>Howdy Concerned Citizens!

>Update on Proposed Change in Fiscal Agent
>Yesterday I met with the Ecology Action Center
>Board in Normal to discuss the request to transfer
>our IPCUTSOT funds from ISEN, our current
>fiscal agent, to the EAC.  The board members had
>legal questions, which I was able to answer due to
>an email letter sent to me by our attorney, John
>MacMahon (thank you, John).  The board is still
>waiting to hear from their attorney, Todd Bugg,
>who had been contacted about this matter in July.
>Thus, the matter was tabled until the next meeting,
>which is scheduled for September 15.  I have been
>nominated to the board and will serve as IPCUTSTOT's
>liaison to EAC should the board agree with our request.

>Tree-trimming to Increase in Normal in September
>Reliable sources indicated that IP has resumed trimming
>in Normal after a long self-imposed moratorium.  The
>trimming is under the supervision of Normal and by
>their guidelines set out in the tree-trimming ordinance.
>IP so far (to our knowledge) followed the HB 1776 guidelines
>of notifying customers with letters and hangtags.  Both the
>town and IP have heard from property owners who want
>to be present when their trees are trimmed.  Stay tuned
>for how IP handles this, as in the past the wishes of
>property owners frequently have been neglected by the crews.
>
>Still Waiting for the Tariff
>As summer begins to fade into autumn, we are still waiting
>for the new tariff.
>
>New Email Address!!
>Please note that effective immediately the new email address
>for IPCUTSOT is gknapp at mtco.com.  Please update your
>address book.  Thanks!
