[Forum] Re: NA City Council Meetings

[Kurt Kolok]

I believe this forum is a great opportunity for us to utilize the energy 
and enthusiasm we all bring to the community.  I'd like to suggest that 
we use this mail list to concentrate on the issues we feel need to be 
addressed and productive ways in which we can improve the quality of 
life here, rather than, as some may see it, an unproductive platform for 
simply venting frustrations.  Brian makes a very good point that cleared 
sidewalks are key to the daily life of many people in N. Adams, and 
making N. Adams a more walkable city will only encourage businesses and 
neighborhoods to thrive.  Maybe we could gauge interest from those on 
this list for identifying a liaison from the forum to create dialogue 
with the Mayor's office in order to communicate some of the needs being 
raised through these online discussions.  Thoughts?
