INC NEWS - Fw: [CVNA] CVNA neighborhood concerns for INC meeting

[Mike - Hotmail]

Wow!

What a fine compliment to show to INC (see below)!

This member neighborhood demonstrates the core reason many of us attend 
community meetings and get togethers......it 'connects' us to a larger body.

Many thanks to Angel for the posting encouraging neighborhood involvement!
