David, please don't mention the street idea.I went into shock when I
learn the
recommendation by Cal Thorpe study of the area; and now my good neighbor

It seems to me ever since there was data indicating that repairing broken
windows led to a decrease in crime, folks have gotten a little too gung-ho in
their zeal for pristine neighborhoods. The tone of Mr. McLaughlin's post
raises my semi-dormant anti-business hackles. He and his cronies may s
There's one of those kiosk bulletin boards outside The Wedge Co-op. Has it
ever been set on fire? Think kiosks are a good idea - I like that one. AY

As a consultant to multiple business associations in Minneapolis, I am
compelled to comment on this thread. Flyers, posters and other bills
adhered to telephone poles are an insidious and ever-present form of blight.
Most business owners I work with are only irritated by this form of
vandalism;

A street, how can you talk of a street after the protest Sweard just had
regarding 26th. Why would anyone in Seward want us to put in a street at
28th just to have a boundary? I think the Midtown Greenway will make a
great boundary, let have no more talk of streets.

True story, what can I say. However, this was a few years ago when I was a
board member. Not sure if any of the board members at that time are still
there. So, maybe the current board would react differently --- Dave

as part of NRP. Anyone know how well th
Mr. Stack, please tell me your posting is a joke. I have heard
of this sort of fire hazard in Upper Harlem -- and have actually

Part of the problem we seem to have is that we just don't have enough places

Do you believe that police department leaders should have a role in setting

I have seen these community bulletin boards in other cities also. I thought
they were a good idea, and proposed the idea once to the board of our
neighborhood association. The idea was soundly rebuked and defeated because
it was thought of as a fire hazard. It was stated that vandals would be

This summer during trips to Madison and Boulder, I noticed kiosks in public
areas full of flyers for musical, theatrical and political events. I
thought this was a good thing. It gave me the impression that these city

The city charter provides that for a city referendum issue, the
referendum is counted based on the number of people who vote on the
issue. Blanks do not count. By contrast, statewide constitutional
amendments are different: they require a 50% + 1 of all ballots cast.

How about a question related to the city's appearance, and as one
partial measure the amount of trash & graffiti on the streets? I
