📰 News we're reading
• BART fares, bridge tolls set to rise Jan. 1 (mercurynews.com) — San Bruno BART riders will see monthly parking jump by more than $30 starting Jan. 1, alongside a 6.2% systemwide fare hike. Seven major Bay Area bridges, including the San Mateo-Hayward, will also raise tolls by 50 cents as transit agencies confront looming budget gaps and warn of possible future service cuts. 
• Northwest Notes: Dec. 30, 2025 (cdapress.com) — San Bruno is noted as the West Coast Conference dateline where Gonzaga forward Lauren Whittaker was honored again as women’s basketball Freshman of the Week. The standout New Zealand freshman notched 18 points and 16 rebounds in a double-overtime win over LMU, adding to her nation‑leading double-double tally among freshmen and reinforcing Gonzaga’s strong presence in conference awards.
• And finally: A tribute to Sam Broadway and KEPW Newsday (wholecommunity.news) — San Bruno police recently faced a first-of-its-kind traffic stop when officers pulled over a driverless Waymo robotaxi that made an illegal U-turn during a DUI enforcement operation, but couldn’t issue a standard ticket because there’s no category for a robot. That quirky local moment appears in a year-end tribute to KEPW’s Sam Broadway, highlighting offbeat and feel-good stories from around the country.
