What is really going to happen at the Town Hall Meeting, Tuesday?

Friends,

      Every time there is an event, it is important to be there.  The question in the title is one that is often asked.  Town Hall, Tuesday, 22 July:

      (1)  At 6:30, you will be welcomed and Jim Reed will begin explaining the Engineering plans from the Engineer.  The Town Hall will begin promptly.
      (2)  No questions will be asked during the presentation.  It is too easy to get off track with questions.  Very important that all have the opportunity to listen and process.  You are strongly encouraged to bring pencil and paper to make notes and record possible questions.
      (3)  At the end of the Jim's presentation, questions will be taken.  The process: raise your hand to be recognized.
      (4)  Respectfully request:
                    (a)  Remain on the subject of Sewer/Water Treatment
                    (b)  Respect other people's questions/comments
                    (c)  Your opinion is important, but please state it calmly and to the point
                    (d)  Listen carefully, understand the facts; uninformed gossip is crippling

     For all of us, and especially the Aldermen, this is a critical Town Hall.  Your discussion will inform and influence their decision.  If you are for it, come.  If you are against it, come.  If you are not sure, come.  We want to hear all sides and weigh your comments.

     The Aldermen and the Mayor may receive questions, but it is more important they have the opportunity to listen to the total audience.  Questions will primarily be answered by our City Administrator who has been in informative discussion with the engineers.

    The Town Hall will end at or before 8 P.M.

    This is Salado at its best.  Citizens -- informed, intellectually and street smart, neighbors and friends that love their village --  coming together to decide the present and future of their village.

    It is realized that many of you are coming from a long day at work and their are other important things to do.  However, this Town Hall is very important -- no, it is essential.

                                   Most Respectfully,   Skip
