This Just In: City of Philadelphia Hosting Important Public Meeting on AVI at Shiloh Baptist, March 13 6-9 PM

 

 

This Just In: City of Philadelphia Hosting Important Public Meeting on AVI at Shiloh Baptist, March 13 6-9 PM   Dear neighbors: By now, all neighbors should have received new property assessments from the City.  Those assessments have prompted many many questions and concerns.  In response, on Wednesday the Mayor announced a new round of public "technical assistance" meetings around the City. Late yesterday SOSNA received confirmation that one such meeting will take place next Wednesday, March 13 from 6-9 PM at the Shiloh Baptist Church, 2040 Christian Street. Details below. Please note that this is different from the meeting SOSNA hosted in January.  Instead of a panel discussion, the meeting on March 13 will be an opportunity for you to meet one-on-one with City officials to discuss your specific questions and concerns about your assessment and taxes.  Please spread the word to friends and neighbors. Also, we're off to a great start in our goal to raise $2,500 for the Catharine Park Project by March 31st so that we can trigger the matching donation from David G. Orphanides and Associates, P.C. Please donate today to support the Park! Remember an $150 donation gets you an engraved brick! Thanks to all who have contributed and supported this park. Lastly, SOSNA is currently out of blue recycling bins - hopefully the City will replenish our stock next week. Apologies!
