Historic Preservation of Newtown

I have been listed as a member and supporter of Ketchikan for
a Positive Economy! I am not a member, and as a member of the
Newtown Historic District Neighborhood Association, I have been
greatly encouraged by that very group to cease and desist from
trying to influence the vote for the expansion of berth 3 in
any manner whatsoever. So I do not subscribe to their or anyone's
attempt to do so.
They have been instrumental
in having the Borough refuse any involvement in the residents
of that neighborhood's attempt to become engaged in the process
so I am now unengaged.
I am for the Historic Preservation
of Newtown.
If my inclusion on this list
is the result of having signed a sheet of paper at the kickoff
party of their group held at the Bowling Alley, I thought it
was an attendance sheet. Better pay closer attention.
