[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The group doing the presentation has 255 members, so I'm not sure where this is going. [/quote] The presentation was introduced by, and is partially the initiative of, Andrew Friedson, Council President. The PowerPoint was made and presented by a Senior Housing Planner working for Montgomery County. No one is playing with facts or hyperbole, the presentation is right there to be reviewed. It consists of THEIR WORDS. However, one true thing is that the actual support for this is small…but if we don’t make it known, it might become too late to have meaningful input. [/quote] How do we provide meaningful input? [/quote] I personally think that the best thing to do is to share the information with friends and neighbors and get your community and neighborhood associations engaged. They can organize opinion pieces and editorials in local publications and organize with each other and work to retain legal representation to see what groundwork can be laid ahead of time. They should study the efforts in Arlington, Alexandra, and elsewhere to see what worked and what didn’t. Speak at public hearings and write testimony. Also, make sure that everyone is on the same page when it comes time to donate money to campaigns, sign petitions, and gather votes.[/quote]
