Unique City Meetings in April

April 2006 has some interesting committees meeting that are open to the public. Besides the first regular "First Friday Council Meeting" in the Valley Municipal Building, there are two other meetings of interest I'd like to share:




1. On April 21, 2006, the Public Art Committee of the Department of Cultural Affairs (DCA) will meet in the Cultural Affairs Commission Room at 12:30pm, as it does on the 3rd Friday of each month. Contact the City Art Collection Manager via the DCA webpage. This committee oversees donations and acquisitions to the City Public Art Collection. (For more information on the City's Public Art Collection, see this City Nerd Post.




2. The next Regular Meeting for the "Steering Committee for the 3-1-1/E-Government Project" is on April 13, 2006 at 1:30pm in the CAO Conference room on the 15th floor of City Hall East. This group was established almost SIX years ago (May 2000) and meets the second Tuesday of the month.

These are the type of meetings where, if a regular citizen attends and gets involved, they may actually have some influence on the decisions made. Attend if you can, and let me know how it goes!
