Resilient Bernal Cut Forming

August 31, 2020 by Sophie Constantinou

The newsletter looks a whole lot better here

LAUNCHING RESILIENT BERNAL CUT
Welcome to the new subscribers! This newsletter serves to connect neighbors of the Bernal Cut on both the Bernal and Glen Park sides of San Jose Ave.  Coming together to improve the conditions around our homes, streets and open spaces.
Great news! We have been awarded seed funds to start RESILIENT BERNAL CUT.

The Resilience Movement connects neighbors, reinforces social networks and bolsters resources so that neighborhoods like ours can be ready for the next emergency.  Let’s get prepared!

Erika Ehmsen (a NERT trained neighbor) and I have continued our conversations with Daniel Homsey from the Neighborhood Empowerment Network.   He recommended our group to Resilient Noe Valley, which voted to share some funding from Supervisor Mandelman’s office with us and is going to guide us through the steps toward investing in our future.  Big thanks!
Join us this Tuesday, September 1st at 7pm to learn how to get involved.

“The good neighbor looks beyond the external accidents and discerns those inner qualities that make all men human and, therefore, brothers.” — Martin Luther King Jr.

WHAT DOES EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS MEAN?
Building an emergency strategy for your neighborhood: The Neighborhood Empowerment Network’s Block Champion Program provides residents with the capacity and the resources to organize a team of neighbors who can activate and work quickly in an organized manner to provide their vulnerable peers with a “service bridge” that will protect their health and well-being until normal government service levels are restored.
And the gates under the west end of the Richland Bridge have been installed!
Big Thanks DPW!

In March 2024 the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission removed 11 trees from four acres on the north side of O’Shaughnessy, just beyond where the last block of Bosworth makes a right turn. The eucalyptus trees were planted more than 100 years ago and were at risk of falling. Furthermore, access is needed for firefighters in case of wildfire in the area of Glen Canyon Park.
SFPUC was replacing the trees on December 9 with California native plants, which will attract birds, insects, and pollinators. “The goal is to extend the riparian corridor around Islais Creek in the canyon using native plants to create a fire break that also nurtures local fauna,” wrote Heather World in The Glen Park News when the plan was first announced.
Glen Park neighbors were invited to join in on Tuesday, December 9, 9:15am–12:30pm, for a volunteer workday.
