John Martin explained three says to act on our priorities:
·
Legislative – Something to ask City Council, the
Board of County Commissioners, some agency, etc.
·
Informational – Something worth having
presentations to INC on
·
Committee work – Something we need to form a
committee to study
It was noted that we already have internal commitments to do
a Candidate Forum in the fall and some kind of multi-neighborhood party.
The priorities (and votes) are as follow. I did some ordering of items to try to keep similar things together. Votes >5 are in red.
