Thank you so much for your gracious invitation to speak at this ceremony. I deeply regret not being able to attend, and I hope to have the opportunity to see you at a future event. I am proud that New Haven can host such a wonderful symposium here at Yale. Over th e course of the next few days, I hope that you will take the chance to visit downtown and see our great city. As you enjoy the beautiful Yale campus, I want to provide you with one more reminder of why your work is so critical. Each year, teachers are being forced to focus more on test scores and less on learning. In 1965, President Johnson made a commitment to that our education would go further: "Every child must be encouraged to get as much education as he has the ability to take. We want this not only for his sake-but for the nation's sake. Nothing matters more to the future of our country: not military preparedness-for armed might is worthless if we lack the brain power to build a world of peace; not our productive economy- for we cmmot sustain growth without trained manpower; not our democratic system of government-for freedom is fragile if citizens are ignorant." Four decades later, the work of Dr. Comer, Dr. Levine, Dr. Kosik, and Dr. Hardiman moves us closer to a time when the best science and the best schooling will combine to provide our children the best opportunities in life. For my children and my grandchildren, I look forward to that day, and I thank you for your hard work to achieve it. *This creative impression is the work of Chris Gallo, a 4th grader at Nathan Hale School.

October 1, 2004 Saint Anthony Church 25 Gold St. New Haven, Connecticut Dear Friends of Saint Anthony: Congratulations for reaching your lOOth anniversary! You're not only one of New Raven's oldest church's, you're one of the best known, recognized as beacon in the Hill for generations of residents. In your century of service to New Haven you have helped so many different communities, from the Italian immigrants decades ago to a diverse group today which includes Filipinos, Latinos, and African Americans. As the overall congregation changes, the church remains committed to this community and we in tum remain committed to your success. The completion of your restoration project should fill all of you with pride. Saint Anthony is clearly poised for another century of service and fellowship and on behalf of the City of New Haven, I wish you well. phone 203.946.8200 fax 203.946.7683 "This creative imprmion is the work o/ Alicia Martineau , a student at Nathan Hale School. 1998 OFFICE OF THE MAYOR 165 0-IURG-I STREET • N EW HAVEN • CONNECTICUT 06510 : i{<;~ HEir~i;~~.

Our role has been to assess the ever changing needs of our community and then to educate and inform the families in our neighborhoods about public health and medical health services and resources. We strive to be the people's advocate in promoting essential public health endeavors. Ms. Hansen has shown outstanding leadership of the Maternal and Child Health Division, an area that clearly demonstrates the mission of our City's Health Department. We are very proud of our program effectiveness as demonstrated by the dramatic improvement in significant maternal and child indicators, such as infant mortality and childhood immunizations. In 1990 less than 50% of the children under two years of age were adequately immunized. Currently over 80% of children under two years of age and 95% of children from ages 3 to 5 years are adequately immunized. In 1987 the infant mortality rate for the City of New Haven was 20.2 deaths per 1000 births, and in 2002 the infant mortality rate dropped to 5.2 deaths per 1000 births. ~en ' s contributions to the public health of our community include developing special targeted programs and projects. She has high personal integrity and an engaging, energetic, and compassionate focus on maternal and child health issues.

It was the year that Louis J. Fusco founded his construction company, sure that he would build comfortable and well C01rtad - constructed homes at a reasonable price for families in the Greater New Haven area. llome A native of Benevento, Italy, Mr. Fusco was already an accomplished stone mason when he came to this country in 1903, at the age of 16. Drive and determination led the young immigrant to achievements far beyond the typical success story. By 1918 he had started his own construction firm and six years later he joined Thomas T. Amatruda to form the Fusco Amatruda Construction Company. As impressive as the firm's achievements were in construction and related fields. Mr. Fusco's philanthropic interests and concerns ranged far beyond his business. He was deeply involved in the welfare of his community. After his son, Edmund J. Fusco, joined the company full-time in 1948, Louis Fusco devoted an increasing amount of time to his church and civic activities. He continued on as Chairman of the Board until his death in 1973 at the age of 86. Edmund J. Fusco, President of the Fusco Corporation, grew up in New Haven. Connecticut. He was a navigator flying B-24s in the 15th Air Force during World War II. He earned his degree in Civil Engineering from Yale in 1948 and joined his father's business. While Ed Fusco has expanded and diversified the company beyond what Louis Fusco had originally envisioned, he has steadfastly adhered to his father's precepts of teamwork, probity and, above all, fulfilling customers' wishes.

