Sabine mentioned that Goldfish, a private pool operator, has opened recently in the neighborhood, and could be a possible temporary solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tank site design still has some flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Haven\u2019t been in touch with DEP about anything in particular. Demolition should start in the next couple months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Council Member Levin is still planning to host a February\/March informational meeting to provide the community with an overview of the CSO tank plan, construction process, 234 Butler preservation. Contingent on acceptance of the design by EPA. Haven\u2019t chosen a firm date yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ULURP agreement includes creation of a construction watchdog group, which needs to be in place by the time that demolition starts. Benjamin and Eric will check with CB6 about the task force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sabine is willing to compile a video montage of CAG and cleanup history and take the lead on pulling visuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Natalie suggested a number of possible 10th Anniversary events via email:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Townhall-esque Meeting<\/li><li>Open House<ul><li>Visual timeline<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>Community voices \u2013 where are they now?<ul><li>Re-interview community members 10 years later:<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=mKV0VDTFYR4\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=mKV0VDTFYR4<\/a>;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Rc3F_bElDq0\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Rc3F_bElDq0<\/a>)<\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Social Media<ul><li>In-the-moment videos (a 60-second interview)<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>Tweets<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Press event at the Canal <ul><li>Potential locations include the Lowes parking lot where we announced the 2013 ROD; street end at the head of the canal overlooking the cutoff wall&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Local school involvement<ul><li>Youth storytelling<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>Art contest<\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GCC has school partnerships and relationships with local teachers<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What are the goals?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2022 <b>Commemorate anniversary<br>\u2022 Bring awareness to on-the-ground work that will be happening<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The biggest visual milestone will be the start of the cleanup work. Cutoff wall target completion date is August 2020, so when will actual dredging start?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pumping Station site would be a good place to do a press event, or just off Butler Street (the parking lot between Butler and the top of the canal).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We need an update on when dredging will actually begin from EPA. We\u2019ll let EPA know that the 10th\u00a0anniversary of the designation on March 2nd\u00a0is a bit early for the CAG to be able to pull things together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Could Congresswoman Velazquez&#8217;s office help with the designation anniversary? Christine will reach out to Dan Wiley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CAG anniversary (October) could be a public meeting. Maybe a community update at a larger location. We have time to figure that out. Anniversary could be a look back at the past 10 years. More of a social event. Could also be an opportunity to re-think the town hall format. Who do we want to attract to that?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next Steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Christine to contact Dan Wiley regarding March 2 anniversary press release\/event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Follow up with Natalie with meeting summary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jennifer will ask her friend at the Times about helping with the timeline.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Gowanus Canal Community Advisory Group\u2019s Outreach Committee met on Thursday, January 16, 2020, at the offices of the Fifth Avenue Committee, at 621 Degraw Street.
