Posted on by

On Saturday, June 15 you can meet two of San Francisco’s mayoral candidates.  DHIC is hosting Mark Farrell (below left) and Daniel Lurie (below right) at our Spring Gathering which starts at 11am on Saturday, June 15.  (Note the date change from June 8 owing to candidate schedules.)  

Mark Farrell will speak between 11:15 am and 11:45am.  Then Daniel Lurie will speak between 12 noon and 12:30pm.  DHIC has suggested to the candidates that they talk for ten minutes and then take Q & A for 20 minutes.  Join us to learn more about their ideas for our neighborhoods and San Francisco!    

DHIC is inviting the remaining three major candidates (Breed, Peskin, and Safai) to speak at our Fall Fest on Saturday, September 28 between 11am and 1pm, at the top of Sanchez stairs between 19th and Cumberland Streets.

DHIC Fallfest 2023 – a great neighborhood block party!

Posted on by

On the bright and sunny Saturday, October 14, over 80 neighbors turned out  from throughout Dolores Heights.  They looked at great photos of Dolores Heights … from the earthquake era to today.  They talked with leaders of DHIC’s key priorities – Safety, Cleaning & greening our Green Spaces, and Planning and Land Use – and learned about how they can help support them.  Supervisor Rafael Mandelman recapped his key priorities and issues in the City.  And Dave Burke described his role as D8 Public Safety Liaison in the SFPD.  To top it off, we held the Great Raffle – with over ten prizes including gift cards to top restaurants in the Castro/SF.  

The photos give a glimpse of what went on.  We hope you were there and left with a better understanding of DHIC’s role in ensuring that Dolores Heights is great place to live and that our interests are represented at City Hall and with our elected supervisor and state legislators!  If you have questions or want to help, we want to hear from you!  Email us at info@doloresheights.org

With a new focus and a new date, join us for DHIC’s “Safer Together” Gathering on Saturday, June 3 at 11 am. Please save this date!

This year, our focus is on Safety: what we can do to help ourselves and our neighbors feel safer.  We’ll introduce our block groups and hold breakouts by group – so that you can meet your neighbors, talk with each other about your key safety concerns, and share tips on how to make our homes and blocks safer. We will also have safety handouts. 

For a starter kit, here’s nine pages of safety tips.  Skim them to see how many of these you already know.