Korta II Commissioner Department of Transportation 2800 Berlin Turnpike, P.O. Box 317546 Newington, CT 06121-7546 Re: Bridge construction schedules Dear Commissioner ~ : ~~.:/\ One of our critical concerns in New Haven during the reconstruction of the 1-95 corridor and Q Bridge is the ability of local traffic to travel on local streets and alternate travel corridors to get to work and be able to receive and ship goods and services. What the 1- 95 corridor does not address, are the number of other projects that are planned for reconstruction and repair. Most of these are bridges that are on critical routes into the city. If all or the combination of bridges are out of service at the same time, mobility through much of the city will be halted. The below lists are the bridges that we know have been, or are being designed and are scheduled to be reconstructed . • Chapel Street Bridge over P&W RR- State Project # 92-546 scheduled to be advertised Nov. 2004. Six month construction • State Street Bridge over the Mill river State Project #92-561 scheduled to be advertised Spring of 2005. One year construction • Ferry Street Bridge: State Project# 92-582 scheduled to be advertised Nov. 2005. Two years • Grand Avenue Bridge over RR: State Project # 92-412 scheduled for advertisement Fall of 2005. Two year construction • Hillhouse Bridge over Farmington Canal State Project #92-559 scheduled for advertisement Spring of 2005. Nine month construction • Blake Street Bridge over Wintergreen Brook: State Project #92-460 scheduled for construction Spring of 2005. One year construction. *This creative impression is the work of Chris Gallo, a student in the New Haven public school system. The critical bridge construction schedules that need to be closely coordinated are Chapel, State, Ferry, and Grand Avenue. We feel the best approach is to sequence the construction so that no two bridges would be out of service at the same time. We would suggest that the Chapel Street Bridge be repaired as quickly as possible followed by the Ferry Street Bridge, State Street Bridge and finally the Grand Avenue Bridge. This approach minimizes traffic disruptions and allows for all the work to be done in a sequential fashion. I would be happy to discuss this further in order to assure our city residents that all the construction work will be done to insure that mobility and safety are maintained.

