As the PMC, I think we should probably stay out of this sort of thing. It's probably best if you reach out to the hosts directly and see if they are ok with it. Our goal with the blanket approval was to ensure no event would be so large that this would really be an issue.
Personally, I would probably try to space them out a bit. When I was in my 20's I could handle multiple meetups a week, now I am tired and have children and once a month is more than enough for me :) I also don't live in the bay area anymore so YMMV.
