Henry said separate discussions between the Community <br />Investment (CI) Department and individual Councilmembers were counter to transparency and <br />inclusiveness. Henry felt input was needed from all Councilmembers and the public if real progress was <br />to be made in addressing corridor improvements. Henry said he hoped the fractured approach recently <br />seen in efforts to improve LaSalle Park not be repeated. Only true transparency of ideas and allocation <br />of resources would lead to positive results for the corridors. <br />Henry adjourned at 5:12 P.M. <br />Respectfully Submitted, <br />Gavin Ferlic, Chairperson <br />Community Investment <br />
