Meetings Planned with Elected Officials
The Better Avondale committee is meeting with State Rep. Roger Goodman the week of May 20th. In an email last week, Rep. Goodman said, “I stand ready to help in any way I can.”
A representative from State Rep. Springer’s office may attend as well. He is very interested in our project to improve Avondale. Rep. Goodman stated that “Rep. Larry Springer, is also well positioned to help you, as a member of the House Transportation Committee.” The Better Avondale Committee is grateful to Jeb Shepard for attending our 4/22 public forum and arranging the meetings with our State representatives.
Councilmember Kathy Lambert has already scheduled a meeting with the County Roads Division to discuss options for Avondale Road. She has written our committee to confirm her support and plans to meet with us after her discussion with the County. We expect those meetings to take place in June. The Better Avondale Committee appreciates the attendance of Christine Jensen, Policy Director for Kathy Lambert, at the public forum on April 22nd. Christine has been instrumental in arranging the meeting between her office and the Roads Division.

Good news! Representative Goodman has agreed to meet with committee members here on Avondale, instead of his office, in order to get a better understanding of our issues. Jeb Shepard, his legislative aide, is trying to arrange the attendance also of Representative Springer and his legislative aide. Our thanks to Jeb for attending our forum on 4/22 and for working hard to coordinate this important meeting with the Avondale committee.
