Big turnout at the North Omaha Commercial Club meeting in Florence tonight. Discussing alternatives to reduce speeding and heavy truck traffic on north 30th St.
I’ve been an advocate for 4 lanes down to 3 ever since we did the Florence business district renovation. Public meeting 6:30 pm tomorrow. What is a 'road diet'? North 30th Street alternatives range from no change to bridge over Missouri River https://omaha.com/news/state-and-regional/what-is-a-road-diet-north-30th-street-alternatives-range-from-no-change-to-bridge/article_2f32adac-9c22-11ed-a056-2fd01ff63e1e.html

“State of North Omaha” annual meeting this morning. Black poverty rates down substantially since we started. One data point not trending positive is black home ownership - reinforcing the need for affordable housing throughout the city.

The sled track is running fast at Memorial Park today! Nice to see the kids out enjoying the snow.
Always fun playing a little rock and roll in Benson.
Going on shortly with these guys. Reverb in #Benson where we played our first show many years ago.
A shout out to the city public works employees working 12 hour shifts plowing snow and keeping the roads clear and safe.
#Benson snow plow operation looking pretty good so far.
