  2. Special guest, Adolfo Majano, from the city of NV to discuss West Keith Road/13th Street plans
    • Adolfo said he appreciated our input that he had received through our HUB letter
    • He displayed on the digitally and briefed us all on the rational for each of the options for the two sections Jones to Mahon and Mahon to Chesterfield.
    • He even made up and displayed drawings that incorporated our suggestions.
    • While he said he appreciated our suggestion he said they might be too expsnive to implement due to the addition space need on the north side and would required removing some parking on the south side.
