harewood town meeting

[vanislandrev]

Don't worry, as soon as the enrollment at the university sky rockets (which is going to happen with the recession) the banks will all be eyeing up a place to set up shop.

I did not even know about it. Where was it and how many turned out? What was the purpose and how does a south-end resident find out about the next one?

Next one is on April 21st, same location, Georgia school.
Usually it will post on the papers. I went there first time last night. About 30+ people turned out, packed whole classroom, from the city planner, community police, several local organization, university rep, nursing student, VIHA, university village, school district 68.

Its the one to watch then. Perhaps someone with a keener mind could post that information a little closer to the event?

Did anybody go there?
i was there tonight, great turn out. If you miss it, you should come to next one, very informative; open my eyes to this neighbourhood.

University villeage actually let us know that, there are no banks, credit union interested in opening branch in Harewood, this is very disappointed.

i think bankers think university students, resident of harewood have no money or what?

any of our current/prospective politicians there?
