To kick off potluck season this year, Alana, Sarah and Ryan invite you to a Fundraising Dinner on Saturday, March 2, 5pm – 8pm. It’ll be at Studio One (365 45th St) which is just a few blocks from our condo.
There will be an awesome taco bar, lots of local craft beer and so many amazing prizes to bid on and win! It’s a great way to get to know more of our neighbors while supporting Emerson Elementary, our neighborhood’s public school where over 75% of the students come from low-income families.
Tickets are $30 per person and it includes dinner and 2 drink tickets. On event day, tickets are $40 at the door. Get Tickets Now: ourschool.auction/Emerson2024 (click “Tickets” at the top).
If you have questions, or would like to walk over to the event as a group from the pool deck, please contact Alana or Sarah.
Thank you so much for your support! We look forward to an amazing 2024 potluck season!

I typically look at the Project objectives, then at the significant unavoidable impacts for each alternative. It is typical that meeting the project objectives is used to rationalize any legislative decision to recommend a preferred alternative that has significant unavoidable impacts.
One other table to comparatively assess is the scope summary of each alternative studied. This provides an easy reference of various elements, such as the number of units of housing, parking count, commercial and other space SF, etc.
