What you have in front of you <br /> (available in the City Clerk's Office)just touches on a few key things so that you can frame any <br /> questions you might have for July. You can share those with me by email so that when the update <br /> happens,we can speak directly to those, as well. Essentially,the charge we have from this Council <br /> and the Executive Director is to work with the NRC as partners to scale up meaningful engagement <br /> in our neighborhoods as well as making sure that the eighty-seven percent(87%)of folks who are <br /> not represented by a civic organization find an opportunity and space to engage with the NRC by <br /> way of the NRC and all of our bureaucrats here. We will soon be launching more of a fundraising <br /> effort around this. So, side note, if you know anyone who has an interest in neighborhood <br /> revitalization, please get them in contact with me. Please go ahead and mark your dates for this. <br /> This will be fun. <br /> She continued, Another thing that is really exciting in the way of fundraising with the NRC is we <br /> won a $10,000 grant from the Community Foundation to host a youth Council.
