I just made myself available April 1st. I have forwarded this to Katharine. I will also bring this up at our council meeting next Tuesday. I will let you know how many from Mansfield will attend. Thank you for the invite.

Be sure and make the show if you can... it's free and open to the public. There will be constant changes to the outline which will. migrate into an actual "map" at some point. I have my "final" map in and already there are new changes as the town expands and business develops, etc. I have a lot to share. It's been a long process in Easton as much construction was going on right in the middle of the District and slowed our access to areas that we wanted to work with. Stay warm and dry.

Let's meet after April 1st. We have outlined the area. ( but there have already been some changes) The Board of Selectmen say we have their support. We have not formally met with them or the Town Administrator. Thank you so much! I would still love to see some of your district and have additional questions. So let me get with Katharine and we'll pick dates after 4/1. Thanks again Good Luck on the 25th. Hopefully all the snow will be gone by then.

Area clean up could be a problem. My next available dates would be after our April 1 show unless it is on a weekend. Let me know what you think? First steps for you would be. 1. Outline a one -mile walking area where you would like to establish a Cultural District. 2. You will be representing your Town so you want support from the Town Administrator/Manager and you will have to meet with the Board of Selectmen or Council (not sure what your town set up is) and get their approval to proceed.
