Student – Provo City Alliance Featured in the Daily Herald
The Daily Herald featured an article on the Student – Provo City Alliance in their paper on July 29th.
Provo student organization seeks broader community support
“It’s not about the parking.
“Sure, the Student-Provo City Alliance originated in response to a parking program, and it’s most well-known for that, but its leaders want the community to know that they’re not going anywhere just because the immediate parking problem was resolved. Their goal is nothing short of making Provo a better place for everyone to live.
“‘One of the things that we see is that we have, with BYU, an untapped resource, a resource that will benefit long-term residents more than they realize,’ said Alliance President Andrew Walker.”
All Provo residents, students, and government officials are invited to attend our information session on Thursday, July 30, 2009 at 7:30 in the Council Chambers at 351 West Center Street, Provo.
The session will include presentations on the vision of the Alliance, the function and activities of the various committees, as well as information on upcoming events and how to get involved.
More information is available at our Facebook event.
At their meeting on July 21, 2009, The Provo City Municipal Council voted to postpone the implementation of the North Joaquin Parking Program until September 2011. Approximately 50 students turned out to support the postponement and several, including SPCA President Andrew Walker, spoke before the council. The SPCA would like to thank all of you who came to show your support and to show student involvement in the governing process.
Stay tuned for our upcoming events. We will be having an information session on Thursday, July 30, 2009 at 7:30 at the Council Chambers at 351 West Center Street, Provo. All are invited to attend and learn more about the Student – Provo City Alliance. More information is available at our Facebook event.
Please take time to thank the Municipal Council for listening to our concerns by emailing/calling the Provo City Council members individually or email them all at once via council1@provo.utah.gov.
