List,
It is statements and mindsets like the one brought forth from Mr. Wilson
that the city counts on. Why is it so impossible for people to believe the
ordinary citizen? Has it not been proven time and time again, with examples
mind you, that we citizens get messed over on a constant basis?
I look at the posts of a lot of the list members, and I don't believe
everything I read. However, a lot of our members bring sound evidence and
advice into our midst, and one cannot help but believe it. I guess some
folks believe that if it has not happened directly to them it cannot
possibly be true.
Must we be shot in the head with a bullet to know it's deadly effects?

There were even attempts by Hennepin County funded Family &
Children's Services staff to have meetings to destabilize the neighborhood
organization because residents opposed the CVI project. Fortunately their
efforts at a secret meeting failed and all the people who showed up, who
were not someone's staff, were residents who overwhelmingly opposed both
the
CVI project and any attempt to destabilize the Neighborhood Organization.

Lighten up a little Jim. The City may bumble around with development
projects (and sometimes lose the public interest) but spending time to
undermind the neighborhood group? If they wanted to do that they would
get pack of bureaucrates and lawyers and gang-audit you.
