Presentation on Newly Approved Redistricting Standards Petitions
Finally, the Florida Supreme Court has approved the two Constitutional Amendment Petitions filed by Fair Districts Florida, so the signature gathering must begin full force. Learn what the plans are and what we can do to help.
March Meeting Location & Directions:
We will be meeting at the Orange County Democratic Party Headquarters, 47 E. Robinson St., Suite 201, Orlando, FL 32801. The office is located in the two-story, reddish-brick colored building on Robinson St. across from St. James Diocese and the downtown Post Office. It is the same building as the FedEx/Kinko's on the corner of Robinson & Magnolia. The office is on the second floor (there is a small elevator).
Parking and access (through double glass door in center of ground floor) is at the rear of the building. Turn north on Magnolia as though you were driving straight into the County Courthouse. Magnolia deadends and loops around going back south. Turn right into the parking lot behind the building just before you get back to Robinson. Parking is free at night. Look for the double glass doors. When you enter go down the hall, turn right, then left and use either the stairs or the elevator.
Looking for new Meeting Locations:
We were back at the Orlando Public Library for the February meeting. Now parking is a more serious problem than ever as the fees have gone up. Stardust is not available to us on our meeting night and the parking is tight. We've also checked out Dandelion Communitea, but there are several problems such as parking (even worse than Stardust), tiny rooms, and no reservation of a room, as they have had some bad experiences.
We would very much like to meet at an establishment which serves reasonably priced food, beer and wine. However, we need a room to ourselves for speakers and films, an establishment which has progressive management/ownership, and ample surface parking. Experience has taught us that we do best on the north side of downtown. It is also helpful for our attendance to have easy access to I-4. If you have any suggestions, please email the organizer and we'll check it out.
“ I enjoyed the discussion. Learned more about the redistricting effort and picked up a few more petitions. Nancy brought in a notebook pc and projector. Using a web application, she found a small neighborhood with plenty of Democratic residents where I can collect signatures. Thanks to Nancy for preparing an agenda, and for lugging all of that hardware over to DHq for our meetup! It worked well. ”
“ I realized that we are the front line in the fight for a better world. ”
