President's Letter: March 2015

As we begin to head into Spring, that can only mean our 19th Annual Clairemont Garden Tour is fast approaching!

This year's Garden Tour Committee has quickly organized sponsors and gardens for our upcoming tour set for Saturday, May 2 (save the date, folks!). As you may know, this has become the Council's flagship fundraiser for the year. Without the Garden Tour, we would not be able to provide valuable funding towards our community grants which last year helped our Clairemont schools, local organizations, and seniors at LiveWell.

However, we are looking for extra volunteers for this year's tour. We usually need about 30 volunteers throughout the day to assist our homeowners and patrons by providing them a memorable experience. If you'd like to help volunteer for this year's tour, please e-mail us GardenTour@ClairemontOnline.com.

Rep. Peters Announces Free Tax Preparation Sites for Working Families

SAN DIEGO, CA – Today, Congressman Scott Peters (CA-52) called attention to twelve locations in the 52nd Congressional District where residents who qualify can receive free tax filing assistance. The resources offered through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program are available to all Americans with less than $52,000 in annual income.

Volunteers at each VITA site are IRS-certified and help consumers prepare their basic returns and determine their eligibility for tax credits, including the Earned Income Tax Credit and the Child Tax Credit, which they might not otherwise have known they were qualified to receive.

Public Safety Awareness Committee: February 2015

            The community of Clairemont got a huge boost in its crime prevention efforts last weekend when North Clairemont held a Neighborhood Watch kickoff event at Mount Etna Park on Saturday January 24th. The event marked the first of what hopes to be one of many revitalization efforts of Neighborhood Watch programs. This event served the Mount Streets area of Clairemont as a phase in the growing campaign to bridge all of Clairemont in a united crime prevention front.

            There were approximately forty-five (45) residents who attended the kickoff meeting as well as members of the Clairemont Town Council (CTC), City Councilman Chris Cate’s office, Nextdoor.com, and University City Neighborhood Watch. As the CTC Public Safety Awareness Committee (PSAC) Chairman is a serving member of the SDPD Northern Division Captain’s Advisory Board (CAB), Law Enforcement interests were present and shared with the attendees. The event offered a community based open dialogue format that allowed neighbors to share common concerns and identify trouble areas that may be unknown to adjacent neighbors or streets. There were a number of resources shared at the event that helped concerned residents to find solutions to existing or potential criminal opportunities.
