'My' Minutes: Comprehensive Growth Plan Meeting (2012.3.27)

I had previously written about the Comprehensive Growth Plan Meeting we anticipated to have on March 27, 2012.

It was well attended, and I appreciate the mayors of Coopertown, Adams and Cross Plains for taking time to attend this important meeting – recall that the purpose of this meeting was to finalize the “Request for Qualifications/Proposals” to submit this document for bid to various firms.

It is our goal to have this submitted by April 12, 2012 – I will certainly keep you posted here.

Here is the heading from the “Request for Qualifications/Proposals” that I referenced in a previous paragraph. I do have this document in electronic form – if you would like a copy, please do not hesitate to contact me.