I WANT TO EXPLAIN HOW I UNDERSTAND THAT HAPPENED, WHAT STEPS I HAVE TAKEN IN CONSIDERATION OF THAT FACT, AND WHY I HAVE CHOSEN TO COME BEFORE YOU PERSONALLY TONIGHT. WHAT HAPPENED • THE CITY'S FORMER LABOR RELATIONS DIRECTOR, WILL CLARK RESIGNED LATE IN 2003. MY ADMINISTRATION POSTED THE POSITION AND BEGAN SEEKING A REPLACEMENT SHORTLY THEREAFTER. KNOWING THAT THE LABOR RELATIONS DEMANDS WOULD CONTINUE -BUT NOT FOR HOW LONG, MY ADMINISTRATION DECIDED TO ENTER INTO A LEGAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH CLARK'S NEW FIRM, BERCHAM, MOSES AND DEVLIN AT A MAXIMUM COMPENSATION AMOUNT OF $20,000. THIS INITIAL CONTRACT WAS APPROVED BY BOA LEADERSHIP IN THE FASHION REQUIRED BY ORDINANCE. • THE SEARCH FOR A NEW LABOR RELATIONS DIRECTOR TOOK SOME 8 MONTHS, REQUIRING SUPPORT FROM CLARK FOR LONGER THAN INITIALLY ANTICIPATED AND CROSSING OVER INTO A SECOND FISCAL YEAR. • DURING THIS TIME PERIOD CLARK CONSISTENTLY SUBMITTED BILLS FOR HIS WORK AND NOTIFIED THE BUDGET DIRECTOR AND CORPORATION COUNSEL 1 DRAFT REGARDING THE NEED TO AMEND HIS CONTRACT. UNFORTUNATELY, NEITHER THE BUDGET DIRECTOR NOR CORPORATION COUNSEL EFFECTIVELY COMMUNICATED WITH EACH OTHER REGARDING THE NEED TO CONTACT THE BOA TO SEEK APPROVAL TO GO FORWARD. EACH MADE ASSUMPTIONS, NEITHER FELT FULLY RESPONSIBLE, AND AS A RESULT CLARK'S INITIAL CONTRACT WAS ALLOWED TO EXCEED THE APPROVED AMOUNT BY $62,000. • WHEN, FINALLY, THE FULL IMPACT OF THIS OVERAGE WAS BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE BOARD'S LEADERSHIP, IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT LEADERSHIP WAS CONCERNED ABOUT APPROVING A NEW CONTRACT FOR FYOS WITHOUT THE ISSUE OF THE ORIGINAL CONTRACT HAVING BEEN AMENDED AND RESOLVED. ABBITilSIVtt51s~ AT THAT POINT INSTEAD OF STOPPING ALL WORK WITH CLARK UNTIL THE MATTER WAS PROPERLY RESOLVED- AS WE SHOULD HAVE, MY ADMINISTRATION ALLOWED HIM TO CONTINUE WORKING UNDER THE ASSUMPTION THAT THE WORK WAS URGENT AND THE CONTRACTUAL ISSUES WOULD ULTIMATELY BE SOMEHOW RESOLVED BY THE FULL BOARD. • THIS IS AN ASSUMPTION THAT NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN MADE. IN MY RECENT DISCUSSIONS WITH THE BUDGET DIRECTOR AND THE CORPORATION COUNSEL BOTH HAVE FULLY ACKNOWLEDGED THEIR ROLE IN THIS AND THE ERRORS THAT WERE MADE IN NOT GETTING THE CONTRACTS TO THE BOARD IN A TIMELY MANNER AND IN NOT CEASING THE WORK WHEN THE CONTRACT LIMIT WAS REACHED. IF THIS CAUSED AN OPERATIONAL URGENCY - WE SHOULD HAVE JUST COMMUNICATED AS MUCH TO THE BOARD AND SOUGHT RESOLUTION. THAT IS WHAT WE SHOULD HAVE DONE, NOT WHAT WE DID. RESOLUTION • FINALLY, WHEN THIS WHOLE MATTER WAS BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF MY OFFICE, MY CHIEF OF STAFF IMMEDIATELY HAD ALL WORK BEING PERFORMED BY CLARK STOPPED. 2 .. DRAFT • SO WHAT HAVE WE DONE TO ENSURE - TO THE EXTENT HUMANLY AND REASONABLY POSSIBLE, THAT TillS NOT OCCUR AGAIN. • FIRST, CLEAR, SINGLE RESPONSIBILITY FOR CONTRACT OVERSIGHT HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED IN THE CORPORATION COUNSEL'S OFFICE. DEPARTMENTAL REQUESTS FOR LEGAL SERVICE CONTRACTS WILL FIRST BE SENT TO THE CORPORATION COUNSEL AND REVIEWED. CORPORATION COUNSEL WILL SEND WRITTEN CORRESPONDENCE TO BOTH THE REQUESTING DEPARTMENT HEAD/C~??NiWt:Of9R. AND THE ATTORNEY BEING RECOMMENDED INDICATING RECEIPT OF THE REQUEST AND CLEARLY STATING ----THAT NO WORK MAY BE INITIATED UNTIL APPROVAL HAS BEEN RECEIVED FROM