Save Wawona, let children have it for a play-toy. :P BTW, check out my July 26 MHN blog entry on a proposed city historic district for the wooden piers. It's all part of Mayor Nickels' big vision for the downtown waterfront, post-Viaduct. Joe

The helpfull folks at Steinbrueck's office wrote to inform me that today's meeting is not an official public hearing on the Wawona. Peter wanted to clarify that we are not having an official Public Hearing on the Wawona. We plan on having Karen Gordon of the Office for Historic Preservation discuss the Wawona situation during Peter's regularly scheduled Urban Planning and Development (UDP) Committee on July 12 at 2PM. However, like all of our committees, there will be limited time for public comment at the beginning of the meeting where folks can speak for two minutes on topics on the UDP agenda, of which the Wawona is one of them. Still a great opportunity to speak, but I just didn't want folks to think this was a big public hearing, which is somewhat of a different animal. (Public Hearings are stand-alone hearings usually held in the evening, are advertised about 30 days in advance, are attended by the entire Council, and go on all evening until there is no one left who wants to testify. Public comment time is generally limited to about 15 minutes so the Council can get on with the rest of what is a usually packed committee agenda.)
