A couple points about David Brauer's and Eva Young's posts. I don't think Dave Piehl violated list rules with the cartoon. I'm also glad Eva makes reference to Dave Piehl's post last week about allegations over the Lake Street Project. Lake Street is currently four lanes and repaving the street with four lanes is NOT increasing capacity. (I'll leave individual subscribers to decide if Mr. Piehl was lying by claiming that a 4 lane Lake Street increases capacity)
Eva also cites Dave's accounting of the Lake Street meeting held by Schiff, Lilligren, and Clark. I would like to hear more about this meeting. Why wasn't this forum posted to Mpls Issues? My wife Corinne Ertz is a member of the Lake Street PAC, I don't remember her getting a notice of this meeting. If these folks are going to criticize Smith Parker's process they better bend over backwards to get the word out on their own events. Holding targeted forums isn't exactly fair either. There is a web site for the Lake Street project that has a public input and response forum, I was on it last week and counted 19. I suggest folks go to it and take a look. As far as property takings, could Eva share with the list what property is proposed to be taken along the I35 corridor? Eva's post was the first I've heard of property being taken in the trench on 35. (excluding the Crosstown proposal) Scott Persons Lyndale Neighborhood REMINDERS: 1.
