IMPORTANT!
The
vote on needle exchange WILL happen this Monday,
July 18th at 7pm @ City Hall.
Contrary
to the last
scheduled vote that never occurred, this one IS
on the city council's agenda for Monday. The speakout
starts at 6:30. This is where people who have previously
put their names on the list can speak to the city
council. If you are coming and want to speak let us
know as soon as possible. The actual city council
meeting starts at 7pm.
Directions
to the Council meeting can be found here.
Historically,
the NEX vote usually happens at the end of the night
so most of the people and media are gone when it actually
goes down. The city council likes it this way for
obvious reasons. So, if you plan to come, plan to
stay until 9:30 or 10pm.
Whether
you can make it or not, here's what folks can do:
- Call
the City Council members who are opposed to a NEX
program. The main number of the Council is 413-787-6170.
But you can also call them at home as well (#s listed
below). Be rigorous and forthright. Their heads
are made out of straw.
