We walked to downtown Charlottesville for a lunch at Revolutionary Soup and then returned for the afternoon business meeting. Mel agreed to facilitate our afternoon session. We accepted the minutes with no questions and no modifications. Eric reminded us that he holds money for each local ready to be forwarded upon request. He has started a savings account so that our local money is now earning interest.
Local levies are due at the beginning of the year.
Tidewater Greens are not currently meeting. They are looking at sprawl issues and have been attending other organizational meetings, such as ballot access issues and helping a Natural Law Party candidate. They had a successful tabling at the Community Festival. At the summer retreat we put into action some of the ideas we had been discussing for some time. Sherry reported that she has completed all the work on registering the GPVA as an official PAC with the state.
