Larry, how's your schedule looking for the week? Anything major going on?
Larry Boyd [9:39 a.m.]
Not really. I was planning to spend most of my time working on the Hanifan

Hilda Jacobsen [9:42 a.m.]
I was wondering if you would be free to join me in the city on Wednesday to
meet some representatives from Digitek. I'll be pitching a lobby renovation
idea to them. I really want their company as a client, so I think it would be
great if you were there for support. You could help direct the conversation
to my proposal's selling points just in case I forget something.
Larry Boyd [9:42 a.m.]
I hear you. What time on Wednesday is this meeting?
Hilda Jacobsen [9:43 a.m.]
It's at 10:30 a.m. We can take my car from here. I'll buy you lunch when
we're done.
Larry Boyd [9:44 a.m.]
It's a deal. I'll see you on Wednesday. We'll be coming back to the office,

I just got a message from a staff member in sales saying that salaries for her department have not been
deposited yet. They should have come in yesterday afternoon.
Jessica Jang 9:28
Has anyone else gotten similar complaints from other departments?
William Stuttgart 9:34
I just checked with production and they got theirs, but those in purchasing did not. Neither did the
employees in finance. Oh, and my salary hasn't come in either.
Jessica Jang 9:35
Nor mine. This is quite strange. I checked with research and development and they got theirs. I wonder
if Erin's heard anything.
Erin Hinkle 9:37
Sorry, I was on the phone just now. None of us in human resources has gotten paid, apparently. I
discovered this issue earlier this morning, and I just contacted Beacon Bank to find out the cause of the
problem. They promised a response in the next 10 minutes.
Erin Hinkle 9:44
So, the bank says they had some technical issues with a new payment software system that they recently
started using. They've resolved the problem now and those who haven't been paid yet should have their
funds within the next hour. Let me know what happens.
William Stuttgart 10:34
I just received notification from the bank that the funds have been sent.
Jessica Jang 10:35
Same here. Erin, could you contact the other departments to confirm that the problem's been solved?

OK. I can do that.

Report for City Council Executive SVIeeting, March 18

Options from the Planning Department

The Truman Expressway is now 50 years old and is no longer fit for use. The surface is
becoming less even, and the underside of the elevated road is crumbling, posing a potential
m
LD
hazard to the pedestrian areas and smaller roads that run beneath it. There are three main —I
options for how to handle these issues with the expressway.

The first is to invest money in the repair of damaged sections. This is the cheapest possible
option, as well as the quickest. However, some community activists have noted that people do pj
not like having to walk along the dark streets underneath the expressway to reach the
waterfront on the other side. The city has been trying to increase low visitation rates to the LU
waterfront area, and making road repairs only would not address this problem.
-!>
The second option is to rebuild the roadway underground. This would allow us to maintain the
same traffic capacity and provide more space aboveground for other structures or buildings. un
However, it would be extremely expensive and possibly disruptive.
en
The final option is to tear the expressway down and widen Elmview Road, which currently runs
beneath it. This could help to expand local retail, as shops at ground level would be able to tap
into a large customer base. However, Elmview Road would not be able to take all of the traffic
that currently runs on the expressway. Much of this traffic would try to bypass the city by taking CD
smaller roads to the north, probably through the community of Greenville. At the same time, the
residents of this community would most likely be against using their city as an alternative route OD
due to an increase in through traffic and noise on their roads.

162. What is NOT an option suggested in the 164. What is mentioned about Greenville
report? citizens?

(A) Rebuilding the road underground (A) They want more shops in the area.
(B) Moving the expressway farther north (B) They mostly drive to their workplaces.
(C) Repairing the damaged portions (C) They are unhappy with public
(D) Pulling down the elevated roadway transportation.
(D) They may oppose a detour plan.
163. What is suggested about the city's

(A) It has a highway running through the
middle of it.

(C) It has a low number of visitors.
