* Sunshine Ordinance Task Force and Ethics Commission Meeting: Friday, May 1, 2-4pm
City Hall, Room 400
The Sunshine Ordinance Task Force's Compliance and Amendments Committee
and the Ethics Commission will meet to discuss ways to improve
communication and cooperation between the two bodies, which have been
at loggerheads numerous times; the meeting could be fairly lively.
Your attendance is encouraged. And since it is not likely that the
meeting will be televised or video-recorded by SFGTV, it will be
extremely helpful if you or someone you know bring a camcorder and/or
still camera. The meeting will be audio-recorded. Please spread the
word about this meeting.
* SFGP Animal Advocacy Working Group Meeting: Monday, May 4, 7:30pm
Golden Era Vegetarian Restaurant, 572 O'Farrell St. (between Leavenworth & Jones near Union Square)
The Group works for animal liberation and welfare in San Francisco, and
helps influence City Hall and the public, to support human/animal
equality. Arrive at 7pm to order dinner, if desired. The meeting
begins at 7:30pm. To find the group, look for the table with the wolf
photo displayed. For more information, call 415-756-8844.
