1050 Valencia Project
Two important meetings regarding the project at 1050 Valencia (the former Spork building).
This week: Thursday, January 12 at 6:30pm, 10 Hill Street
This meeting will be at Risa’s house to discuss our position and
presentation as regards the new plans being reviewed for the
development previously at 1050 Valencia Street, now being submitted as
One Hill Street.
Next week: Tuesday, January 17 from 5:50pm, Mission Cultural Center, 2868 Mission Street, La Salita meeting room on the second floor.
This meeting is with the Architect, Stephen Antonaros, where he will
present his new design and plans for the Spork site. The meeting room
is reserved for three hours, so late-comers will still have time to
stop by.
Please try to attend both meetings if you can. If not both, please
come to the Tuesday meeting next week so that we can show that we are
an active community, paying attention to what’s happening in our
neighborhood.

City Hall Hearing: Utility Box Blight
The San Francisco Planning Dept has given AT&T permission to install 726 utility boxes on public sidewalks throughout the city. Most of these utility boxes will be about 4 feet high, 4 feet wide and 30 inches deep. AT&T is implementing its rollout neighborhood by neighborhood- many affected communities are still unaware of the project and its impact on city sidewalks.
San Francisco Beautiful has filed an appeal, which will be heard by the full Board of Supervisors:
Tuesday, April 26 at 4pm
Board Chambers, 2nd Floor, Room 250
San Francisco City Hall
More information is available at San Francisco Beautiful. Please plan to attend the hearing and support their effort.
Sunday Streets in the Mission on May 8
Sunday Streets 2011 Season continues the tradition of visiting diverse communities throughout the City with a variety of routes in different neighborhoods. While returning to popular areas along established routes, 2011 events will extend into new neighborhoods and include more diverse program elements that highlight each neighborhood’s unique character and often overlooked community attractions and institutions.
Sunday Streets takes place every second Sunday of the month. On Sunday, May 8th will be the Mission neighborhood from 11am to 4pm.
For more information, you can visit sundaystreetssf.com.
At our next meeting we’ll have a speaker from SAFE who will help us organize the neighborhood for the purposes of Neighborhood Watch, creating Block Captains, and incorporating NERT emergency preparedness.
This is great way to know your neighbors and learn what to do – and how you can help – in case of emergency.
The meeting will be held on Monday evening, 4/11 at 6pm at 20 Hill Street.
