2018 Summer Social is Here!
Our Summer Social and Annual Meeting on Saturday, August 18th at Kezar Bar & Restaurant from 1-4p.m. has the ultimate line up! Take this time to meet your neighbors and discuss important issues in the neighborhood, and get introduced to our new D5 Supervisor Vallie Brown, all while enjoying appetizers and libations!
We will also have special guest speaker SF Chronicle columnist Heather Knight. She works out of City Hall covering everything from politics to homelessness to family flight and the quirks of living in one of the most fascinating cities in the world.
Finally, Mayor London Breed is trying to find time in her busy schedule to stop by our little gathering.
For the second year in a row we have many new members thanks to our community partnership with Lavation and we hope to see you there!
RSVP to cviasf@aol.com. $10 per person at the door. Your non-member guests are welcomed with RSVP.
Want to get active with our organization? Make sure to introduce yourselves to the Board members at the meeting. We have lots we want to do and never enough people!
Get to Know CleanPower SF & SFCUU!
CVIA is proud to present an educational evening of presentations about two very important city issues:
First, San Francisco’s upcoming switch to CleanPower SF, a new, green energy power program that will be rolling out soon, and second, SF Coalition to Underground Utilities and their fight to get City Hall to finish undergrounding power lines in order to aid public safety, prevent power failures, and beautify San Francisco.
