Breakout Session

Community Voices

Community talks:

“When are we getting our Rec Center updated?”

“We need advocacy that speaks for the people and gives them a voice, a vote, and transparency.”

“Phase 2, phase 3, does it matter if they keep changing plans?”

“There are so many information that the community wasn’t exposed to.”

“We really need to protect that fund.”

Group Action Focus

Put pressure on the city to start development on the Mira Mesa Community Park Expansion Phase 2 before a recreation center in 3Roots. 

Protecting the Mira Mesa Community Fund:

  • Transparency for the all transactions from this fund.
  • Equitable Representation for submitting request for this fund for all residents.  The majority of this fund was spent by a few people that empowered themselves to manage it.  No more!
  • Accountability from the City of San Diego!  The City is aware of the history of these funds and must be accountable for any mismanagement.
  • Protection for this fund.  The City has no right to spend these funds due to their mismanagement of other community funds.
  • Growth for this fund.

 

Protect the Mira Mesa Epicentre:

  • Transparency for the lease negotiation
  • Equitable Representation for the community to be present when the lease is presented to the City Council
