Also, we will be voting on some Bylaw changes to our Finance section, and hearing a first reading of changes to the section on Nominating & Elections. Proposed changes can be found on our website: clairemontonline.com
One of the great things about partnering with fellow community councils throughout the city, is learning about how other town councils and community advocacy groups operate. This led to the idea of creating a 501(c)3 foundation -- an idea borrowed from our friends at Mira Mesa Town Council -- in order to provide more significant funding to our community grants and special projects.
Speaking of community special projects, we are just waiting on confirmation from the contractor and the city before they replace the entryway sign at Balboa and 805. All the paperwork has been turned in, and once payment has been made to the contractor, it should be a quick turnaround process.
Finally, set your calendars young padawans. We will be screening Star Wars: The Force Awakens for Movies in the Park on Saturday, July 30th at the Cadman Recreation Center.
If you haven't felt the force and/or have seen this movie yet, please keep in mind that it's rated PG-13, so it might be too intense for younger kids. Otherwise, this is going to be a great summer event! We are lining up family-friendly activities, and we've confirmed appearances from some local stormtroopers.
