* Alderman Hight has been asked to address the subject of Ward 4 Improvement Funds yearly allocated to both he and Alderman Witcher; answering questions such as the amount made available, how it is used, what was its actual use in 2007, and what happened with the remaining unused 2007 amounts? Also, both Aldermen will be given the opportunity to address the subject of the 2008 NLR Budget, its overall impact upon our taxes and how those monies will be used to support the budget. Of course your questions will be taken by our Aldermen regarding current city government and planning department agendas that are now directly impacting our neighborhood along with those that may be in our near future.
** Bob Dahms will offer an "Everything you ever wanted to know about a "blog" but was afraid to ask" talk to help us understand what exactly a blog is, what it's operating purpose & manners should be, and most importantly how we can read as well as post to and comment on our NLAN Blog Site. We'll be in class - bring a pencil and notepad!

Hope to see everyone Monday evening. Take care driving in!
