Many thanks to Trinsic Technologies, Inc.  for sponsoring our website
Text Box: Many Thanks to Molly O’Halloran, Leah Bojo, Lauren Shallcross and John Michael Cortez. Over the past year, these volunteers stepped down from their leadership positions on our Team and we want everyone to know how much their service was appreciated. They all plan to stay involved by continuing to serve on various committees where the action steps to improve the neighborhood get implemented! Why don’t you consider joining a committee, too? ECC Team meeting highlights for May and June 2011 See our Plan: http://www.ci.austin.tx.us/planning/neighborhood/ecesar_chavez.htm See our policies, meeting minutes, committee works, and project links at www.eastcesarchavez.org In May, we endorsed the idea to pursue an historic multi-modal pocket park at 1300 E. 4th St., elected Ken as our new secretary and Pilar Sanchez as our new Sector 1 Rep. In June, we met with The East Austin School Alliance, a group involved in connecting students and schools with neighborhoods and individuals who can strengthen partnerships to keep our schools open. We discussed appealing several outdoor music venue permits and discussed trying to get changes to the Saltillo TOD which is allowing too many bars to congregate along E. 6th Street. And we formed a new fundraising committee to support special events, projects and programs.

We consider everyone who lives or works here a member of our Planning Team.  The Leadership Team represents all stakeholders in our area and they have voting power to represent these stakeholders.  We have divided the neighborhood into geographic sectors so that all parts of the neighborhood have a vote.  We also have voting members who represent businesses, congregations, non-profits and civic groups.  You do not have to live or work in the neighborhood to serve on committees. If you are interested in joining our Committees, contact the Chairs listed above.
