Looking for canvassers for Oakland City area
From our neighborhood partners at Oakland City Community Organization:
The runoff elections on January 5th are quickly approaching, and as a neighborhood, we want to keep the momentum going! While voter turnout in November increased from previous years, as a neighborhood we can do better. To that end, we are looking for volunteers to canvas the neighborhood (we can break it down into streets), and place flyers on mailboxes.If you are interested in this initiative, please email Adriana at secretary@occoatl.org

Monday 12/7 Community Meeting: Subdivision of Property at 1055 Westmont Rd, New Housing
On NPU-S's agenda for December is SD-20-18, a proposal to subdivide several large parcels into 13 separate lots. These new properties, zoned for single family residences, would be in the area between Orlando Place and Westmont Rd. The proposed subdivision is highlighted in pink in the illustration.
Subdivisions are not subject to a vote by the NPU; they are for review and comment only. However, the developers have graciously agreed to meet with members of the community beforehand to give a presentation and discuss the project.
This meeting will be held on Monday, December 7, at 7pm, via Google Meet.
