E-G Neighborhood Plan Presentation (Tonight, Jun 12)

E-G Neighborhood Plan Presentation (Tonight, Jun 12)

This is a short day-of reminder that the Emerson-Garfield Neighborhood Planning Group will present its final neighborhood plan tonight (June 12) starting at 6:30 at Knox Presbyterian (806 W Knox).

The plan has been developed over the better part of two years by a group of dedicated volunteer stakeholders with the assistance of AHBL and the City Planning department. It lays the groundwork for the future of Emerson-Garfield — things like pedestrian safety, business viability, beautification, neighborhood vitality, transportation and more.

March_EGNP_Draft_coverWho is this presentation for? Everyone in E-G. The issues and solutions it lays out will positively affect homeowners, renters, businesses, landlords, churches, charities, schools, realtors, developers and anyone else who has or will have a stake in our neighborhood. If that’s you, then make it a point to attend.

2014 Corbin Park Yard Sale (Jun 14)

This year’s Corbin Park Yard Sale is happening this Saturday, June 14, from 8am to 4pm.

Korean Food Sale (Jun 13, Concurrent with the Farmers’ Market)

Korean Food Sale (Jun 13, Concurrent with the Farmers’ Market)

Spokane Hope Christian Reformed Church (스포켄 소망교회), which shares a building with Knox Presbyterian (806 W Knox), will be holding another Korean Food Sale this month. This time, however, they’ve scheduled it on Friday, June 13 — making it concurrent with the Emerson-Garfield Farmers’ Market at the same location. Typically the food sale has been held on the second Saturday.

They’ve also extended the hours of this popular fundraising sale from 11am to 7pm to coincide with the market and better serve both the lunch and dinner crowd.

Korean Food Sale, June 2014

This month’s menu includes bulgogi (Korean BBQ beef), jeyook-bokeum (spicy pork), gimbap (sushi), bibim-bap (an all-in-one meal), kimchi fried rice and potstickers.

They’re also running a bonus deal again. Order four meals and you’ll get a fifth one for free!

Materials for the June 11 EGNC Meeting

Materials for the June 11 EGNC Meeting

The Emerson-Garfield Neighborhood Council meets this Wednesday, June 11 at 7pm in the Corbin Senior Center (827 W Cleveland).

If you’ve been meaning to come to a neighborhood council meeting, make it this one. There’s not a ton on the agenda, so it’ll be short, but what is on the agenda consists of things like concerts, parties, and potlucks, so it’ll certainly be sweet. Anyone with an interest in Emerson-Garfield is welcome to attend.

SPD Ombudsman Tim Burns will be giving his annual report on police complaints (including, we suppose, the shooting at Maple/Grace), and Ben Covino of the Lands Council will be giving some advance warning to summertime fishermen and -women regarding river toxins in fish.

We’ll also be discussing a potentially larger role for Project Hope in the Emerson-Garfield Farmers’ Market, the presentation of the Neighborhood Plan on June 12, the status of the Concert in the Park/Summer Parkways collaboration, and the neighborhood-wide August potluck in Emerson Park. Whether or not the EGNC will take a break from meeting in July will also be determined.
