Urgent, in person or email action needed


Attn. residents of Steele County,
Just a reminder today is an official public hearing on a few important highway projects one of them being the east side corridor/highway being imposed on neighborhoods.
If you can't attend tonight in person, at 5:15pm at 630 Florence Avenue in Owatonna please consider typing up just a few sentences with your concerns (feel free to take points from the petition ) of the location of the corridor and emailing them to: sgolberg@co.steele.mn.us
Just be sure you mention the east side corridor in your email along with your address. This is required to count on record.
This puts sentiment on the official record which is very important to show in writing how much opposition there is to this location for this highway.
I've attached a few examples from residents in this area back in the '90s opposing this type of road at this location. As you can see, it doesn't have to be super lengthy. Ignore the alternatives mentioned. We arent being given any!
Feel free to CC us on your message at owatonnaeastsidecorridor@gmail.com if you would like us to check after the meeting to make sure your comments were officially entered. The city's been known to not be as transparent as they should as we saw with the feedback website and them not publishing comments early on.
Thank you in advance for your support and staying active in whatever capacity you can as we move towards the finish line!