THE BOA, OR LEADERSHIP OF THE BOA, AND WRITTEN COMMUNICATION IS SENT BACK TO THE DEPARTMENT HEAD/€06Rflll!JlrTOlt INDICATING AUTHORITY TO PROCEED. • SECOND, ONCE THE CONTRACT IS EXECUTED AND WORK BEGINS, CORPORATION COUNSEL IS NOW RESPONSIBLE FOR REVIEW OF ALL BILLS SUBMITTED. THIS REVIEW WILL NOW INCLUDE AN EVALUATION OF THE APPROPRIATENESS OF THE WORK CONDUCTED AND THE AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS UNDER THE CONTRACT. CORPORATION COUNSEL WILL FLAG ANY AREAS OF CONCERN AND WILL HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY AND OBLIGATION TO STOP ANY WORK THAT IS PERFORMED OUTSIDE OF THE EXECUTED CONTRACT. • THIRD, TODAY LETTERS WENT OUT TO ALL DEPARTMENT HEADS AND COORDINATORS, UNDER MY SIGNATURE, THAT UNDERSCORES THEIR OBLIGATION UNDER SECTION 2-182 OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES TO OBTAIN BOA APPROVAL BEFORE OBLIGATING OR SPENDING ANY CITY FUNDS FOR LEGAL SERVICES FROM ANY OUTSIDE LAW FIRM OR ATTORNEY. EACH SENIOR MEMBER OF MY ADMINISTRATION MUST SIGN AND RETURN THIS LETTER TO MY OFFICE BY FRIDAY INDICATING THEIR AWARENESS, 3 DRAFT UNDERSTANDING AND ACCEPTANCE OF THE CITY'S ORDINANCE. • FOURTH, 'ItffiAY'I HAVE DIRECTED CORPORATION COUNSEL TO REVIEW ALL PENDING REQUESTS FOR LEGAL SERVICE CONTRACTS TO ENSURE THAT NO WORK IS BEING CONDUCTED PRIOR TO THE APPROVAL OF THE CONTRACT. HE HAS BEEN IN COMMUNICATION WITH RECOMMENDED ATTORNEYS AND INFORMED THEM DIRECTLY THAT IN THE ABSENCE OF AN APPROVED CONTRACT THEY ARE NOT TO CONDUCT BUSINESS ON BEHALF OF THE CITY. • FINALLY, I HAVE ISSUED VERBAL AND WRITTEN REPRIMANDS TO THE CORPORATION COUNSEL AND THE BUDGET DIRECTOR WHO SHOULD HAVE EXERCISED THE PROPER OVERSIGHT OF THE WHOLE MATTER AND SEEN THAT THE ROLE OF THE BOARD OF ALDERMEN WAS RESPECTED. HERE TONIGHT o~ • NOW NONE OF THESE FACTS AMf OUR RESPONSE TO THEM REQUIRED ME TO COME HERE TONIGHT. INSTEAD, I AM HERE FOR THIS PURPOSE. OUR RESPECTIVE JOBS ARE HARD ENOUGH. AND THE COST TO THE FAMILIES OF NEW HAVEN IF EITHER OR BOTH OF US FAIL TO DO OUR JOBS IS REAL AND CONSEQUENTIAL. • CITY GOVERNMENT IS BUILT ON A SYSTEM OF CHECKS AND BALANCES. AND THE GOVERNMENT CAN ONLY WORK IF BOTH BRANCHES RESPECT THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE OTHER. IN THIS CASE I, ACTING THROUGH MY ADMINISTRATION, DID NOT ENSURE THAT THE ALDERMEN'S ROLE WAS RESPECTED. AND IT DOESN'T MATTER THAT THE SERVICES WERE NECESSARY, IT DOESN'T MATTER THAT FUNDS WERE AVAILABLE AND IT DOESN'T MATTER THAT I AM CONVINCED THAT THE CITY RECEIVED FAIR AND APPROPRIATE SERVICES FROM THE LAW FIRM INVOLVED WHAT MATTERS IS THAT THE CITY CAN ONLY WORK IF WE RESPECT EACH OTHER - AND EACH OTHER'S RESPONSIBILITIES. AND IN THIS CASE I LET YOU DOWN. 4 DRAFT • I CAN'T CHANGE WHAT HAPPENED. NOR DO THE SAFEGUARDS THAT I NOW PUT IN PLACE CHANGE WHAT HAPPENED. NOR DOES MY BEING HERE TONIGHT CHANGE THESE FACTS. IN THE END I AM HERE FOR TWO REASONS. FIRST, TO AFFIRM TO YOU - IN PERSON AND IN PUBLIC - THAT I UNDERSTAND THAT I DIDN'T GET THE JOB DONE IN THIS CASE, THAT I LET MY END OF THE BARGAIN DOWN. AND I'LL DO EVERYTHING I CAN THINK OF TO NOT LET IT HAPPEN AGAIN. AND SECOND I'M HERE TONIGHT TO SEND A CLEAR MESSAGE TO MY OWN STAFF THAT I TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY ENOUGH, TO COME HERE TONIGHT TO PERSONALLY - AND NOT THROUGH ANYONE ELSE - TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT I MEAN WHAT I SAY. ? ....

