Monday, March 21st, 2005“Some of you may have heard of the Ann Arbor Downtown Development association’s plan to build a series of parking structures and commercial buildings on three city owned properties in downtown Ann Arbor,” an e-mail sent to various environmental lists begins. “Unfortuately, these three properties will be cost inefficient to build and lie directly in the path of the proposed Ann Arbor Greenway, a sustainable vision for the future of our city.”
This is a terrific line of reasoning that we intend to employ more often. Isn’t the whole point of putting the greenway there to stop those properties from being developed? “Unfortunately, [AAIO’s roommate]*, that sheepskin rug will lie directly in the path of the proposed 308 Walcott Tileway, a sustainable vision for the future of our shared sanity.”
See you all at City Hall tonight.
UPDATE: The meeting actually starts at 7, not 7:30 like the Greenway website reports.
* Not our current roommates, who are all wonderful people, but our former roommate in Boston, who is also a wonderful person.
