SIMITIAN TO HOLD SIDEWALK OFFICE HOURS IN CUPERTINO, CAMPBELL, AND WILLOW GLEN

PALO ALTO – State Senator Joe Simitian (D-Palo Alto) announced today that he will hold three “sidewalk office hours” on May 29-31 in Cupertino, Campbell, and San Jose’s Willow Glen neighborhood.  Simitian invites community members to visit and voice their questions and concerns about state legislative issues. 

“I enjoy meeting people face-to-face,” said Simitian. “These events give both the public and me a chance to interact in an informal, friendly atmosphere. It’s tremendously helpful to hear first-hand what folks have on their minds.”

Simitian holds his sidewalk office hours at local farmers’ markets. All questions are welcome, and no appointments are required.

“The farmers’ markets are a wonderful venue for sidewalk office hours,” Simitian said.  “The setting is relaxed, it’s easy to find, and a lot of folks stop by to talk on the spur of the moment. In these challenging times, it’s more important than ever for elected officials to stay in touch.”

Simitian will host his sidewalk office hours at the following times and locations:

Friday, May 29th, 10:30 AM - noon
Cupertino Square Farmers’ Market
Vallco Parkway and N. Wolfe Road, Cupertino, CA

Saturday, May 30th, 10:30 AM - noon
Willow Glen Farmers’ Market
Behind the Garden Theatre at 1165 Lincoln Ave., San Jose, CA

Sunday, May 31st, 10:00 - 11:30 AM
