It's too bad they couldn't run the rails right down Hwy 61 in the median without blocking the beauty of the bluffs. There aren't as many intersections to deal with that way (compared to going through town), and assuming there's a highway planned to cut across near the wetlands on the east/south side of town to access the new office development center, maybe that could be modified to make it easier for rail traffic. I think someone else raised this earlier. Does anyone know if this is not an option? While I would prefer the solution that Jim Galewski described in his editorial, it seems like this would be a better option than running it through the center of town. You know, I think about how many more people take part in these online discussions, if only as lurkers, than show up for public meetings. Just another note to say that I think online democracy is working. Will it effect change in local government decisions? May be. -Clay Templeton --------------- This message was posted to Winona Online Democracy Please visit http://onlinedemocracy.winona.org to subscribe or unsubscribe All messages sent to the list must be signed with your actual name.
