Dear Quiet Train Supporters,
We want to urge everyone who lives in the 4th Ward to turn out and vote for Martha Norbeck.  There is a runoff since no single candidate finished with at least 50% of the vote.  The runoff is between Martha Norbeck and Karen Rubey.  As Martha herself points out, Karen Rubey would make a good City Council member, but we believe Martha is the best choice for those who support the quiet zone. 
 
If you cannot vote on Tues. Dec. 4th, go to the Courthouse Monday and cast your ballot.  This election will be all about turnout.  If you live in the 4th Ward, or have friends or family who do, be sure and get out and vote.  Although the quiet zone has already been approved, we have to plan in case we have to go back before the City Council for some sort of  change in the plan for the quiet zone.  If this happens, we need Martha Norbeck representing the 4th Ward. 
 
REMEMBER, NOW THAT THE QUIET ZONE IS APPROVED, ITS ALL ABOUT MONEY.  THROUGH OUR TROPICAL RAFFLE AND OTHER FUND RAISING, WE HAVE TO COME UP WITH A LOT OF MONEY, CLOSE TO $100,000.  BUY YOUR TICKETS BY SENDING A CHECK TO PO BOX 2302, STOPPING AT REVS, THYMELY SOLUTIONS, OR SMALL PLANET RESTAURANT AND BAKERY, OR BY CALLING 1-800-507-1882 TO PAY BY CREDIT CARD.  OUR MOTTO REGARDING THE RAFFLE IS BUY EARLY, AND BUY OFTEN!  THE FINAL DRAWING WILL BE HELD ON SAT. MARCH 1ST OF 2008. 
 
Thanks for your support and DON'T FORGET TO VOTE IF YOU LIVE IN THE 4TH WARD!

Fairfield Receives Conditional Approval by City Council, with a 5 to 1 Vote for  “The Quiet Zone”!!!!

The City has agreed to contribute between $25,000 and $35,000 to our efforts. The amount depends on how much the City receives from the railroad for the closing of two crossings. These funds will help pay for initial improvements. The City will keep additional money for other worthy projects and future maintenance of the QZ. We need to raise about $90,000 to get started!!!

We need a lot of help selling raffle tickets and other fund raising efforts.  It sounds like a lot of money. However, if everyone will buy and or help sell just 5 tickets each we will have the Quiet Zone. We need to call our friends, family and neighbors. Everyone will have a great chance to win a trip to Hawaii or Cancun and one of 140 other great prizes.

 

Please forward this e-mail and email me if you can help or want to buy tickets

Thanks for all your help-Bill

Dear Quiet Zone Supporter,

We have had a great success so far with the launch of our Quiet Zone Tropical Raffle. We are offering trips to Hawaii and Cancun with 140 other great prizes. We are moving the City Council forward to coming to a final decision on a quiet zone.

We are sure they will approve a quiet zone for Fairfield subject to us raising the money. We are not sure if they will participate financially but will know more on this hopefully at the next City Council meeting.

Please find attached a flyer you can forward to friends and family to participate in the raffle. You don't need to be in Fairfield to use most of the great gifts we have. Please remember that each of us only need to buy or sell 4 tickets each, but that means everyone on our list if we are to be successful.

Thanks for Your continued support.
Bill
