Thank you again to those who came to our last meeting.  For those that couldn’t make it, I hope we can see you again soon.
 
Next month will be a bit different with Sunshine Week March 15th-21st.  Also, there is a New Chauncey Land Use Plan discussion on March 26th, 7PM at the West Lafayette Public Library.  If you want to experience what working with the APC is like, you should plan to attend.
 
If you know someone else who would like to sign-up for this information, please have them fill out this short form.
