    It’s been a year since the huge public turnout to help craft the plan. Please turnout tonight at 6 pm and wear a “Pass the Plan” sticker. The discussions will go on for awhile so come down to City Hall whenever you can. Thanks.

    We were set to close and start renovating a badly neglected historic house on Libby Terrace today. We sighed when we found foundation damage. We cringed when the termite damage was bad, and sellers wouldn’t repair it, but we pressed on. But between the change in the Master Plan we read about in the paper this morning, and the sellers being so upside-down on their finances that they can’t afford to sell… it won’t be happening. Will that once-beautiful house be the first casualty of Echo Harbor?
