---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Mon, 14 Dec 2015 23:52:15 -0800 From: Shifra de Benedictis-Kessner <shifra(a)temescaldistrict.org> To: Jake(a)spaz.org Subject: Meeting re how the BID can best support Omni Commons Hi Jake! I am the new Executive Director for the Temescal BID, and I'd like to set up a meeting with you and/or any other decision makers at Omni Commons to get to know your organization, and learn how I can best support you. I've shared some of your events on Facebook, and taken a short tour of your space (as well as attending the Bicycle Music Festival after-party in your space!). But I'd like to know best how to talk about all your amazing organizations, as well as your over-arching mission. I offer marketing and promotions support to all the organizations and business in the district, as well as coordinating the cleaning, and graffiti removal in all the different zones. I am eager to hear your issues, challenges, and successes. I'm also interested in finding out if Omni Commons rents out space for events on a regular basis, and if I could possibly publicize. People frequently approach me for meeting/event space available in the district. And on a different note, the storage unit that the Temescal BID's clean team uses will be demolished in less than 4 weeks to make way for the development at 51st and Telegraph. The BID is urgently looking to find the team a new storage unit in the district, and we are willing to rent one. We are definitely interested in both temporary and permanent solutions given the urgent need. The team needs a space on the ground floor, ~200-250 square feet. The team needs access 5 days a week (M-F) starting at 8am and ending at 2:30pm. Do you happen to have any extra space available? Please let me know when you would be available to meet? Omni Commons is an important stakeholder in the Temescal BID. Best, Shifra -- Shifra de Benedictis-Kessner Executive Director Temescal Telegraph BID 4430 Telegraph Ave #49 Oakland, CA 94609 510 860-7327 shifra(a)temescaldistrict.org www.temescaldistrict.org https://www.facebook.com/temescaldist
