Seattle Neighborhood Coalition

"Forget about spring clean-up in your yard! This next Saturday, March 11, the SNC discussion is one you won't want to miss. Transportation solution or boondoggle?

"Responding to the public outcry that 'We must do something,' Sound Transit has proposed a multibillion dollar underground light rail through Seattle. Paralleling prominent earthquake fault lines, its cost, design, route and effectiveness has undergone much costly study and challenge.

"Among those challengers has been Emory Bundy, environmentalist and public transportation advocate, who now intends to file a lawsuit against Sound Transit. Hear his reasons this Saturday at SNC. Sharing the program is Dick Nelson, public transportation analyst, who will bring new data that defines the problems and challenges of designing public transportation in this region. 9:00 AM Greenhouse Cafe, 2205 7th Ave. See you there."
