Hillcrest’s Most Popular Website with Oodles of Urban San Diego Information

“I’ve never seen the community this galvanized over one issue.”

— Hillcrest activist Nancy Moors re: support for the Interim Height Ordinance

 

The future height of 92103 depends on you! (yes, YOU)

For two+ years the Uptown Independent Task Force has worked to get an Interim Height Ordinance (IHO) for 92103. Next Tuesday, July 8 at 2pm the City Council will decide the future heights of Hillcrest and Mission Hills until the 20+ year-old community plan is updated. Their decision will be the final step to protect Hillcrest. Please attend or urge the City Council members to VOTE YES on this IHO for Uptown.

When: July 8, 2008 at 2pm Where: 202 C Street – 12th Floor (City Council Chambers)
What: Voice your support for the Interim Height Ordinance for Uptown
· Firm Limit (65 feet on Fourth, Fifth and Sixth avenues north of Upas)
· Firm Limit (65' on Washington & University east of Dove)
· Firm Limit (50' on Washington from Dove to Ibis Street)
· Discretionary Review (along Fourth, Fifth and Sixth avenues south of Upas in Bankers Hill)

Come Celebrate with Us! The next regular meeting of the Hillcrest Town Council meeting will be held the same night as the IHO vote (Tuesday, July 8) from 6:30-8pm at the Joyce Beers Community Center (near Trader Joe’s). Area restaurants are donating treats to share at this month’s Meet & Greet. (and hopefully, we will be celebrating the new Interim Height Ordinance for our neighborhood).

 

 

We’ll also be celebrating the completion of the newest HillQuest, an Urban Guide from 10am-6pm on Sunday, July 13th with the Hop in the ’Hood and the Flower Power Parade at 12:30. All HillQuest fans are welcome to join the party on Seventh Avenue between Robinson and Pennsylvania.
