Hello All
This morning there was an article about high levels
of lead at the Farmhouse playground. There was an email posting sent out
over the Summer about this also.
Here are links to 2 articles:
There have been several folks who have sent emails
to the list, and I decided to summarize and send one out with the 2 above
links.
The Highland Park Community Council is a community
organization, consisting of volunteers from the neighborhood. As the
Secretary of the HPCC, I have little knowledge of lead paint, and have little
time to take this issue on. But I can say that the HPCC will
support and assist with getting this issue resolved.
Rather than many folks trying to contact the Health
Dept, City Parks, etc, I think it would be better for someone to try and take
charge of this. I can direct any emails that come in to that person (or
persons).
This is an issue that was discovered at the
beginning of the Summer, and there has been little notification about it to
the community. If you are interested in working on this issue, send me an
email or give me a call. I will try to get all of the interested folks
together, and can provide some contact info for elected officials.
