With simultaneous events going on at UCSC (Volunteer Fair) and Watsonville (Project Homeless Connect) where HUFF is tabling in search of volunteers and contacts, I predict a scaled down meeting. Still, Baldwin Park attorney Paul Cook will be rolling through town next Monday and offering to help train people in filing Small Claims Court claims. We’ll be following up on the “Performance Pens” coming up at City Council next Tuesday, sending out symbolic support to homeless activists and foodservers being harassed in For Lauderdale, FL, and planning a HUFF-in at the City Attorney’s office to get a written “yes” or “no” to “Push Back” Pat Colby’s request for a disability dispensation to the Move Along law on the mall. Make it if you can. We’ll supply the coffee and the cranky.

HUFF resumes drinking and debating 11 AM Wednesday 10-22 703 Pacific
HUFF is doing its thing again tomorrow–looking forward to adding a little Truth Through Sarcasm at the next City Council meeting which may be (a) criminalizing people in the parks for up to a year without trial, and (b) setting up the promised performer cages on Pacific Avenue. I’ll also be seeking volunteers for an End Police State in Santa Cruz protest at Center and Laurel at 2 PM. We’ll be reviewing the latest contortions of the City Attorney’s office around the Camping Ban. And more!
