Two days after talking with Karen, Daniel received a packet of information from the mayor$$s office. The information included news clippings, minutes from community meetings, and the telephone numbers of major neighborhood figures involved in the dispute. Daniel studied the packet for several hours and then contacted Carl, who had been very vocal about not wanting the light rail extended into his neighborhood.

Carl told Daniel, $$I heard that you were getting involved in this situation, but frankly, I$$m not very hopeful. It seems clear cut: either we protect the neighborhood, or we have a light rail stop and all the muggers and panhandlers move in$.$

Daniel replied, $$I understand you feel pretty strongly that this is a win$-$lose situation. What I$$d like to do$,$ though, is get more information from everyone involved to see if it$$s possible for us all to sit down together and have a discussion. I$$ll share what I put together with you and everyone else so you can be sure it$$s accurate before committing to anything.$$

Carl agreed to talk with Daniel.
