[Jayhawk-chapter] Let's Meet The New City Comission

[Rob Tabor]

Dear fellow Jayhawk Federationists,

 

You are most likely aware that Lawrence has a newly elected city commission
with 3 of its 5 members being newly elected on April 7. The inaugural
meeting of the new city commission will take place at City Hall, #6 East
Sixth, on April 14, commencing at 5:45pm.

 

Below my close and name block you will find the relevant portion of the
Lawrence City Commission agenda. I think it would be a very good idea for as
many of us as possible to attend the meeting and to introduce ourselves to
the commissioners during the reception which takes place during the brief 20
minute recess before the new commissioner orientation cession. This is a
very good way of helping our chapter to be more visible at City Hall so the
commissioners will recognize us when we pay a visit to the commission in the
near future, whether it be for a weekly regular business meeting, a study
session, or one-to-one sessions with a specific commissioner. Key city staff
members will be on hand as well, and it will also be good for us to make
their acquaintance.

 

So let's give this some very serious thought and I hope to see you there.

 

Best regards,

Rob Tabor | president Jayhawk Chapter NFB of Kansas
