Upcoming Meetings

Our May meeting will feature a presentation by the League of Women Voters on June 2008 ballot measures. With the contention about Propositions 98 and 99, the possible effect on rent control, restrictions on public programs and eminent domain, we should all be well informed before casting our ballots.

The June meeting will focus on the proposed rebuilding of Hayes Valley Playground in a public private partnership. See details elsewhere in the Voice. We will also consider a proposal from the French American International School to convert the former Harley Davidson dealership on Page Street to an educational venue.

Tentative plans for July call for a review of the Living Street conversion of Linden Street, which is scheduled to be complete by that time. Perhaps we’ll be able to have at least a portion of our meeting there!
