Executive Sub Committee Meeting – Open to the Public

Thursday, June 7^th, 2012
10AM – 11AM
Northern Station Community Room at Fillmore and Turk Street

Meeting with Rec & Park and Northern Police Station to discuss some ideals to implement at the Fillmore Mini Park like Saturday morning cartoons, Thursday evening "Welcome to the Fillmore" concert series and food vendors in the park on Saturdays.

The goal is to create a community-public-partnership just as there are public-private-partnerships that are taking over our parks in San Francisco.  We understand the economic challenge that San Francisco is in and the challenge to keep the parks open.  With this partnership we will be able to raise money for our parks and permits to use the facilities at a reduced rate.
