Loop Funding on Senate Agenda Friday

Much discussion has been had about the Loop.  Many are against it, while there is also a group of people who maintain that something like a Loop could provide economic benefits for Central as a growqing community.  If you are against the Loop, you may be interested to know that a group of Central citizens are going in the morning to protest the funding for another study of the Loop. 

According to a representative from Cliff Richardson's office, a commitment was made to meet with the citizens of the City of Central to discuss the Loop, and that commitment was never fulfilled.  Some community members are going to the Capitol to voice their opposition tomorrow, since the Loop funding will be part of the Senate agenda.  Cards in opposition to restore this funding will be available to you from the Sergeant At Arms.  Citizens are encouraged to let all senators know your stance on the Loop issue.  If you are against funding for the Loop, people are gathering at 9:00 a.m. tomorrow (Friday) at the Louisiana State Capitol on the Senate side.  If you have any questions about this, call Deana at Rep. Richardson's office at 261-5739.
