The November meeting of the Bankers Hill residents group met Monday evening to learn about homeless issues from Sgt. Rick Schnell from the San Diego Police Dept’s Homeless Outreach Team (HOT); Andy Hamilton spoke about Vision San Diego and encouraged the residents group to be involved in the process (an online survey will be available the end of November); Meredith Dibden-Brown, with the City’s Planning & Community Investment shared information about area parking meter money and the upcoming elections for two Bankers Hill residents and three business owners to sit on their newly formed advisory board; and over $1,000 in gift certificates were raffled off to those in attendance in the Great Hall of St. Paul’s Cathedral. There will be no December meeting. The next gathering will be Monday, January 16 (third Monday of the month).
