<p>Additionally, the Friends of San Damiano recently proposed our conceptual recommendation for Phase I, including a decision on the future of the Frank Allis House, to the Monona City Council. City Council will vote on our recommendation on April 20th, after which we&#8217;ll be able to make exciting updates to our community. <a href="http://eml.networkforgood.com/ls/click?upn=u001.EKrofqOCCEktkLsfUgT5eGFPojb984GQT7EfvBkEHDE6Z-2FrIOz7zElt3jAAVpQo385j8Z-2FT8pttKuFmGqTp6NCqBYubpZn9oUaX2QZfkLHVAUnon1B1i6Re-2Flrm-2FZg3IiUQ5_JIh0d-2Bk79-2BveS7pTmXOxxqJQhriOPUEwazDTBFznBvNnhNA5lc9AQ5NX55VJasNlWx4ebabmUytPjDv3E4aCSqvDfIm7cjUqOuJcRcaRhz8L1g6r-2FkDjTD1kntv7eSjEzu9nxxFKFlACtPUdRIlqS-2FtXbmPk3K5ND3TjCUbIHUiWTwDEsHXrV7bxD5gLO39ZanTZDZwGQwxJBIq92f3IiQwTf70pw5ReAg49wjccqprDpccUEcryh6Hf3cV-2BGcTGpEqah9CQ80MrPrD4C3gDq28yeY4kg0duwToJ-2FRwgqhvLOupp0noye4Av810RjaCc0ZY8NUB7Mz7lDo0lvWpIE9J3SSXq6uds9wDyCyS1vkw-3D" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>You can watch the meeting here</strong>.</a>  </p>
