MISSISSIPPI RIVERFRONT ONLINE FORUM MARCH 13-31 The Mississippi River is the "lifeblood" of the Twin Cities. But it's come under increasing pressure from many directions in the past few decades. What will become of the river in 20 or 30 years? What about 100 years?
The Metropolitan Council is hosting an "online-only" discussion from March 13-31 in connection with the Mississippi Riverfront Initiative. The project is bringing together all the riverfront communities between St. Paul and Hastings, and dozens of interested organizations, nonprofits and individuals to discuss the river corridor, riverfront development, transportation and environmental issues, river access, historical and cultural preservation, and related concerns. You can join the discussion, too. Just go to the Metropolitan Council homepage, http://www.metrocouncil.org and click the icon for "Online Forum." For background, you can read more about the Riverfront Initiative at: http://www.metrocouncil.org/planning/river/intro.htm Please tell us what you think, and help spread the word.
