A number of concerns has prompted me to cancel tomorrow’s HUFF meeting at the Sub Rosa Cafe. These include:
(1) a conflict with the Coastal Commission hearing where I’m
presenting an argument against the City Council’s five-year ban on the
Main and Cowell Beaches;
(2) the Sub Rosa impressario Jacine advising me he’s sick and likely won’t be able to open the area tomorrow;
(3) the cancellation of all of Chief Andy Mills anti-homeless 7-Point plan meetings this week;
(4) the Corona virus scare making public meetings a tad less desirable than usual has prompted
(5) low attendance at the last few meetings which prompted a
suggestion we meet every other week–as HUFF was doing before we
coalesced with the now moribund
Conscience and Action group, and
(6) the fact that the Coastal Commission agenda item is at an
uncertain time–anytime between 9 AM and late afternoon, requiring
continued presence there though I’m not too clear I’ll have the stamina.
The Coastal Commission begins its hearings in Scotts Valley at the Hilton Hotel at 9 AM at 6001 La Madrona Drive.
Wed Afternoon Coastal Commission— Defeat the 5-Year Beach Curfew 6001 La Madrona Dr. Hilton Hotel .
The item of interest to me and perhaps other HUFFsters is w22c at
https://www.coastal.ca.gov/meetings/agenda/#/2020/3
. It comes up at an uncertain time–though likely after lunch
sometime. I and a number of others are claiming the 5-year
ban on being present on the beach at night is another anti-homeless
move, unjustified by “crime”, “nuisance”, or “littering” claims.
