Important public meetings next week

  • Posted by i69news on August 15th, 2007 filed in INDOT

These public meetings might represent a next-to-last opportunity to speak publically against I-69 and meet up with other opponents of the road in this format. While meetings like these have been an important space for dissent over the past decade or so, there will be very few chances like this in the future, so try to make it out if you can. From a CARR email:

is holding four meetings to “plan” for I-69. They are open to the public.

    This is such a red herring. I-69 (and “progress” in general, usually) has nothing to do with helping the poor. Along its route in Indiana, a few strip mall jobs will be added, while a few building companies rake in billions.
