SAVE SAN JOSE SKATE -- community meeting organized by the City's Planning Dept.

[Frida]

Hi!

I say yes. It shows we bring attraction and having everyones support will be heard.

[Brigid Fitch]

Has anyone floated the idea of urging the city to buy the property and run it like a pool or a park?  Is there a precedent for this?

Even if the zone use is denied, the property is still for sale.  From what I saw last night, I don't think the Neighborhood Association would rally as quickly if some other retail establishment were going in.  I think perhaps we should try to work with them to get the city involved while emotions are still running high to preserve the rink...

Even if you do not live in SJ, you can still submit a letter to Liz at lizapalooza@gmail.com, and she can put it in the file submitted to the city planner.

I just think SJS is being run wrong.  It could be making some huge $$.. yes, a little money needs to go into it ..fix it up a bit..
But I have tons and tons of ideas on how this place could make a mint and remain a roller rink!!!
They just need to hire me as manager   (sorry Mike, or current owners )

[Kozmo Trouble]

Pia, only in OUR DREAMS you could be manager of SJ Skate...

...Just IMAGINE it.....


....AWESOME!!!
