Just a few reminders for today. Primarily since this is occuring at about 5/5:30pm today in downtown. @ 534 N. Alameda & Temple the Centro CSO is going to have a gathering regarding the detention of immigrant families. I am unfamiliar with the exact details, so please. If you are in the area and see this event going on, ask one of the demonstrators. They want to spread the word on this issue.
I was asked to film/document this event, and if i am still downtown at the time i will. I will also attempt to live stream the event if i achieve a viable 'net connection.

Next up, some reminders. the Boyle Heights Budget & Finance Committee is meeting at the Benjamin Franklin Library on Wednesday the 4th of November, at 6pm. This is where Council and Committee members discuss how to spend the money given to the Council by the City of Los Angeles. I.e. Outreach, NPGs, etc. There is a general public comment portion (item 5 on the agenda) where you can make any comments you wish. These comments follow the same rules as with any other meeting as that the committee cannot act/comment on them. But they will/should be recorded. Agenda: http://www.bhnc.net/wp-content/uploads/docs/BudgetA_2015-11-04.pdf
This is to be followed by the Area 1 meeting (at ~630pm). This meeting is a bit more informal. There is a listing on the agenda for General Public Comment, but the meeting its self is pretty much that, as it pertains specifically to Area 1. But i am sure that other area residents are welcome too. Area 1 is the North Western corner of BH. Specifically with the boundries of: Mission, Marengo, Soto, and 4th St. So if you have any ideas, thoughts, questions, comments, concerns regarding Area 1. And want a friendly open forum to voice these so that we can bring them to the board or the city or our representatives. This is where to go. That's what the area meetings are designed for.

Finally. An e-mail was sent out last week regarding the upcoming event's calendar. There IS a correction to be made. The location and time of the next PLUC (Planning and Land Use Committee) meeting has changed.It will now be held across the street @
Boyle Heights City Hall
Community Room
2130 E. First Street,
Los Angeles, Ca 90033
(enter through the parking lot)
@ 6:30pm
Please note the time start change. As we will be having the meeting at the BH City Hall, we are not bound by the 8pm time limit that we have at the library (when it closes). So we can start a little later. Not saying that we will. Just saying that we will have that option.
The agenda is not out yet, but is should be out around late Friday or early Saturday on the BHNC page. The one linked on the BHNC.net page is last month's agenda. I will also upload it to my site and link it here after it has been finalize. One item i know that wil be on the agenda will be a discussion on as to (paraphrase) "how long is considered a reasonable wait time to begin the meeting/wait for quorum/cancel the meeting." Personally i would like to hear what the community is WILLING to wait. 10 minutes? 20? 30? I know that the presenters will wait. But what of the community.
[Also, i was informed that one of the committee members has resigned from the PLUC. This leaves an open position, for a qualified board member.]
