Dear Mike:
In July 1999, you were kind enough to write a letter of support to accompany the
Hennepin County grant application we are pursuing from the Federal Highway
Administration. While the selection process for year 2000 projects has not yet been
• completed, grant applications for year 2001 projects are now being solicited.
We are in the process of reworking the grant request and will be resubmitting a new
package for consideration.
At its final 1999 meeting in December, the Hennepin County Board designated the
Lowry Corridor in north Minneapolis as a Hennepin Community Works Project. We
believe this designation shows the commitment by the Board to develop a plan to change
Lowry.
I am again asking for your support for the Lowry Corridor grant application by sending a
new letter addressed to me in support of this grant application. The letter needs to be sent
to me by January 20, 2000.
Thank you for your assistance with this grant application. If you need assistance with the
letter or would like additional information on this project, please contact Carol Lezotte at
612-348-2997.
Sincerely,
1ki
Mar J. Stenglein
