[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 08, 2006 4:07 PM To: Allen Ueckert; Dale Harger - Avondale Subject: September 21 Luncheon Meeting About Graffiti Allen and Dale: I very much hope that you will be able to attend MDBA's follow-up meeting to the January one which had standing room only. Our speakers' panel will include the director of the East End Community Improvement District (speaking about how they've managed to gain control of their graffiti problem), Council Member Sue Lovell (speaking about the new graffiti ordinance as proposed) and Asst. Chief Brian Lumpkin, who is running the Graffiti Abatement effort for Neighborhood Protection. As we've all observed, this problem is not going away, and we must continue to face up to it, trying to facilitate removal by owners in view of the limited funds for the City's efforts. MDBA is seeking to establish active coordination between resident and business property owners toward that end. The cost of the luncheon is $20 (tax and tip included), and we will, as before, attempt to start the meeting as promptly as possible at 11:30 a.m. It is being held at LaStrada on Westheimer. Please invite any other civic leadership whom you feel will be interested. Reservations may be made on MDBA's website at museumdistrictalliance.com or by contacting me at 713-529-7010.
