Hi All,
Phaedra Fisher, an LPSF Facebook Friend (she attended a couple of our meetings a while back) reminded us today about the San Francisco Citizens Advisory Committees. Apparently, agencies such as the Transportation Agency, Planning Agency, etc. have these committees as means of accepting input from the general public. I could not find a website specifically for "Citizens Advisory Committee;" each agency announces application deadlines for its own committee. The link Phaedra provided was for the Transportation Authority, who is accepting applications until February 8, 2013. We often claim we do not want to run for political office because we feel we will not get elected; well, getting into one of these committees is just like getting elected! www.sfcta.org/content/view/841/496
