Letters should be a maximum of 350 words long, and should include the full name, address and phone number of the writer for verification purposes. Published letters will include the writer’s name and city/town of residence. Letters must be accurate, cannot involve personal attacks on people or businesses, cannot be defamatory, and cannot include charges without verifiable information to be considered for publication.  Lamorinda Weekly reserves the right to refuse publishing a letter submission.
