SAN DIEGO -- The Hillcrest Pride Flag project continues to gain momentum in the community, as the Hillcrest Town Council (HTC) voted on a motion to endorse the project at its meeting Tuesday night.

Community members who are working on developing the project envision a 65-foot pole in the median in the center of Normal Street at University Avenue. The pole will fly a large rainbow flag year-round. The Hillcrest Business Association (HBA) and San Diego LGBT Pride have agreed to ensure that the flag is insured and maintained regularly.
