Sloane Community Forum TOMORROW NIGHT-- Wednesday July 6
Posted: Tue Jul 05, 2011 11:13 pm
Hi all,
We were reminded at tonight's LO coffee that this forum is tomorrow night. I'm copying this over from the announcements so it doesn't get missed. Some of the discussion this evening was about the Detroit Theater community forum: it was pointed out that these forums are not only of interest to residents who live in the neighborhood being discussed, but to any citizen of Lakewood interested in the future of our city, how it is being developed, who it is being developed by, and what sort of policy is taking shape in our City to manage and/or encourage it.
It was also noted at the meeting that it's important to the future of Lakewood that we interact with our relatively new administration, and pay attention and participate when they make an effort to include the community. Mayor Summers, his directors and the new members of Council have their own way of doing things and there isn't a better way to get to know about your elected (and appointed) officials than by observing them in action, and interacting with them.
Thanks Councilman Anderson for initially posting this and for doing your part to provide the opportunity to the citizens of Lakewood.
If you have the time to get to St. Peter's tomorrow at 7, it will be worth it.

Hello -
Lakewood has been contacted by a residential development company interested in redeveloping three properties on the west side of Sloan Avenue for 19 townhomes.
As is the case with any potential development, this exciting opportunity will go through a series of public input and discussion sessions, including community meetings and board/commission hearings. Everyone's input is important.
So, please join Mayor Summers, the planning and development team and me on Wednesday, July 6, 7:00 p.m., at St. Peter's Episcopal Church (18001 Detroit Avenue - corner of West Clifton and Detroit).
Homes on Sloane, Edanola, etc. have received the attached.
Yours in service,
David W. Anderson
Councilman, Ward 1
