cumulative COVID-19 cases by cities within Santa Clara County. Cities with higher rates of cases per 100,000 residents appear as a darker shade of blue than cities with lower rates of cases. Date above is the last I saw I checked, but not the last it changed. Do realize that if you drive outside our city borders, or people come to your home or business from other areas, you become part of of a far larger population, and your risk increases. Since this number is cumulative, assume that many of these people have recovered. Compare to other cities in Santa Clara County.

FIELD NAME MILPITAS COVID-19 CASES
Cumulative case count 14,918
Population 77,457
Rate per 100,000 people 19,260

Due to a significant and unresolved problem with the State of California’s CalREDIE reporting system, the County of Santa Clara Public Health Department, as well as county public health departments statewide, are experiencing significant underreporting of COVID-19 testing results. Because of this problem, the information presented in this dashboard/these dashboards since mid-July 2020 is incomplete. We will provide updates on the status of these reporting delays as soon as they are available. Additional information about these delays may be available from the State of California.

COVID-19 Cases and Deaths in all of Santa Clara County
The data on this dashboard provide a look at the number of new cases of COVID-19 and related deaths over time. A case is someone who tests positive for COVID-19 using viral testing performed in a lab. Deaths are listed separately for patients at Long Term Care Facilities because patients in these facilities are more isolated than the general public and represent a particularly vulnerable population. The Public Health Department closely tracks the number of cases and deaths that are being reported each day. Data on deaths will be updated on Fridays.

Most Recent Santa Clara County Risk Reduction Order

ORDER OF THE HEALTH OFFICER OF THE COUNTY OF SANTA CLARA REQUIRING USE OF FACE COVERINGS INDOORS BY ALL PERSONS
DATE OF ORDER: August 2, 2021 This Order is made in light of the recent significant increase in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations in Santa Clara County (“County”), due primarily to the Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Emerging evidence indicates that the Delta variant is more transmissible than prior variants of the virus, may cause more severe illness, and that even fully vaccinated individuals can spread the virus to others. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) now both recommend that all persons—regardless of vaccination status—wear face coverings indoors. Vaccination remains the best and most effective tool in preventing COVID-19 and its harms; evidence shows that even against the Delta variant, fully vaccinated individuals have substantial protection against severe illness, hospitalization, and death. In considering options to stem the rapid increase in COVID-19 transmission, a continued increase in the proportion of the population vaccinated is the best measure available. However, universal indoor use of face coverings is the least disruptive and most immediately impactful additional measure to take.

Covid-19 Testing Available in Milpitas

Rapid COVID-19 Home Tests Go on Sale at Major Retailers

How to apply: Parents/Guardians may submit a written request through the Milpitas Unified School District Learning and Development Office by completing this form (Español / Tiếng Việt). The district will schedule a consultation within 30 days of submitting the form.
