INC NEWS - INC priority list 6-26-07

[TheOcean1 at aol.com]

Near the bottom of the list is "illegally posted  signs", which garnered zero 
votes this year.
I think it's important to note that this was one of the top concerns a few  
years ago.
 
INC should focus on the top concerns, but also note when progress has been  
made.
A couple years ago, "parking on yards" was number one. That issue is now in  
the middle of the pack.
 
Last year, "unchaining dogs" was the number one concern, this year it has  
moved to number two.
When that issue makes the bottom of the list with zero votes, I think it's  
safe to say (with applause)
PROBLEM SOLVED!
 
None of these issues are simple, and none are solved by INC alone. But  
together, we should enjoy our successes when top rated concerns of years gone  by, 
register zero concern today.
