Hi, Many of you may have heard about my efforts to acquire the old jail down in south Provo for use as a GIGANTIC makerspace. On June 16th, the Provo city council will be meeting to hear public comment about tearing it down. It's 65,000 square feet in size, and would be a shame to destroy for development.
Please, if you are available on Tuesday evening, come to the Provo city council room (351 W Center St, Provo) at 5:30PM. The council may not truly understand what a makerspace is, and how great this could be for the city, or understand that people are even interested in this sort of thing. A show of support could make the difference. Thank You, -John Fenley ProVolt P.S. A copy of our proposal for the jail can be found at http://www.provolt.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/SecurityCenterProposal.pdf /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
