More information as it becomes available.

San Diego Unified must provide an offer of excess space to Charter schools by April 1 (law has several qualifications of suitability etc.). A proposal to allocate the 8 bungalows on the back of Taft to Magnolia Science Academy #3 will go before the Board on March 27. The agenda item is available at http://www.boarddocs.com/ca/sandi/Board.nsf/goto?open&id=8MMRFC680B22 (near the bottom of the agenda under District Operations, Item I-3) with accompanying documentation. The staff report acknowledges that the deadline pressure did not allow sufficient notice to the Taft community. The SDUSD Board meeting on March 27 begins at 5:30pm.

The grocery store petition drive is now closed.  We gathered 1,708 online signatures and 1,960 paper signatures!

Thanks to everyone who responded. A special thanks goes to all of those volunteers who went door-to-door or who contacted their friends and neighbors collecting additional signatures.

The results of this petition drive have been shared with an owner of the Rancho Serra Mesa shopping center. The owner was very impressed by the outpouring of community support for obtaining a Fresh & Easy Neighborhood Market and will proceed with CVS negotiations. We’ll let you know as soon as we hear the outcome.

Thank you!
