Tri-Valley Innovation Fair
Experiencing and engaging engineering, science and technology is the driving theme for the seventh annual Tri-Valley Innovation Fair, coming to the Alameda County Fairgrounds in Pleasanton next weekend.
Designed as “a dynamic, interactive event designed to inspire all age groups”, the free event put on by the Livermore-based Quest Science Center will offer activities, information and presentations indoors and outside from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. next Saturday (April 12).
“With over 80 exhibitors and a series of engaging performances throughout the day, the Innovation Fair highlights our region’s diverse achievements and offers hands-on opportunities to explore, experiment and ask questions,” organizers said. “This year, the Innovation Fair is introducing two exciting exhibit halls on healthcare and biotech and sustainability and planetary health.”

Update on absent Pleasanton police blotter
The Pleasanton Police Department is changing its online system for publicly reporting data related to service calls and arrests in the city, which is why its “Police Blotter” webpage has not been updated since Dec. 16.
The Weekly, which relies on the blotter for its Cop Log in the newspaper, has not been able to publish the popular feature in more than three months as a result. The new crime map and police blotter are now expected to be fully activated later this month, according to the department.
The police department didn’t provide any police blotter while updating their computer system? That seems to be in direct violation of open records laws. Surprising the Weekly hasn’t demanded these public records.
