So, Is the Rhode Island Task Force defunct, now that HTJ has resigned? Before HTJ resigned he was working on getting someone to lead the RIA Great Streets program. Did he ever find anyone?
No, it’s not defunct (but sort of in limbo). PCDC is leading another Task Force meeting – check the Ward 5 list-serve for info.
What if I can’t make this FoRIA meeting? Can someone look into the large number of trees Pepco cut down along RIA? Does Pepco intend to replace them?
We’ll make sure the Street-Scape Committee takes this under consideration.
I tried to email the address to RSVP but got my email returned?
Hi Ruby! Our mistake, the email address is a .ORG info@friendsofria.org
We apologize for the confusion and have you down as a YES for the event. Look forward to seeing you there!
