SHOW NOTES - 06/12/10 - DESTINATION BAYFRONT 101

On Tuesday, June 15 at 2PM, Destination Bayfront will make a short presentation to City Council during which we will ask them to endorse our community process to create a great public space along our Bayfront. This is a very important meeting, and we are hoping to fill the room so City Council can see that this is an idea fully supported by the community. Please join us in the Council Chambers at City Hall at 2 pm on next Tuesday - and tell your friends about the meeting.
