Previously, NAC noted that both the East Spring Street Neighborhood Association (ESNA) and then the S. Ellen Jones Neighborhood Association (SEJ) voted to merge.
S. Ellen Jones votes tonight on neighborhood association merger proposal.
ESNA meeting tonight: Merger with SEJ to be discussed and a vote taken.
From last evening's ESNA meeting comes word via e-mail that, "Some members expressed reservations about proceeding with the merger."
For some reason, I'm reminded of those locals who oppose reopening the K & I bridge, reasoning that those evil Portlanders would soon come streaming across to New Albany.
Of course, the Portlanders harbor a polar opposite concern.
When times get tough, we forget the reasons why we won the Second World War. That's too bad, because speaking personally, and in both word and deed, I support maximum unity in the city's neighborhoods, because combining resources and concentrating efforts are the only ways to even begin checking the rot and reversing the negligence wrought by two terms of Brother Price’s Traveling Deprivation Show.
Just my opinion. I'm sure there are others.
The title of this post suggests that thought is somehow present here.

I've been missing your no "BS" insight.
ReplyDeleteIt has always been so that inclusion wins over exclusion. The clock keeps ticking, even if you turn away from the clock.
