Two meetings coming up today

I apologize for this short notice. I've been knowing about the meeting for the Red Line extension but have been seemingly slow on this trigger. I'm sure it was mentioned here, but if it wasn't then perhaps it wasn't at the forefront of my mind as I thought.

The information here was added with a note expressing the importance of showing strong attendance numbers. Hopefully that could make the news and even without that at least more people will know and talk about this project.

BTW, the Tribune made note of today's open house meeting so it's certainly getting some press. Perhaps more if people show up to it!
