		Jeannie 
		Xamis, owner of Serendipity Stitches on Lincoln's downtown square, checks 
		out an architectural rendering of an updated courthouse lawn at Tuesday 
		night's public meeting of the Downtown Revitalization Steering Committee.  
		The meeting in the Pegram Room at the Lincoln Public Library was a 
		chance for the general public to see what the committee has accomplished 
		so far and to hear from Ian Colgan, an urban planner who is working with 
		the committee to create a working plan for the future of the downtown 
		district.  LDN will have a full report on the Tuesday night meeting 
		in our Thursday edition.
