FOGG Alert – July 9, 2010
First, let us give a sincere thank you to all who attended and spoke in support of our neighborhood coalition presentation, led by Asian Neighborhood Design (AND) at the Thursday July 8, 2010 Planning Commission hearing on the Northeast Embarcadero Study.
Presented by Fernando Marti of AND, the coalition of community organizations proposal was a great start and another step to moving ahead towards a finished Study recommendation.
The Planning Commissioners were obviously impressed with the amount of detail that AND presented, as they had nothing to say that could be construed as negative.
We now move ahead into the next arena: PORT COMMISSION MEETING, Tuesday, July 13, 2010, 3:15pm – Ferry Building, 2nd level, Port Commission Hearing Room.
Even though we had asked to wait until the Port Commission meeting in August, so that AND could complete their project, we are ready to go with our presentation next Tuesday.
We must move forward in unison to succeed in our efforts. We understand the pressure on all of us, with meetings so close together.
That is why we ask that you again make every effort to attend and participate in the Port Commission hearing on Tuesday, July 13. This meeting is no less important than the Planning Commission meeting.
We are sure you will make every effort to attend, and will update you on the Port Commission’s agenda as soon as it is available.
