Hillcrest residents learn of Smart Meters
and local medical marijuana dispensaries
The Hillcrest Town Council held its monthly meeting
this evening as SDG&E’s Risa Baron (shown) presented information on
Smart
Meters. 34,000 new devices will be installed throughout Hillcrest
this July and August allowing residents and business owners to monitor
the use of their utilities more efficiently. A panel discussion with
the San Diego Medical Marijuana Task Force followed with general
information shared by vice chair Stephen Whitburn followed by Q&A
with two dispensary owners. The feeling among residents was favorable.
Tim Gahagan asked for a show of support for the Uptown Partnership
spending approximately $500,000 of meter money to purchase new
technology meters. Overwhelming support was given to keeping the
existing meters although a few residents voted to remove them
completely. Neighbors were reminded that the next community clean-up
will be this Saturday, February 13th in preparation of Hillcrest Mardi Gras. Orange Hillcrest volunteer
t-shirts will be given to everyone who shows up to sweep the streets.
Meet under the Hillcrest sign at 8:45am for coffee and cookies prior to
setting out in teams at 9am.
The next town council meeting will be held on Tuesday, March 9th from 6:30-8pm at the Joyce Beers Community Center in the Uptown District.

“Let’s comply with the law. This is an easy one. It’s clearly spelled out in the municipal code. For the life of me, I can’t figure out why I can’t get them to do it.”
