Women’s History Month update from Jean.
We had an explanation about the recognition. Jean received an appreciative round of applause from the attendees at the RONA meeting.
Jean will email about the recognition info to the RONA list.
Agnews - Re: Community Room
We did not get much of an update. There is a lot of unsettled information about what will be built and when.
Two schools to start and a third later?
Probably going to be extended for finishing farther out than the previously thought of 2019 completion.
Jean will email “Larry” for possible more information
Charcot OverPass
Discussion started and then some attendees became confused between school issues and the overpass. We tried to get the attendees back on track without a lot of success.
We were able to get some information from our local reps.
Plan from 2012 and will likely be implemented, timing unsure at this point.
The overpass is part of the Master Plan that was already approved.
Will keep an eye for more information

Jean trying to find out where the rest of the money has gone
