Hi Neighbor, http://www.tc.umn.edu/~hause011/NF/ (No Connect info) > We have a letter from Ted Mondale in response to the discovery by Vince Wharton that Ayd Mill Road is designated by "mistake" as a 'principle arterial' (Highway 280 - I94 type road). Summary: Chairman Mondale says the Metropolitan Council will change the current designation from 'principal arterial' but it is still a future freeway. http://www.tc.umn.edu/~hause011/NF/TedMondale-Jul-21-2000.txt has the full text of the letter. Changing this classification will help stop funding for changing Ayd Mill Road into a freeway. Write your city council member yet again and tell them to change the designation of Ayd Mill Road. > Big Primary Election turnout in St. Paul for candidates that support our positions, such as Mccollum for Congress will be noticed by the city officials. http://www.mccollumforcongress.org/ has information to help her campaign. There is a McCollum volunteer meeting this saturday, Aug. 26 from 10 am to 11 am to plan for the last two weeks of the campaign. It will be at the campaign headquarters, 1821 University, in the Griggs-Midway building.
