The name of Richmond’s Miraflores development translates to “Behold the Flowers,” but it’s the turmoil around this market-rate and affordable housing complex that’s truly a sight to see.Roughly seven years after the project originally promised to build 190 units on 7.3 acres of city-owned land next to Interstate 80, it has completely unraveled, city staff quietly revealed during a community presentation this month.After the developer took out $10 million in loans against the property — without permission from the city — lenders are pursuing foreclosure, the property’s taxes are delinquent, the land has fallen into disrepair and Richmond has declared the developer to be in default.Miraflores, which was set to be built near the Macdonald Avenue commercial corridor and two BART stations, was heralded for years as a key opportunity to revitalize the older residential community within Richmond’s Park Plaza neighborhood, representing the city’s attempts to transiti...Latest line: A good week for Adam Schiff, a bad week for Dianne Feinstein

Q: I was surprised that feedback to you was all that bicyclists should pay more for using our roads.Transportation accounts for 40 percent of California’s greenhouse gas emissions. Bicyclists, choosing climate-friendly transportation, are already suffering the hot mess of our future world caused, to a significant degree, by car drivers. Instead of further taxing bicyclists, we should reward them.Doug McKenzie, BerkeleyA: You make valid points. Once I mentioned that all the feedback to that point supported bicyclists paying more, bicycle supporters started to respond.Q: The issue is whether bicyclists pay their fair share. While they pay less in absolute terms, they do far less damage to roads. They pay more than their fair share.Richard Swent, Palo AltoA: Jeff-an-MTC-spokesman said that, per a national travel survey, 83 percent of cyclists own cars, a percentage point higher than the number of non-cyclists who own cars, which is consistent with his experience.
