Tell a Friend

A new feature has been added to the blog to help readers share information with other community members - TELL A FRIEND.
It is a tool that allows you to forward a blog post without leaving the site. TELL A FRIEND provides a number of options for email and social networks to forward blog posts, just choose the one you need. Click on the TELL A FRIEND icon, which can be found at the end of each post, and share ideas and information with your community members.

Subscribe - Automatic Updates

I have added a new feature! Now you can automatically receive updates from the blog.

In the left hand sidebar you see this icon under the heading Subscribe. By clicking on it you can have updates automatically sent to you – this is called an RSS feed.

First Phase Findings

A companion site ( www.cohdelayered.blogspot.com ) detailing the findings of the first phase of subdivision analysis has been set up. This outlines the general characteristics of “existing conditions”, in terms of how our subdivisions look and function. The intent is to provide information on this major component of the project in a cohesive way and facilitate discussion.

The information on the companion site is essentially the same as presented to the Planning Commission on April 22, 2008. Some changes have been made to suit the blog format. Also, unlike a typical blog this second site is meant to be read from top to bottom as a single report. (see video of presentation)

Community Ideas

In response to blog comments and the recent Planning Commission meeting, I am adding two features to keep track of the ideas people bring up; to help us ensure that we discuss them in the future.

1. Ideas & Concepts Flip Chart - for tracking ideas, questions and concepts about subdivisions and neighborhoods that you bring up.

2. "To Do" Flip Chart - for listing those things you come up with, that I/we need to take care of.
