Hillcrest Town Council meeting

Juli Peters-Hyde (HTC Development Committee chair)addressing the Hillcrest Town CouncilThe January meeting of the Hillcrest Town Council (HTC) was held tonight in the SDPD Community Relations office because of recent fire-related flooding at the Joyce Beers Community Center. An overview of crime and security measures in Hillcrest was presented by a representative of Off Duty Officers (hired by Hillcrest’s Maintenance Assessment District and the Hillcrest Business Improvement Association), SDPD officer David Serwilo who recently was appointed the community relations officer for Hillcrest and Bob Lehman founder of Stonewall Citizens Patrol.
Juli Peters-Hyde (pictured) provided the group with an update of the Development Committee and introduced Leo Wilson, Uptown Planners chairperson, who spoke about proposed high-rise developments and the Uptown Community Plan update. The group unanimously approved sending a letter to our council member requesting a review of the permit granted the proposed Tower on Fifth. B. Michael Seidel advised the group of a letter sent to Councilwoman Toni Atkins and other government representatives expressing the sentiment of the HTC with regards to the Interim Height Ordinance (IHO) boundaries. The HTC wants the IHO southern boundary to be Upas Street (not Brookes as the City has proposed).
Litter committee chair Tim Gahagan promoted this Saturday’s clean-up from 9am-noon. Meet on Park Boulevard just south of University Avenue. Brooms and supplies will be available. A dumpster for neighbor use will be located in the parking lot of Numbers (3811 Park Boulevard).
The next HTC meeting will be held on Tuesday, February 12th (hopefully back at our usual location) with guest speakers including City Planning Director Bill Anderson and Councilwoman Toni Atkins.
