Industry Responds to Minnesota Suburb's Concrete Streets Debate

Last week in NewsLinks, NRMCA featured a story about the residents of a Minneapolis suburb who wanted concrete streets in their Minneapolis suburb and linked a Minneapolis StarTribune article which detailed the issue. Soon after the newspaper posted the story online and included it in a print edition, the executive director of the Portland Cement Association's North Central Region, Douglas W. Burns, wrote a letter to the editor. The newspaper promptly published it - click here to read his response.

To discuss the issue with Burns, you can e-mail him at dburns@cement.org or the NRMCA national resource director who covers Minnesota, Jon Hansen, at jhansen@nrmca.org.
