As of Sunday afternoon, September 29th, the Congress has been unable to agree to raise the nation's debt limit to avoid default on payments and a shutdown of all but essential federal government services.

Gil was a terrific friend to the Chamber and an energetic contributor to the City of Pasadena.

Here is his obituary from the Glendale News-Press:

Help with Pasadena's information technology broadband…

The City of Pasadena, along with a subcommittee of Innovate Pasadena, developed this survey to help determine local broadband use and needs. The survey asks about your current broadband / internet connection service and what you think your needs will be in the future.

The survey is confidential.  Results will be used to assess Pasadena's broadband capability and needs.
