Folks. The police commissioner didn't show up for the meeting scheduled with the ACLU and the brave citizens whom are being intimidated and arrested in Rittenhouse Square. They sent a group of top brass instead with a we're looking into the issue response. Consequently, the leaders and ACLU

West, I see that I have 2 addresses for your assistant, Jonathon Snyder. I made a mistake. I decided to send it to Snyder at the last moment. I have no respect for him or Siano so I wasn't concerned about communicating with them like with the responsible adults in the association. Please

[UC] Question for SHCA Board

Dear SHCA Board members, It has come to the attention of the citizens of West Philadelphia that civic association boards were required to give the names of three of their association board members in order to be given a representative on the UCD Board. I've noticed that your, Barry Grossbach,

[UC] FS: Casablanca ceiling fan

I have a Casablanca ceiling fan I need to pass on to someone else. I'm asking $100, but price is negotiable: it will go to the best offer. It's a reasonably high-end fan, albeit used. Five (or six?) speed, plus reversible direction (at all speeds). Self-balancing and mountable on any pitch

[UC] Talk of a community meeting -- who requested it, what would be the objective?

2007-06-10 Thread Krfapt
The postings about the recent First Thursday meeting made if fairly clear that the message between the lines of Councilwoman's presentation was that the NID initiative is dead. However, there were a few things posted about the possibility of a community meeting on the topic. It wasn't at

Al, I would say #4. My opinion about and my own reason for supporting the motion was to demand accountability. Of course if UCD continues to stonewall or refuses to show up, I would imagine that the discussion at such a community forum would turn to, how do we get rid of UCD? I know that I

It was (d), Al. The motions came from the floor. And it wasn't specifically about the NID, which is of no relevance to the UCD services currently spearheaded in the community by John Fenton. The meeting made clear these UCD services have been warmly appreciated by many community groups. But
