I have written a letter to the editor of the CHA ( even though I was told by the editor that it would be published, it was not ) requesting that the meeting agenda be published prior to the CHA meetings. It is supposed to be published according to the by-laws, but has not been for the last three or four meetings.
In the last newsletter it was stated that “constant Contact” was being used to inform members and non- members of the agenda, however, I have never received a “constant contact” message about anything. I have also asked current members if they have been receiving agendas for upcoming meetings and they have not.
The CHA web site does not have anything past 2013. When a search is done for anything for 2014, nothing comes up and the site reverts to 2013.
Why not publish the agenda here or on the CHA web site? Constant Contact is, as it has been in the past used to SELECTIVELY inform the community of issues and planned actions of the CHA. Be as forthcoming as you claim to be and publish the agenda so that EVERYONE knows what’s coming up!!
Can someone help me the picture please – are we looking at what is now Modelogic? And the photographer is taking a picture beside the current Suntrust building (to his/her right)? Or do I this completely backwards? Thanks!
Aud – the view is from in front of the Suntrust, looking west across 25th Street. None of those building are there anymore, it’s now the park across from St.John’s.
Ooooh, looking west, I see. Thanks John! 🙂
