Farewell Ward Breakfast – 8:00 a.m., Wed., April 20
50th St. Cafe (formerly Pearson’s Restaurant)
The news that Pearson’s Restaurant has closed coincides with changes my office will be making to our community outreach efforts. The Ward Breakfast, which we’ve held at Pearson’s since I took office five years ago, has been a great way to connect with folks on City issues from potholes and snow removal to property taxes and pensions. I will be sorry to see it go, but I am excited to broaden our outreach to involve more neighbors, many of whom had difficulty attending a morning meeting.
We have had great success holding issue-based meetings over the last few years, including our Development Meeting, our Annual Budget Meeting, and smaller meetings like the ones we held on business issues and localized traffic and livability concerns. I look forward to holding more of these meetings in the next few years and I welcome your suggestions for topics. Please join me in April to say goodbye to the Ward Breakfast!
