Locally Grown: show for week of 10.15.06
Oct.17 2006 at 07:06 by Griff Wigley
The focus of this week’s episode was transportation, specifically, County Highway 1 and the Corridor Preservation Study for Rice County. See Tracy’s But Where Does the Bridge Go? post last week for background, links, and a map. “The idea behind the study is to identify potential routes for an east-west arterial road south of Hwy. 19, since the 2025 Rice County Transportation Plan indicates that such a road may be needed.”
Other topics briefly touched: Center for Sustainable Living’s Community Composting project, the Farmer’s Market, Mill Towns Trail, Third Thursday, and the proposed Northfield Skateboard Park.
You won’t hear my voice, as I was off to a meeting in the Cities with my financial advisor who’s also on my compensation committee.

[…] Glenn submitted a comment a week ago with his reaction to our Oct. 15 show/podcast on transportation. (I fumbled the e-ball because I neglected to subscribe to our Odeo Inbox’s RSS feed which would alert me to new submission. Duh. It’s not yet been remedied because the feed is evidently broken. Ack!)
