As announced at the very well-attended April 23 meeting, the next meeting of the UCSF Hospital Replacement CAG* Action Team will be held:

Monday, May 14
6:00 – 9:00 p.m.
UCSF Mission Bay Campus
Genentech Hall, Room N-114
600 16th Street

Please note that this meeting is scheduled to be 3 hours long. (The last meeting was scheduled to end at 8:00, but many neighbors stayed until after 9:00 to discuss their concerns with UCSF Medical Center leadership.) We will have refreshments, but you may want to eat dinner beforehand!

UCSF continues to seek community feedback on the proposed site plan for the new Mission Bay clinical facilities to be built on the site just south of the existing UCSF research campus (bounded by Mariposa, 16th, 3rd, and the new Owens Street ).

The key issues raised at the April meeting include the location of the proposed helipad, the location of the Urgent Care/Emergency Department entrance, site configuration, and transportation/traffic concerns. We will work with neighbors in drafting the agenda for May 14.

The UCSF Mission Bay campus is accessible using the MUNI T-Third light rail line. If you drive, please park at NO COST in the SURFACE LOT (near the UCSF Police Station); this lot can be reached by taking 16th Street to 4th Street . Complimentary parking is not available in the garages. Please bring photo id to show at building security desk.

For more information about the Mission Bay hospital design process, please contact Barbara Bagot-López, Associate Director of UCSF Community Relations, at bblopez@cgr.ucsf.edu or 476-8318.
