Calling all Twitter & Facebook users! We need your help!
Thursday Jan. 7, a team from the E. 12th Coalition and SAHA (our partner developer) will meet with city staff to review a People’s Proposal for E. 12th! This is a major step in our campaign, but the fight is not over. We need to keep up the pressure on city council members to support our proposal.
We are thrilled that District 5 Councilmember Noel Gallo has officially endorsed our proposal (!) and we want to lift him up as a champion and an example for other council members. Will you help by sending 3 tweets or Facebook posts TOMORROW using#SaveE12th?
What you can do:
1. THANK GALLO
