Dear Readers:

I am taking a Spanish Course at the Cambridge Center of Chesapeake College. My instructor gave me a handout regarding the college’s Institute for Adult Learning (IAL) and courses that are available.

Here is the link to the IAL webpage:

Please take a look to see what might interest you or what may be interesting that you might like to teach.

Dear Readers:

Here is an email from the city manager to the mayor and commissioners that I am forwarding to you along with the attached city 10 year clean water plan. I have read through the plan that has many good ideas in it. I am not sure how far along we are in its implementation but thought that it would be something that would be of interest to CAN and its members.

CAN Meeting – Thursday, March 14, 7:00 pm

Posted on by

Just a reminder that the next CAN Meeting is next Thursday, March 14th at 7:00 pm in the WHCP meeting room at 516 Race St.

Mary Losty is giving a short presentation on the Empowerment Center, and then George Vojtech and Herve Harmon will speak on the new processes of the Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) for the West End.

The HPC has been working extremely hard to improve the process, to ensure that HPC requirements are clear and understandable, and to make it quicker and easier to apply and obtain approval for proposed projects. George and Herve will take questions from the audience.

We all have stories about former HPC commissions and their actions, but it’s a new day and a new attitude for the current HPC. George and Herve cannot change the past, so please focus on the new HPC process, existing building codes, the façade improvement program and any other ideas that will improve the look of our City.

Please attend and bring a friend, all are welcomed.
