Random Notes
As noted in Rise and Sprawl, Apple is opening a store in Polo Park in October.
Curious to see what is moving out.
Sephora moved into Tommy Hilfger's location since they have a big store already on Kenaston.
This will help Polo Park hold onto its position as a destination mall.
Too bad their food court is still the pits.

The election in River Heights is today. I think that John Orlikow would be the better councillor and last check, I heard he was elected. My feeling is Currier would have been too much in the vein of Katz who goes by the seat of his pants and doesn't really have a plan.
As far as trustee goes, there are a few there that might have been interesting. I don't know who would be the best. I think that is why former trustee Rita Hildahl was elected again. Name recognition and experience helped.
