Hopefully, all members of the Transportation Action group will have received an invitation to join the listserve. Join and use the simple address to contact all members of the group.

Also, our next SWS main meeting, this coming Monday, October 15, will feature two speakers addressing (one each) the pro and con aspects of the pending RTID (Proposition 1) on this November's ballot. Transportation Choices Coalition's Rob Johnson will present the "pro" side. The Sierra Club will present the "con" side (as of today, Sierra Club had not identified a speaker by name). Join the rest of us at Camp Long Monday evening to get better informed on one-half of the Proposition 1 issue.

The legislature tied the ST2 and RTID together as a single vote for Proposition 1. It's a tough call but this Monday's forum should help you decide.

new list serve for transportation group

We've now got a list-serve for getting messages out to the entire transportation group with a single address. I'll be sending messages via the list-serve to the existing group members. The first message should invite you to join the list. We can all then use a single address to email the rest of us. Stay tuned as I get this underway.

Also, this evening I'm meeting with Chris Arkills to begin the discussion on what the Transportation Symposium we're planning for Spring ought to include and how it ought to be set up. I'll post the results of that initial discussion here and we can all follow through with comments and further suggestions.

Right now we're looking at May 3, 10 or 17 - they are all Saturdays.
