CHCDC Legacy Council and Presidents Club Members:    This is an extremely
important meeting to gather support for completion of the mitigations you
all fought for in the last century.    We had a very positive strategy
session on July 14 with a number of community and organization
representatives on Mid City Mobility matters. This is the first and foremost
issue we need to address.    -  Jay Powell
