NOTICE OF SPECIAL EVENT To Mayors/City Administrators: Last year, Canadian Pacific Railway's Holiday Train visited more than two dozen communities in the Midwest, helping food banks gather 12 tons of food and nearly $50,000 in cash. Many of you participated where we stopped or took time to view the lighted train as it passed through your communities. We are truly grateful for the civic support we received last year. We're coming back again the second week in December and hope you will help us again support this important cause. We've added some stops, will revisit many communities on our line and have altered times so last year's daytime viewers can see the train at night. New this year is live entertainment, performing from a stage car on the train or off the back platform. At our scheduled stops, country music artists Randall Prescott, Tracey Brown and Patricia Conroy along with two members of the Canadian teen pop music group "The Moffatts," will perform. Of course, Santa will join us again to greet the children. Because of its unique look — thousands of Christmas lights on the locomotive and trailing cars - it will likely generate heavy interest among residents and train enthusiasts as it did last year. ` The train will operate primarily after dark starting at 4:00 pm and ending each evening by midnight. We want you to be aware of the event should questions arise before the train moves through your community. We will be actively working with the media to publicize the events surrounding the train _ prior to its arrival. The enclosed posters include the scheduled stops where special events are planned to supporta local food shelf. The times shown are when the live performances will take place ... expect the train to arrive at least 15 minutes in advance of a performance. There is substantial support from these communities for the special train and we are hopeful it will help area food drive efforts. Neighbors of the CPR are more than welcome to visit at any of the stops. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact either of the individuals listed below.

We and our contractor consulted with the City of Plymouth so that we would be in compliance with codes and regulations and even put of a ".test" sign to assure good sight lines. There was no question as to where this sign would be placed.. Not ever receiving notification that there would be semaphores placed on the corner of Old Rockford Road and Vicksburg, we were not able to take that into consideration and the sign was put into place. After reading in the Plymouth newsletter that the installation of traffic lights on Vicksburg Lane and Old County Road 9 were eminent, we scheduled and met with several staff members regarding our concerns. Planner Rebecca Stoen, Assistant City Engineer John Hagen, and Water Resources Engineer Shane Missaghi were present at the meeting. At that time we expressed concerns with the process of non -inclusions in the sighting process and in fact our greater concern with the placement,of the equipment controlling the lights. We were assured that the project be built -as designated which had the control boxes placed to the west of the, standards holding the lights. Once the semaphore project began, we took a wait and see position, assuming erroneously that consideration would be made in the placement of the electrical box and other equipment. The end result is obstruction to the sight line of the sign from at least one vantage point and we fear more difficult once, the landscaping around the project is completed. Our concern is not the placing of the semaphores themselves. We agree that there needs to be some traffic control both there and on 41St Avenue North. We are concerned that there was no notification as to your intent or consideration of the needs of the property owners that abut the right of way. Replacement of the sign will be a costly endeavor yet we are under restriction of the usage of banners, or wall signs as per city regulations. We would like to confer with you concerning the options that are available to us to eliminate this problem. Thank you for your -attention to this matter and for your prompt reply.
