Both conservative and liberal faith perspectives were represented. During the discussion, Rev. Caldwell explained Alameda's Evangelical congregations felt their views were "not heard" and that both ATAH and the City supported liberal positions. Plans to hold Community Forums (Clergy, AUSD concerns, and Police Profiling) were discussed as a topic for a second meeting. ATAH members expressed the hope to look forward beyond just the curriculum and work together to build a hate-free community.

BOARD/STAFF COMMUNICATIONS, NON-AGENDA Biggs: A.C. Transit is restructuring their service to accommodate a 15% budget cut. Changes to the #63 busline n particular will have an adverse effect of service for APOC and other West End residents. People on the island will have a difficult time accessing the Food Bank, and those on the West End will have easier access to Oakland than to Alameda Towne Centre. Member Soglin suggested a presentation from AC Transit to the Board in July. (Staff will try to arrange) | SocialServiceHumanRelationsBoard/2009-06-25.pdf |
