PUBLIC NOTICE:
An opinion piece regarding San Jose Measure E, published in the 2/13/20 Evergreen Times, mistakenly included the title of “President, District 8 Community Round Table” for the author, Jeremy Barousse. This was an error – – as he intended the article to be from him only as a member of the Evergreen community.
According to our bylaws, The D8CRT may only take positions on ballot initiatives after a formal vote of our membership. The D8CRT has taken no position on Measure E, as there has been no such vote.
