I am forwarding this email sent to me by Ed Goppelt, who attended last night's meeting on Bill 629 and has reported on it on his website. He's also linked to a story about the meeting in today's Daily Pennsylvanian. The meeting was also filmed and may be available to view online soon. I had a little trouble opening Ed Goppelt's web site with the address he gave, but got into it easily just using Devbob.com and going from there to Bill 629. You may have read about Ed earlier this summer in an Inquirer column written, I believe, by Tom Ferrick. One correction: Gregorio Cojulun is president of the Garden Court Community Assn, not of the University City Community Council. Melani Lamond, secretary, UCCC
Melani, I wanted to thank UCCC for organizing the meeting last night. I particularly appreciated the opportunity to hear a Bill 629 supporter "in the flesh." FYI, I've posted photos and a news story on last night's meeting at: http://www.devbob.com/bill629 Here is the address for the web page I was telling you about last night. You can write a letter about 629 which my computer will then fax to all 17 members of City Council. The page also includes background info. on 629 as well ideas on what to write: http://www.devbob.com/faxgw/bill629/faxForm -- Ed Goppelt
