Here are a couple of ideas:

- what participation does SCC want to have in the development of a 
Standing General Assembly for GPCA?  There will be a meeting in San 
Mateo County this month, organized by Jo Chamberlain and Jonathan Lundell.

- If the GP-SCC wants to do anything for Earth Day, it is about time to 
start planning what that might me.

- Last year, I made a suggestion about using the idea of drinking Green 
Beer on St. Patrick's Day as a reason for a Green Party fundraiser.  Not 
just the wearin' o' the Green, but a livin' o' the Green.  Anyone want 
to take this on?

- Issues: The Santa Clara County Green Party has only one issue on it's 
web site: Bring the Troops Home NOW!!!
Is there energy for others? There are two local issues that were 
endorsed by GPSCC: OpenSpace 2006 (which lost in Nov.) and SaveBAREC 
(Bay Area Research and Extension Center).

What is the status on these local issues?  BAREC is still active... 
Warner was involved, I believe... before the elections consumed all his 
time. The Initiative from PLAN is dead for a while, but there is a 
change in the Land Use Santa Clara County Local Agencies Formantion 
Commission (LAFCO) has proposals for further changes to the processes 
for land use planning.  Do we care?
