Note from Elisabeth Jewel about this evening's Stakeholders' Meeting

As a followup to the agenda for tonight's Stakeholders' meeting, Safeway's PR representative Elisabeth Jewel sent the following in an email on Nov. 11th:

"There has been a change in the purpose of our meeting Wednesday night. There is no formal presentation or architectural plan at this point – the community architects have met twice and are meeting with Safeway’s architect tomorrow – so it’s too soon to present any formal ideas. The purpose of the meeting tomorrow is to have the key themes presented and have the community be able to dialogue with Safeway’s architect regarding a sampling of ideas. We are hoping that the meeting in December will be more formal with the community architects and Safeway’s architect presenting plans together."
