Hello Fleming Road Alliance Members and Supporters,
Many of you have been asking what you can do to help. Well here it is! Our County Board Members need to hear from us loud and clear that we do not want this project to destroy the beauty and country character of our road. We are hoping to get this petition out, signed and back in a very short time period by November 1st. Send to PO Box 1021, Woodstock, Il 60098 or email to flemingroadalliance@gmail.com
There are hundreds of you on this emailing list.
Together, we should be able to pull together at least 2000 signatures. Print as many copies of the petition as you wish. Go talk to your neighbors, friends, classmates, church groups, etc. anyone in the county who appreciates a peaceful drive on a country road lined with old Oak trees and spring daffodils and understands that making changes to Fleming Road is a wasteful misuse of our tax dollars. If you can’t walk the petition, sign the petition yourself and send it in. Every signature counts!
Once we have enough signatures, we will present the petition at a County Board Meeting. We will let you know when because we need you all to come to that meeting in a show of support and unity.
If you have received the summaries of the Community Advisory Group meetings you know that MCDOT has still not clearly identified the “problems” and is still talking “to” us rather than “with” us. We are continually reminded that we are “advisory’ and if we can’t reach consensus, MCDOT will “move things along”. Department head, Joe Korpalski will not return our phone calls. It’s time to stand up and take back control from these bureaucrats! Please help!

Where does the Fleming Road issue stand now and is there anything people from outside of Fleming Road can do to help?
