Elected Officials & A Call to Action
We are making waves. You may have read in the Post Gazette (article here) about the 4 Mile Run Stormwater Project, its rocky history, and its current status. I am focusing hard on the positive; the project and its funding are on the radar of our city.
Although the article was unhelpful, unkind to The Run community, and unabashedly political, I am going to work under the assumption that "Bad news is good news, good news is no news, and no news is bad news," or whatever the saying may be. Good news continues, as the article gave our Councilmember (article here) a chance to respond and give more details.
BUT, WE NEED TO KEEP FISHING.
In this email, I have proposed a method to our madness with specific nets to direct our joint demands into:
