Tuesday January 27th, CARR hosted a organizational meeting at the Monroe County Public Library.
At that meeting COUNT US! presented an information packet that included information about the Groups fighting New Terrain I-69 including Website and contact information. We provided inspirational writings from state newspapers and a list of newspapers that provide editorial support to our side.
Thomas Tokarski (CARR) presented the hurdles that the proposed I-69 - 3C will have to clear before any construction could start. These hurdles are areas of opportunity and focus for us.
We defined
some
of those areas and provided sign up sheets for groups that will form to
focus on the areas likely to derail the O'Bannon I-69 selection.
Those groups
include the members thus far & the contact person. Group
members
names do not need to be listed here. They are up now, so you can
see if your desire to help has been noted. If you would
like
to sign up to help with any of these groups, please e-mail the
Group
leader or e-mail COUNT US!
. Please include your address, phone number and e-mail address.
