they actually were. But! am very proud to be a southside kid and | am with Alderman Gathright so there you
go.
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
OK.
Mayor Donchess
Well that’s a good idea, maybe we should do some research into what the old neighborhoods were. What
maybe the neighborhood names that have gone, into what they really were.
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
Right, there is a name | forget it, but | think | am going to back and look at my original deed and see what it
says because we literally had a name; when they built those homes back in ’85.
Mayor Donchess
Let’s check that out. Obviously we still have some neighborhoods that have very clear names, but some not
so much. Any other remarks by Aldermen. Yes, Alderwoman Klee.
Alderman Klee
Thank you well we do have French Hill here in Ward 3 and the north end. | just wanted to make an
announcement, the Toll Street Mission on May 22™ which is this Saturday will be doing ... they usually do a
block party but this time they are going to do “clean your block party” and | am hoping people will come out. As
they put on their flier, we will feed you food and drink. It is going to be catered by Sol Sisters. They are going
to have cotton candy, they are going to have music outside. It is going to start at 9:00 a.m. and they are just
doing basically what | have been doing; they are going to be doing Whitney Street, many of the side streets,
some of Canal, they are going to be doing some clean up. We are hoping that many people will come out and
help the neighbors in that area if they want even more work done they are willing to do front yard clean up,
even do flower boxes, hanging flower baskets. And they will continue that after on Saturday. So | hope to see
more people come out and if the rain does not hold out, they will be having a rain date of June 5". So thank
you.
Mayor Donchess
Alright, thank you. Anyone else, any Remarks by Aldermen? | don’t see anything. So | will call on
Alderwoman Klee.