Category of nomination ------~Check~n. ~·~------* Career Public Servant at the State or Local Level American Medical Association Physicians dedicated to the health of America lll. Brief biographical statement about nominee: Pamela Hansen received her B.S. in Health Education from the University of Toronto in 1979 and her M.P.H. from Southern Connecticut State University in 1993. She began her career with the City in 1993 as the Health Track Coordinator. In addition, she served as the Coordinator for Healthy Start from 1996 through 1998. Ms. Hansen has been the Director of Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Division for the New Haven Health Department since 1998. She currently manages a Division of eighteen people which includes a Maternal and Newborn Outreach Support Program, the HUSKY Insurance Program for uninsured pregnant women and their families, the Pediatric Immunization Program and the Women's Health Program. The MCH Division was created in the Health Department in 1990 in response to the high infant mortality rate and the urgent need to help pregnant women and their children successfully access the health care system. The MCH Division also assesses the capacity of the community's health care facilities to treat families in a culturally sensitive manner. During Ms. Hansen's tenure, the Maternal and Child Health Division's operating budget has increased by 100%. She has been instrumental in establishing partnerships throughout the New Haven Region. Ms. Hansen's leadership has facilitated the collaboration and expansion of numerous programs whose goal it is to reduce infant mortality and racial disparities in birth outcomes. She actively promotes opportunities for system change between and among health care institutions, community health centers and clinics, and, municipal government programs. Ms. Hansen is a member of the Health Track Regional Council, the Commission on Infant Health, the Joint Project Advisor Committee (JP AC) on Infant Mortality, the State of Connecticut's Perinatal Partnership Council, and, she was appointed by the Mayor to the New Haven School Readiness Council and the Early Education Task Force. IV. I I We nominate the above for the Dr Nathan Davis Awards for Outstanding Government Service because: We are pleased to nominate Ms. Pamela Hansen, Director of Maternal and Child Health (MCH) for the City ofNew Haven for the prestigious Dr. Nathan Davis Award. During her tenure, Ms. Hansen has assumed a visionary leadership role in the New Haven community-focusing on the issues that impact the health and well-being of women and children. Ms. Hansen has been with the New Haven Health Department since 1993. At that time, she was the Health Track Coordinator-assessing and ensuring that children were receiving appropriate Medicaid services in the City. In 1996, she became the Healthy Start Coordinator--coordinating insurance coverage for uninsured and under-insured pregnant women and children. In 1998, Ms. Hansen assumed the Directorship of the Maternal and Child Health Division. Under Ms. Hansen's administration, the MCH Division successfully partnered with local Community Health Centers and the Visiting Nurse Association to be the lead agency for the South Central Regional HUSKY (Connecticut's Children's Health Insurance Program) Contract to identify and enroll uninsured pregnant women and children. Ms. Hansen facilitated the collaboration with the Community Foundation for Greater New Haven (CFGNH) to establish the Perinatal Partnership whose goal is to reduce infant mortality and racial disparities in birth outcomes. In January 2000, she developed a well-attended, successful "Forum on Racial Disparity in Birth Outcomes." In addition, she has been as active member of the management team, with the CFGNH, for the Federal Healthy Start Grant Program (Federal Grant to Reduce Infant Mortality). Ms. Hansen has secured funding for MCH paraprofessional staff training through this grant. Ms. Hansen has created two successful social marketing campaigns: "Healthy Moms, Beautiful Babies" and "HUSKY ... Do Your Children Have Health Insurance?" Ms. Hansen works diligently to bring other Maternal and Child Health Programs to the City- Healthy Families (A Child Abuse Prevention Program), a Preschool Immunization Program and a Fetal Infant Mortality Review (FIMR). Many MCH Indicators have shown dramatic improvements under Ms. Hansen's tenure. In 1990, less than 50% of the children under 2 years of age were adequately immunized. Currently, over 80% of children under 2 years of age, and, 95% of children from ages 3 to 5 years are adequately immunized. In 1987, the infant mortality rate for the City of New Haven was 20.2 deaths per 1000 births, and, in 2002, the infant mortality rate was _5.2 deaths_per 1000 births. Ms. Hansen contributes significantly to improving the health and well-being of our City and helps us all find more creative and effective ways to address the health needs of our cormnunity. It is a privilege and honor for us to submit Ms. Hansen for nomination!

