[Durham INC] FW: Transportation Survey

[Pat Carstensen]

This took me a little more than the 5 minutes promised.  
I am disappointed that it doesn't let us say what we DON"T need (more like Alston Ave., for example)
I admit I'm a little skeptical of the value of the results of broadcasting an opportunity to respond to a survey like this.  At best, we will have competition among different interests to load up high priorities by their side, and at worst some randomness.  Do I really have an opinion on the importance of wetlands vs air quality?  
Where I see a valuable contribution by INC and neighborhood organizations is getting small groups together to talk about the questions, and then submit their consensus.  
Regards, pat

The regional planning organization (DCHC MPO) has created a transportation survey for our Long-Range Transportation Plan.  We understand that you may be a member of a Durham Neighborhood Association, and would appreciate you forwarding this survey link onto your neighborhood’s list-serv, to give citizens the opportunity to give input in the transportation planning process.  We look forward to your input.  Thank you for your help! https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/DCHCMPOSurvey1  Jaclyn E.
