Hello all,

We will be hosting a discussion group again this Monday, 3/20 5:30-7PM, to discuss topics such as:

*Safer, better designed streets for all residents *Better transit, land use and zoning policies *Action opportunities to improve the quality of life for residents *...and more!

If these things strike you as interesting or you're into Urbanism already, please meet us at Nu Kitchen in the back from 5:30-7PM this Monday, 3/20, or the following two Mondays when we will also be there!

Are there any city representatives who attend?

Not yet, we're just starting out as a resident organization. We should have a local journalist coming to this one though!

You should still try inviting some. They are also residents, and if something doable comes up it might help to have someone listening that could bubble up the idea.

Nu Kitchen is in District 5. That city councilor is Etel Haxhiaj. It might be helpful to invite them or one of the At Large councilors.

That's a good idea, thanks for suggesting it. I'll bring it up at the meeting and see about inviting them for next time.

All the things you plan on discussing are things that require help from the city to actually get done. What’s the point if you hadn’t even thought of inviting someone who can actually help make these changes?

To get some people together so we can approach the city as a group with a clear message.

Oh yeah, low income people notoriously hate affordable housing, safe sidewalks, and reliable mass transit.
