DESCRIPTION:--- Please Volunteer a Couple of Hours on Thursday morning (and/or 
 mid-day)!  It's now the final day! ----\n\nTwo Albany groups, Keep Albany 
 Local and the Albany Farm Alliance, are working to guarantee the 
 preservation of agricultural land at the Albany Gill Tract and halt the 
 development of a super sized Whole Foods store and senior medical care 
 facility with no affordable senior housing. They are working to put a 
 referendum on the ballot in Albany and put the vote of a development 
 agreement between the City of Albany and UC Berkeley to the people. The 
 present agreement approved by the Albany City Council has no guarantee in 
 it of setting aside land at the Gill Tract for agricultural use. One 
 strategy for guaranteeing the preservation of a portion of this 
 agricultural land for supporting local food production through urban 
 farming is putting a halt to this agreement and allowing the process 
 determining the Gill Tract land use to be transparent and democratic.\n\nWe 
 are asking Albany voters to sign this petition for a referendum and for 
 people (regardless of where you live) to come and help collect signatures 
 over the next 1/2 day. We really need to collect at least a hundred more 
 signatures (and more would of course be better!).\n\nTO HELP COLLECT 
 SIGNATURES (and/or sign the petition), please go to: Whole Health 
 Apothecary at 1227 Solano (at Talbot) anytime between 9:00 am and 1:30 pm 
 on Thursday, 8/16. Our deadline to turn in the petitions is later on 
 Thursday afternoon, so please help out, if you possibly can!  Thank 
 you!\n\n\nFor more
