1. TimG addresses City Council Public Works Committee

    Friday morning, I had the pleasure of addressing City Council’s Public Works Committee, on which both our councilmembers, Susan Guidry and Stacy Head, serve.  The two meeting segments comprised a 2-hour discussion about FEMA Road Repairs and DPW Streetlight Maintenance.  My esteemed colleague from Broadmoor, LaToya Cantrell, also spoke.

    News coverage and council video has been posted online, which I hope you will find interesting:

  6. Robert Mendoza's Legacy Lives On

    I plan to present this photo album (complete with snarky text comments) tomorrow – Friday, January 27, 2012 at 10:00 AM – before City Council, during the “Road Repairs” public hearing with Department of Public Works.  You are encouraged to attend or watch video of the meeting.  Wouldn’t it be wonderful if State Street Drive got repaved (for real)?
