MEETING TO BE HELD ON NEWBURY STREET

On November 18th at 5 PM, the City of Ripon will host a neighborhood meeting at the Council chambers to discuss the Newbury Street project. As mayor, I have received a number of complaints and concerns about the project, and have asked staff to host this meeting so that we can air all of these issues. I have met with our City Engineer as recently as last Friday morning to review the complaints and concerns, so that he had some idea of the issues. The project is part of a two-year effort to reconstruct Newbury Street, and I would like to avoid the same issues in 2009, so I would encourage ALL residents on Newbury north of Griswold to attend the meeting next Tuesday night. Then, stick around for the Cornerstorne Project informational meeting at 630 PM.
