Congratulations, Jim! The committee voted unanimously to cancel the scheduled meeting for 9/20/2011 and replace it with a meeting at the Community Conversation on 9/27. Discussion of the League of Women Voters Community Conversation on 9127. Defining a community center would be easier if we had a blank sheet of paper, but we don't have that. We have a lot of places already serving populations. The community conversation will be good to tell us what we've been missing. What do we want to say? Possibilities are: Introduce the charge of the Task Force. We want to say that we have an increasing list of needs that are unmet and sometimes unspoken. Be upfront about our work and task, define it to the community. So we don't know if the CC is a building or an administrative center, but we know that there are unmet needs and we are trying to define those. Can we say we are looking for people to help us define the needs and we'd love them to make themselves known to us? Remember that this is not OUR event, we are there as participants! Going forward We can use the website more effectively during this process. We can say `Further info as this project unfolds can be found (the website address) ` Discussion of how to get people to talk to us: what about holding open houses, come and tell us what you want?
