Candidate Forum – Monday April 13 – 6:30PM

Posted Apr 12, 2009 10:01pm by Chris Jones in Events | Comments Off

North Shoal Creek is partnering with other north central neighborhoods to host the North Central Austin Neighborhoods Candidate Forum this Monday, April 13th at 6:30pm at Wozniak Hall, St Louis Catholic Church, 7601 Burnet Rd. Our area is rapidly growing, and it is important for us to have a clear voice in the developments affecting our neighborhood. By joining together with the Allandale, Brentwood, Crestview, Highland and Wooten neighborhoods, we hope our united voices make an impact on the candidates that will last long after the votes have been counted. Our aim is to let the candidates know what are important priorities for our neighborhoods and have them speak directly to these specific issues. Other forums exist to tackle city-wide issues—the goal of this forum is to strengthen the voice of north central Austin neighborhoods.

The forum website has much more information including the video we produced called “Room to Live” that shows how mixed use development could work in our neighborhoods.

The forum is runs from 6:30 to 9:00 PM, with the first half hour devoted to mixing with candidates and presentations explaining our neighborhood issues of concern. Candidate questioning will begin
at 7:00 PM sharp.

The election is Saturday, May 9th. Be informed. Vote your choice for Austin’s Mayor and City Council Members (Places 1, 2, 5 and 6).
