  • Quarterly Meeting for Q1 2023

    Hello, Neighbors.

    Meet Mayor Mahan and your new District 10 Councilmember, Arjun Batra.

    LOS PASEOS NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION
    Quarterly Meeting March 16, 2023, 7:00 – 9:00 pm

    We have an exciting lineup for our next quarterly meeting.

    * Our new Mayor, Matt Mahan, will be attending to discuss his upcoming budget priorities. This is a great opportunity to meet the Mayor and give input on what you think is important to include in the budget.

    * Also, we are hoping to have our new District 10 Councilmember, Arjun Batra, attend to meet our residents and provide an update on D10 happenings. This is a great opportunity to meet our new Council representative and provide input directly to the Council office on what is important to you. If Councilmember is not available, his Chief of Staff will attend.

    * We will be having a Crime update by our SJPD Southern Division, District Yellow representative.

    * An update on our neighborhood CERT program (Community Emergency Response Team & SJNCERT), and Vision Zero (efforts to reduce pedestrian traffic deaths). Los Paseos has a group of neighbors preparing for emergencies using radio communications. Learn about this, and how you can join in. This effort is being spread throughout San Jose. LPNA is active in Vision Zero.

    We are inviting nearby District 10 neighborhoods to provide the opportunity to meet the Mayor and our new Councilmember.

    Hi All,

     

    Hope everyone is doing well!

     

    We are excited to announce our next upcoming City of San Jose Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Basic Training!  As you know, the Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) is a 20-hour all hazard training offered by the Office of Emergency (OEM) Department. The training is designed for residents to protect themselves, their family, their neighbors, and their neighborhood in an emergency situation.  During the training residents will learn: Disaster Preparedness, Fire Safety, Disaster Medical Operations and Triage, Light Search and Rescue, Team Organization, Disaster Psychology, Terrorism & the Incident Command.  Due to the pandemic, the CERT basic training is now being offered as a combination of online training and a one-day hands-on skills training. The online ZOOM training will be a bi-weekly class estimated to take 12-hours from July 5th – July 30th.

     

    If you wouldn’t mind, please help us by sharing this link with your friends, family, and neighbors to help us continue to build a more resilient and empowered City of San Jose:
