3:30 p.m. - City and School District Joint Committee

 

Hello! This committee hasn't shown up for a while!

It's an incredibly good idea for a committee: having the School Board and the City Supervisors sit in the same room and work out ways to jointly address their common issues. But mostly it sits dormant, except for when the school assignment system is in the news again, at which point it calls a meeting to "monitor" the situation.

Let's see what's on the agenda this time, shall we?

Oh, look, a "Hearing on the status of the San Francisco Unified School District's student assignment system," and nothing else.

I guess the city and school district have nothing else to talk about.

That's a good sign, right?


And finally ...

... There will be special LAFCo meeting on Friday at 2 p.m..

What are we going to talk about at this meeting, LAFCo?

The same thing we talk about every month, Public Utilities Commission: public power!

All those in favor of replacing LAFCo and the PUC with an animated buddy comedy, raise your hands.

The ayes have it.

It might actually speed up the process.

  • clipping at Brava Theater Sept. 11
    Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
