Hi Neighbor,
Many items this issue.
The Legislature is in session and transportation money that
affects Ayd Mill Road will be coming up. I have a new set
of County and State officials to contact at the bottom of
the message. Pick a different St Paul Council member to
write to this week.
Phoning and writing has made a difference, the No Connect
Coalition reports that positions are softening and a cheap downtown
I35-I94 west ramp is becoming an alternative to an Ayd Mill Freeway.
Keep up the pressure with phone calls and (e)mail.
February 7, Monday 5:30-8:30PM
Phone Bank to call our thousands of supporters to
notify them of the BIG "I Love My Neighborhood"
Valentines-No Connect Party. Volunteer to call for an hour.

1)Lex-Hamline Community Council office, 1160 Selby Av
2 blocks west of Lexington. (Lawn signs)
