Hello Neighbor,

The SFCC Board is holding its monthly meeting this Wednesday November 18th. We invite you to join the Zoom Meeting at 6:30pm by following the link below.

We will hold our official board meeting at 7:00 PM. You are welcome to stay, participate and help us direct our efforts.

Virtual November board meeting:

6:30pm – Click here to join the zoom call  https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83279645412

7:00pm – SFCC Board meeting

After welcoming the new members of the board we will follow our regular agenda.

Hello SFCC,

We are trying to get the Emergency Preparedness committee jumpstarted and we will start by meeting this Wednesday 11/12 at 7:00 pm.

Zoom link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88496368865

The goal of the meeting is to determine where to start on a couple of ideas and get to know where we feel comfortable in participating.

Thought starters for directions to potential needs.

• We need people willing to:
  • Share with people the direction that the Emergency Preparedness is going and seek input on what is missing.
  • Report concerns and possibilities to the committee
• We need to create a directory of people willing to help:
  • Where are these people?
  • Who will make contact to find out who will participate-Block Reps or others?
  • Inventory of skills, tools, etc. available
  • Methods to Contact the volunteers
  • Restrictions
  • Determine the availability method(s) of the directory
• At least one person is needed to keep us on track when we choose a direction and make notes about what we decide to accomplish.  (History tells me that we will need that jog of memory to accomplish our goals or recognize that the goal is invalid.)
• We need to have responsible person(s) to get and maintain our connection to the city resources.
• We need person(s) that will setup and maintain method(s) of communication that will activate the responses needed at the time of an incident.
• We need to keep people focused on Emergency Preparedness
  • By regular thoughts sent out in broadcast format (NextDoor, emails, etc.)
  • Updating our website with interesting new things, ideas, stories, etc.
• …

This may seem overwhelming and it will be a lot.  As in all large processes, we will bite off a piece at a time.  As the “we” gets bigger, the quicker things will be accomplished and the more complete will be our efforts. These are just some thoughts for now.  The meeting will start to flesh out the reality.

You can count on fall bringing two things to our neighborhood: change in the color of the leaves and our annual meeting. On this uncertain time is important to keep our community connection. Like most other events, our annual meeting will be held via Zoom.

We will use our annual event to share information and accomplishments from this past year, meet your neighbors (online), provide your input and participate in our community.

Meeting Agenda:

• Zoom session starts at 6:30 PM, this will allow you time to do a practice poll, fix any technical issues and get everyone comfortable with Zoom.
• Review of SFCC Board 2019-2020
• Treasurer’s report for fiscal year
• Election of new officers
• SFCC Emergency Preparedness update
• City of Bellevue’s Neighborhood Area Planning program
• Discussion of goals and direction of SFCC

DATE: Thursday October 22, 2020

TIME: 7:00 PM

PLACE: Online: Zoom: http://bit.ly/SFCC2020
