We are <br />living in a world that includes military and diplomatic confrontation in the <br />mid-east, ethnic atrocities in eastern Europe where many of our families <br />have sisters and brothers, aunts and uncles, cousins and friends struggling <br />for life and freedom. We have sons and daughters on a humanitarian <br />mission in Somalia. We are living in a world meeting the challenge of <br />rebuilding societies that have survived communist domination despite all <br />odds. What an inspiring, yet humbling era, this should be for those of us <br />, enjoying the relative peace and affluence of the United States of America. <br /> <br />Our national context has changed dramatically in this past few months. <br />We have seen the election and inauguration of a new President. He will be <br />working with a new generation of senators and representatives elected with <br />a fundamental mission that can be summarized in one message -- <br />changel Change nowl Change the way government operates so that our <br />children and grandChildren can enjoy the fruits of our democracy. Voter <br />confidence, once shaken, now seems to be rebounding. Once again <br />problems of people in cities are coming into focus. <br /> <br />Council Minutes <br /> <br />Soecial Order of <br />Busin~~~ <br /> <br />State of the City <br />Address <br />
