The Macalester-Groveland Community Council invites you to attend the Annual Neighborhood Gathering and 2011 Board of Elections!

Attend your Annual Neighborhood Gathering & Board Elections

Thursday, April 14th, 6:30 - 8:30 PM
Smail Gallery, Macalester College (see map for location)

This meeting is an opportunity to learn more about the work of YOUR district council, the Macalester-Groveland Community Council. Learn about issues affecting the Mac-Groveland neighborhood and get involved with grassroots neighborhood improvement efforts by voting for representatives on the Board.

This year the meeting will focus on issues affecting Macalester-Groveland Community Council and will feature breakout sessions related to transportation and crime prevention. The transportation focus is on transit options in the neighborhood and this discussion will be led by Transit for Livable Communities and Nice Ride. The crime prevention focus is on identity theft and community crime prevention led by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Saint Paul Police Department.

The evening will also include the election of half of the community council's Board of Directors, which includes all odd-numbered grid representatives, two at-large residential representatives, a representative of area businesses, and a representative of area religious institutions. This year there are also two mid-term positions that are up for election: the Grid 16 representative and a second at-large business representative. These two positions will be up for election again at the Annual Meeting next year.
