From the Manhattan Beach Community Group:

Everyone is invited to attend the June meeting on the 15th, Wednesday night at 8 PM at PS 195. We will be discussing the possible opening of a Bistro with Booze at 184 Oxford Street. That means people drinking and driving in our community. Excessive noise and a slew of problems for our friends on Oxford and Norfolk Streets. Not to forget the proximity to a High School, playground and College.

We will also be discussing Zoning and the scheme to up-size our neighborhood. The membership will also be updated on the Directors only meeting of June 14. Lastly, the nominating committee be voted on.

Hope to see you.
