Your signature is powerful; now is the time

Friends,

    The letter is ready for your signature.  Worked on by various citizens, presented at the last Town Hall on Construction, and available at the Information Center; it will be sent to Federal, State, and County Officials, 1 December.

    The purpose is to solicit help in ending Construction that has crippled and harmed Salado.  For three years, Salado has endured 3.1 miles of I-35 Construction.  In the last 6 months, there has been improvement by TxDoT and James Construction, however, it is not enough.  We are now in the Christmas season, the major source of income for our businesses.  This income will help then through the winter months until Spring.  Surviving another 6 months is going to be difficult for those who have held on and kept going often without receiving a personal pay check.  It is more than "the cost of business;" it is personal self-sacrifice for the good of the Village.

    Your help is needed.  Please stop by the Information Center and sign the letter.  Nothing carries the weight of your signature.  It will only take a few minutes but it will make a difference.

    Another special request, this Christmas do your Christmas shopping in Salado.  It will help ease the financial loss to our businesses.  There are times when we can depend on no one else but ourselves.  Such a time as this is now.

    Thank you for your support in both of these endeavors.