Mft'sY' I write to invite you to a meeting to discuss solutions to the recent increase in youth violence that has occurred in New Haven. While the City has seen a significant decrease in crime in the past few years, the recent highly publicized gun violence, retaliations and other illegal acts by minors has caused me great concern. There is no problem that the New Haven community cannot overcome by working together, so I want to address this situation head-on by inviting members of the community, the police department and my administration to convene and deliberate on ways to prevent such incidents. The "Anti-Violence Solutions Group" will meet: Wednesday, November 3, 2004 City Hall, 165 Church Street Second Floor, Meeting Room #1 6p.m. Dinner will be provided. I look forward to meeting with you, and working toward a common goal to end youth violence in New Haven with the help of innovative ideas from you and your peers. It is our City's youth who are the future leaders of our community and represent the future of our great city, so I hope you can meet with me to discuss solutions for this vulnerable population.

I trust you know this is a mutual concern. The current situation is unacceptable; it would not be appropriate for me to say much more than to reiterate my appreciation for your community efforts. I have the highest respect for your persistence, advocacy and special attention to the quality of life in Fair Haven and Fair Haven Heights. We have taken a number of steps to mitigate the adverse impact of the bridge closure. Of note, we made safety improvements on Quinnipiac A venue; repaired the sidewalk on the Grand A venue Bridge; and recently improved the alignment and sidewalks on Front Street as it meets Grand Avenue. That said, allow me to respond specifically to the requests listed at the end of your letter. I have and will continue to intervene on the design process and schedule as needed. As you know, we proposed an optimistic schedule to DOT, which reflected our urgency on this project. To date, DOT has reviewed the project in a timely fashion, but believes a standard schedule is more appropriate. This is a point of disagreement that we continue to work through. Related to this, the Engineering Department is now working on a critical path analysis, focused specifically on permits and potential schedule breakers. As I have stated before, the mutual cooperation of city officials and state design I review professionals is essential and I routinely discuss this project with state officials. The final point is of particular interest. The City Plan Department will engage the DEP to look creatively at the permits needed and outline a process that reflects the urgency of the situation and not standard operations.

As I believe these projects will further improve neighborhood quality of life, I encourage you to stay in touch with the City Plan Department and provide any/all comments on their implementation. As I said earlier, your comments are extremely important to us. We remain committed to timely communication at bi-monthly aldermanic briefings and at future community meetings. City officials will continue to update you at these meetings, with more specific emphasis on the action steps mentioned above. JDS/KMG:mp cc.

This project represents a critical area in the Consolidated Plan for housing development in New Haven. It will provide needed housing opportunities for individuals and families at or below median income in an increasingly competitive residential market. Additionally, it will bring us closer to resuscitating an area that is currently a focus of revitalization eff01ts for our Gty.

October 21, 2004 Andy Ciaccio Art's T.V. & Appliance 274 State St. North Haven, CT 06473 Dear Andy: A few weeks ago I hosted a presidential debate pizza party at City Hall with Mayor James Richetelli of Milford. We invited dozens of High School students from New Haven and Milford to eat pizza, discuss the issues, and then watch the debate. The idea was to encourage young people to think about politics and how the election affects them. It was a huge success and much of it is because of you! The large screen television you supplied enabled the students, parents, teachers and Mayors to enjoy the debate in a way that wouldn't have been possible otherwise. It's a safe bet that the students will be talking about this event for years to come and I hope you realize that's in large part because of you. Thanks for your help.

Loughlin Fitzgerald, PC 150 South Main Street Wallingford, CT 06492 Dear Mr. Loughlin: Thank you for writing to me about your very interesting idea concerning relocating I-95 to the air rights over the railroad tracks. I agree that the highway is an unfortunate barrier to our waterfront. I have initiated a number of projects to promote access, including a community boathouse at Long Wharf Pier, improvements to Long Wharf Park and construction of the Church Street South Bridge. The railroad right-of-way is unfortunately far narrower in many places than would be needed for I-95, its travel lanes and safety shoulders. Additional land would have to be acquired, much of it residential and commercial, and revenue generating. We cannot afford to lose more homes or taxes to road construction. The noise and exhaust from an elevated roadway would be a blighting influence on the neighborhood through which it passed. In addition, since the railroad I ine has been electrified there are metal truss structures which support the electric power lines - called catenaries, which rise high above the tracks. The highway would have to be elevated above them and would then be a visual barrier, shadowing the surrounding areas. Thanks again for writing.
