Could Coogie's be leaving? What's up with those Birds? Could "term limits" really happen? Can we save the Santa Monica bungalow? Is crime up on your street? How about those love-bird California Sycamores? Will we ever have a new Police Chief? And then there's "medical" marijuana... Just another day in Mid City. MidCityNeighbors.org Questions from residents: -Update on Bird Scooters: The basic who, what, why overview. (We were nearly hit by two in the past week so curious what’s up with them.) -Update on Legal Marijuana and the Law (We encountered 8 men smoking a 12 inch bong on the bluffs next to road down to the Pier so curious what the city is doing to curb public smoking.) –What's with all the demolition of our corner retail shops? –Can we ever build enough housing? –Can we stop the auto dealerships from taking up all the parking? Ask all your questions, get all our answers: Santa Monica Mid City Neighbors Board Meeting Tuesday, February 20, 2018 7 p.m. Colorado Center Community Room GUEST SPEAKERS Lane Dilg, City Attorney, City of Santa Monica Learn more about Lane Dilg Mary Marlow Chair, Santa Monica Transparency Project, co-author "Term Limits" initiative Term Limits, SM Outlook SMMCN Board of Directors Stacy Dalgleish, President Andrew Hoyer, Vice President and Government Affairs Officer Ellen Hannan, Secretary Nick Boles, Treasurer Catherine Eldridge, Pico Neighborhood Liaison Diane Citron, Member-at-large William Hamilton, Member-at-large Ken Blum, Member-at-large Committees Communications: Andrew Hoyer, William Hamilton Hospitality: Diane Citron (Chair) Nick Boles Beautify Broadway: Stacy Dalgleish (chair) Friends of 11th Street: Susan Suntree (co-chair), Diane Miller (co-chair) Youth Committee: Maryellen Osip, Grace Hunzick, Mari Ostendorf Speaker Coordinator: Liz Bell Webmaster: John C.
