San Diego Rescue Mission Neighborhood Advisory Committee

Committee meets at 4:00 p.m. on 2nd Thursday of each month

San Diego Rescue Mission Neighborhood Advisory Committee Convened

On February 13, 2003, the San Diego Rescue Mission Neighborhood Advisory Committee held its first meeting. The committee was formed as a result of the November 19, 2002 approval of the Conditional Use Permit allowing the San Diego Rescue Mission to relocate and consolidate its services at 120 Elm Street, the old Harborview Hospital.

The purpose of the Neighborhood Advisory Committee is to provide a means for ongoing interaction between the community surrounding the facility and the San Diego Rescue Mission. The Committee will review and evaluate any impacts the Rescue Mission may have on the neighborhood and will work to address any issues that arise.

The Committee is comprised of members representing the following categories:

Resident within ¼ mile
Business within ¼ mile
Religious institution/Religious private school (K-6) within ¼ mile
California Western School of Law (administration)
California Western School of Law (student)
Balboa Park Committee
Centre City Development Corporation
Downtown San Diego Partnership
Little Italy Association
Uptown Planners
San Diego Police Department HOT Team
San Diego Rescue Mission
City of San Diego Development Services Department (ad hoc member)

The Committee will meet on a monthly basis on the second Thursday of every month from 4:00-6:00 pm. The meetings are held at the First Presbyterian Church at 320 Date Street (entrance is on Third Avenue between Date and Elm Streets). All meetings are open to the public.
