[GPSCC-chat] Santa Clara County Sustainable Communities

[Wes Rolley]

Received this weekend.. Just getting a chance to clean up my inbox and 
we should all know what is in the works.  Sorry for the short notice.

There is an upcoming event being put on for community leaders in Santa 
Clara County to dive into the Sustainable Community Strategies/Plan Bay 
Areathat I wanted to make sure you knew about. The details of the event 
are below. We're hoping that the event attracts about 30 people who 
represent broader groups of people who will in some way be impacted by 
the SCS. For instance, we're hoping to attract people ranging all the 
way from leaders in Service Employees International Union to leaders 
amongst Gilroy and Morgan Hill's farmers. To date, most of our 
registrants are residents of San Jose, and we'd like to see more 
geographical and place-type variety amongst attendees.
