The Bankers Hill Residents Group (BHRG) held their first monthly meeting at the San Diego Indoor Sports Club, 3030 Front Street on Monday, February 17 with 66 neighbors and friends in the audience.
Rep. Susan Davis addressed the crowd and filled them in with Congressional updates before taking questions. She was followed by two city-led discussions on 1) a streetcar line along the west side of Balboa Park. A follow-up workshop will be held on Saturday, March 1 at St Paul’s Cathedral from 10am-2pm…and on the painted bike lanes that will be completed soon along Fourth Ave and Fifth Ave south of Laurel Street to Date. The meeting ran a half an hour late ending at 8:30, but a great conversation was had by those who stuck around.
Next month’s meeting (Monday, March 17) will be on a hot topic — being homeless in Uptown. Residents and businesses in all neighborhoods are welcome to attend and participate in the discussion.
Everyone is invited to attend the monthly meetings of the Bankers Hill Residents Group on the Third Mondays. To arrive in a vehicle, turn west onto Palm from First Avenue just north of the bridge. After one block make a right (north) onto to Front Street…you won’t be able to miss it. They have lots of free parking, however the BHRG promotes walking and biking to the new venue if possible.
The Bankers Hill Residents Group welcomes interaction as we work to improve our community. The organization is led by a handful of volunteers who do everything from setting the agenda to cleaning up the neighborhood and promoting pedestrian safety. There are no dues to be a member of the BHRG, but the rewards are priceless. Please consider being a part of the steering committee. Phone (619) 298-0779 for more information on become involved.
Bring a neighbor to the SD Indoor Sports Club to the next meeting. All are welcome. 3030 Front Street in Bankers Hill.
