educational <br />campaign. Our goal is to raise approximately $100,000. Therefore, we <br />are asking each municipality to consider donating up to 20 cents per capita. Private <br />funds are also being raised to finance an advocacy campaign. The League information <br />is included as an attachment. <br />Delmar Resurfacing and Parking in the Loop <br />: <br /> <br />We met with the County on Thursday to discuss when the micro-surfacing would occur <br />on Delmar in the Loop. We had requested that it occur after business hours. They <br />could not delay the micro-surfacing until after 1 AM because the material will not cure <br />properly at prolonged night colder temperatures meaning that the street would not be <br />ready to open for morning rush hours. They chose Sunday and Monday night in <br />cooperation with our Police Dept. because Tues –Sat are the busiest nights in the Loop. <br /> <br />The attached notice will be delivered to residents & property owners beginning today. <br />The County's approach seems reasonable. At all times, Delmar will be open to two-way <br />traffic, however, to accomplish that, there will be no parking for two nights. All parking <br />lots, driveways, crosswalks and the city-parking garage will be made accessible so that <br />vehicles can park while the work is being performed on those two nights. <br /> <br />Rescheduled Flea Market is still on! <br /> As you know, the Flea Market originally <br />scheduled for last Saturday was cancelled in expectation of Hurricane Ike coming <br />through. Despite the mess at Centennial Commons due to Ike, the rescheduled Flea <br />Market is still on and will be held at the Commons/Heman Park Swimming Pool parking <br />th <br />lot from 8 am to 2 pm this Saturday, Sept 20. If it should rain, it will be held inside <br />Centennial Commons on the soccer turf. <br /> <br />National Public Lands Day <br />: <br /> <br />National Public Lands Day <br />The Green Center invites you to come celebrate on <br />Saturday, September 27, from 9 am to noon, local volunteers will roll up their sleeves <br />and devote their day to removing invasive Euonymus (winter creeper vine), and litter <br />along a stretch of the River des Peres in University City’s Ruth Park Woods. There will <br />be a registration table located at McKnight Road and Crixdale Lane, where volunteers <br />can sign up, collect their tools, and join the team. <br /> <br />While this special cleanup is part of National Public Lands Day, an annual event that <br />gives Americans across the country a chance to give back to the lands they use for <br />recreation. The cleanup in Ruth Park Woods is part of The Green Center’s and River <br />des Peres Watershed Coalition’s ongoing work to restore this urban, woodland jewel by <br />removing some of its greatest threats—invasive plant species and garbage. <br /> <br />Upcoming Meetings and Events: <br />Saturday, Sept. 20: 8:30 AM Full Day Council Retreat/Goal Setting <br />in the Centennial Commons Board Room <br />Monday, Sept. 22: 5:30 PM Follow Up Study Session Council <br />re Rules and Procedures <br />Monday, Sept. 22: 6:30 PM Council Meeting <br /> <br />
