Via Judith Edwards, here’s the agenda for Thursday’s North Beacon Hill Council meeting at the Beacon Hill Library:

7:00 – Welcomes, agenda, introductions
7:05 – Lewis Park request for Council to act as fiscal sponsors for two grant applications — vote required
7:15 – Focus for 2010 — A number of issues came forward in our December meeting. We will need to form committees for each, so come prepared to volunteer your time and energy. Most committees meet once per month, and your total time expenditure should not be more than 4-6 hours monthly, perhaps less.
