Southwestern College Board of Trustees Meeting -- Object to contract with Blackwater
STOP BLACKWATER PROTEST RALLY AT SOUTHWESTERN COLLEGE
Join a protest/rally to Stop Blackwater from using Southwestern College conference rooms and to stop students from using the Blackwater (AKA "Xe") shooting range and warfare training center in Otay Mesa, a facility that was approved without public review under the dark cloud of a federal lawsuit that forced San Diego City to issue their occupancy permit. The event will occur on Wednesday, March 11, 2009 at 6:30pm (just prior to the Board of Trustees meeting at 7pm.) at Southwestern College, 900 Otay Lakes Road, Chula Vista, CA 91910. Attendees are invited to address governing board members at the meeting scheduled for 7pm in Room 214, regarding agenda item 12 "Reconsideration of Memorandum of Understanding with Blackwater Lodge and Training Center, Inc." Ray Lutz, who helped oust Blackwater from Potrero and who submitted a letter to the Governing Board outlining the many objections to the agreement will make comments. (Signs encouraged but not allowed in the meeting room).
