Woo-hoo, a planning party
What are you doing after work tomorrow? Critical Mass? The Alterna-Mass that all the cool bikers are talking about? Maybe a happy hour somewhere, or heading home to get dolled up for the Bohemian Carnival?
Hey, how about the Market-Octavia Plan Party?
-- cue the crickets --
OK, OK, maybe a party to mark the successful end of the years-long process to create and win political approval for a new Market & Octavia Neighborhood Plan is something that only a policy wonk can get excited about. But it is a very San Francisco type of plan, creating strict limits on new parking, good affordable housing incentives, and design standards promoting walkability. As plan participant and party promoter Jason Henderson said, "This is the plan that sets the precedent for a more sustainable, car-lite future for San Francisco."
Not doing it for you? Try this quote from the party invite: "Munchies and partial hosted bar." Better? It's also at the Rickshaw Stop, the coolest bar in Hayes Valley, from 5:30-9:30. And it will feature speeches by Sup. Ross Mirkarimi, Planning Commission President Christina Olague and lots of others who helped bring this baby home.
So come on down...if you're into that sort of thing.

I lived on Octavia when I was in Frisco. Glad to see it is still a vital part of the city.
