Apologies to SF PUC re: Street Lamp Still Out on Main Street

I received a note from a SF PUC representative today that provided me with an update on what activity has occurred regarding the two street lamps that I reported as non-working via the 311 service several weeks ago (sometime in early September before I traveled to Michigan, which was September 15th). It turns out that… Keep reading

Focus Group Meetings on Police Foot Patrols in SoMa – Community Input Sought!

Police Captain Daniel McDonagh's Newsletter – October 30, 2007

After the RinconHillSF.org weekly email digest, I’d suggest that our SFPD Southern Station’s Captain’s e-news is the next most important mailing list to get yourself on to stay up with what’s going in the Rincon Hill and other SoMa neighborhoods. Right now, they’re transitioning from Yahoo! Groups to Google Groups, so I thought I’d share… Keep reading

Upcoming Neighborhood Emergency Response Team Training (NERT)

Although NERT training is typically a 6-week deal (making it difficult for me and probably many other busy folks to attend), there is an upcoming two day intensive training session in Bernal Heights that only requires you invest yourself for two full days (8am – 5pm on both November 10th and 17th) of free training… Keep reading

What Would a New Rincon Hill Resident Want to Know?

I have a little bit of a break from my part-time job of teaching University of Phoenix Online courses until November 20th. Although my full-time job seems to be absorbing a lot of that extra time these days (everybody likes to catch up on work on Saturday evenings, right? Right?!?), I hope to create some… Keep reading

High-Speed Rail Update

www.cahighspeedrail.ca.gov The California High Speed Rail Authority appears alive and well still (thank goodness). The Chronicle has a short article in today’s paper (read it here) about Bay Area transportation leaders backing two high-speed train rail routes into the region, one heading north through Pacheco Pass into the San Francisco area and the other running… Keep reading

Re-re-reporting (PG&E's) Out Street Lamp on Main Street, South of Folsom

It is good to be back home in San Francisco after spending four days in Portland. There were a few things I noticed while walking home on the pedestrian walkway along the waterfront tonight. I noticed that Whoopee and Weepy have been removed from their spot on The Embarcadero next to Pier 14. Maybe we’ll… Keep reading
