3/ <br />We have a great deal more information we want to share with <br />you at the Council meeting Monday. <br />Let it also be known that over one week ago I called <br />Dan Hessberg who I known personally and offered to accompany <br />him or his advocates any time day or night to call on <br />Battered Women in need of shelter or help. I personally <br />know of at least one local couple here in Orono who would <br />open their home to any battered woman who needed shelter <br />as long as they reside in the Lake Minnetonka area. <br />The truth is that people from our area do not use these <br />shelters. They stay with concerned relatives or friends. <br />The people using these shelters by and large are welfare <br />recipients. Mr. Hessberg said he would be glad to have me <br />along but has not made any effort to call me. <br />It is our deepest concern as a con-munity that the Mem.bers and <br />the Orono City Council will strongly object to this location <br />for this Domestic Violence Shelter. <br />Sincerely/ <br />Mr. Clair T. Rood (date) <br />Mrs. Lynn D. Rood (date)
