This winter I proposed a somewhat similar on-line forum for Huron County and through the Huron Community Matters office, I've been informed that you will be down here May 30th and 31st. I'd very much like to meet you and talk with you during that time. I'd even attend your workshop if you would advise me of the times that would best facilitate the possibility of a conversation on the importance of an on-line approach to encouraging transparency in the process of having citizens identify aspects of their lives that are not yet economically, socially or environmentally sustainable---in order to effectively and transparently communicate to planners, politicians and people in municipal, provincial and federal leadership roles.

What's the easiest way to be alerted when new comments are posted?

I totally agree with posting the length of audio segments. It's something I have been doing on other projects. I'll go back and add running time to the existing audio! As far as info about how OS council actions affects fringe areas... I would also like to see this discussion evolve. I will see what I can do to help it along. If you or anyone else has thoughts or would like to help make the discussion evolve then feel free to contact me. Thanks for the feedback. I totally agree with posting the length of audio segments.

I'm new to the area and very interested in discussions about community like this. One suggestion on the format: When it's an audio piece, I'd love to know in advance how long the clip is so I can block time to listen. A request: My mailing address is Owen Sound, but I actually live in Georgian Bluffs (municipally speaking). I'd like to see info about issues that go beyond city limits, find out how Owen Sound council actions affect fringe areas. Thanks for this effort, Ryan!
