Invitation to take action!
 
1. We need people to attend the City of Pacific Grove City Council meeting on Wednesday 2/16/2022 at 6:00 pm to speak during public comment that the City Council and Mayor should issue no permit for the Feast of Lanterns for any future dates.  Currently there is an errata that indicates the City of PG will defer the permit for one year so that there is more time to revise the Feast of Lanterns and deal with the public outrage about the racism in the event.  There will be no Feast of Lanterns in 2022 but there could be in 2023 or beyond.  If you can attend, here are the details.
 
Pacific Grove City Council Meeting – February 16, 2022 at 6:00 pm PST
The link is posted on the city’s website a couple of days in advance.  www.cityofpacificgrove.org
 
We will also post an update in the petition with the zoom information for the City Council Meeting as soon as it is posted. 
 
Thank you to everyone who has signed the petition and helped with this cause.
