I assume we want to do this, right?

Date: Tue, 19 Sep 2006 15:07:17 -0700 Dear John-Marc, How about we make SF Greens an affiliate group of TALC then? It's free and means less involvement.

Re: [Transpo] Support from the TWG?

I think the Bazaar Cafe is a good, centrally-located place -- and much better than my two- room studio. I also have a call list of nearby Greens that I can give to Emily -- though they did NOT turn out for our excellent event there with Krissy, Terry, Scrumbly, and new face Austin Willacy.

We could sponsor a house party if somebody has a good location in mind. We might use the Bazaar Cafe if there's no better house.

I'm in on the house party. Kim Knox and Sarah Lipson also live in D1, and I have a small list of Green Party people who live around me to call.

Support from the TWG?
by Emily Drennen 28 Aug '06

28 Aug '06

Hey all, I would love some support/help for my BART campaign. Would you all as TWG (or as individuals) help me raise money for my campaign? I have a serious shot at winning. But I need the support of sustainable transportation advocates and others to make it happen. Any ideas? Thanks!

free MUNI?
by John-Marc Chandonia 27 Aug '06

27 Aug '06

OK, it's probably just a political ploy, but Dufty has brought up the idea of free MUNI. We should write his office to indicate our support. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2006/08/25/BAGRFKP4KE1.DTL JMC -- John-Marc Chandonia (jmc(a)sfgreens.org) http://sfgreens.org/

Re: [Transpo] next meeting, parking tax

I'm happy to endorse it. We don't need a meeting. Hope you can all make it to Krissy's event on Wednesday night at the Bazaar Cafe, 5927 California between 21st and 22nd avenues, 7 to 9 p.m. Sue -- John-Marc Chandonia <jmc(a)sfgreens.org> wrote: Hi, The text of the parking tax ordinance is available here: http://www.sfgov.org/site/uploadedfiles/election/Candidates_&_Campaigns/Par… The two main things it does are increase the tax on parking lots from 25% to 35% (with the extra 10% going to the General Fund), and extend the tax to cover valet parking as well as parking lots. I would prefer that the extra 10% be directed to MUNI, and that "free" parking lots be taxed as well, but I'm still happy to endorse this ordinance. Is there any other business we need to cover at our regular meeting tomorrow? Are there any concerns about us recommending that the SFGP endorse the parking legislation? If not, let's just skip this month's TWG meeting and make the decision online.

Werbach Becomes A Wal-Mart 'Associate'...
by Eric Brooks 16 Aug '06

16 Aug '06

Hey all, Adam Werbach is now working for Wal-Mart in its supposed eco-friendly overhaul; an absolute impossibility for a company with the structural and philosophical model of Wal-Mart. Read the SF Guardian article at: http://www.sfbg.com/printable_entry.php?entry_id=1353 Cheers, Eric
