With beautiful Ocean Beach and the Pacific surf behind him, Mayor Brown will respond to Task Force recommendations, as well as offer his appreciation, on the occasion of the Task Force's first anniversary. There is only one Ocean Beach, and protecting its unique character is the number one priority for an uncommon task force of citizen groups and government agencies. The Ocean Beach Task Force is holding its first quarterly review tonight, Wednesday, June 7, at 6PM in City Hall room 201. Mayor Brown will open the meeting with remarks about his priorities for the Beach.
Public attendance is welcome.
Government-related Task Force members include representatives of the San Francisco Environment Department, Recreation and Parks Department, Department of Public Works, Public Utilities Commission, California Coastal Commission, Golden Gate National Recreation Area and the Army Corps of Engineers. Also on the Task Force are neighbors and community members, and members of Friends of Ocean Beach, Surfrider Foundation, and the Golden Gate Audubon Society. Friends of Ocean Beach director Lara Truppelli chairs the Task Force. The Task Force has been meeting the first Wednesday of each month since March. Ocean Beach is a special part of San Francisco's natural history and we're not about to let it slip into ruin, or get swept away by winter storms.
