Civic Association Election Results and Meeting Follow-up

Thanks to everyone who has committed so far to be a Cottage Grove Civic Association member! We're thrilled to report we now have 68 voting member households and 18 non-voting members, for a total of 86 members! 3 of those voting "households" are actually businesses - big shout out to Angela Patino, CitizensTruck, and Vida Family Medicine for their support.

Elections were held yesterday evening, and votes have been counted and audited. Here are your 2021 Civic Association leaders!

• President: Ian Fortney

• Vice President: Drew Wiley

• Secretary: Katie Niemann

• Treasurer: Rob Burke

Next, we'll be creating committees and appointing committee chairs. Stay tuned for more info!

Tonight (March 4), Civic Association leadership will be attending a special meeting called by Super Neighborhood 22 to discuss the I-10 Inner Katy Corridor project that will significantly impact Cottage Grove. We will update everyone as soon as we can!

Important links from the meeting:

• Review the I-10 Inner Katy Corridor Project virtual meeting room so you can understand what's happening (for a much more straightforward explanation, see the slide deck below from our meeting)

• Send TxDOT your thoughts on the I-10 Inner Katy Corridor Project by March 31 to this email: HOU-PIOWebMail@txdot.gov

• Add your ideas to the Winter Storm Lessons Learned document so we can do an even better job of helping each other next time

The meeting recording will be available soon, and we'll post it here when it is. In the meantime, please check out the slide deck:
