Dear neighbors,
With the historic grand opening of the Green Line last weekend, Minnesota took a major step forward toward better and more equitable access to public transportation – but we have a lot more work to do.
That’s why I’m holding an upcoming town hall meeting that will primarily focus on improving Minnesota’s transportation system. I’ll be joined by our Senator, Bobby Joe Champion, and Transportation Finance Committee Chair Frank Hornstein. We will gather with neighbors on Tuesday, June 24 at 5:00pm at the Bryn Mawr Elementary School cafeteria (located at 252 Upton Avenue South).
This is an important opportunity for you to ask questions, provide feedback and discuss as a community how we will move forward with building better roads, bridges, highways and public transportation. With any questions, please give me a call at (651) 296-8659 or email me at rep.raymond.dehn@house.mn.
Sincerely,
Raymond Dehn
