Betsy,

Does this mean the County beekeeping ordinance is turning out to be a good one?  What are the best features so far?
 
Thanks!

Brian: I want to thank you for including us in this process of drafting beekeeping regulations that will satisfy backyard beekeepers. The Dane County Beekeeping Association is a mix of many different levels of investment in beekeeping and by having the members we had yesterday, we will have accounted for the diverse interests and needs of urban/suburban and rural members. I wish it speedy approval.

Hello all, 
 
Based on my review of my notes from the previous meeting, I have taken a stab at revising the ordinance language to address the concerns we heard from the public.  I’ve attached a revised draft, based largely on the beekeeping standards in the City of Madison Zoning Ordinance, for your review.
 
Looking forward to meeting with you again tomorrow afternoon.  Thanks again for your valuable input.

Hello again, Brian.
Sorry for the slow response. I’ve been trying to coordinate with the others interested in meeting with you as well. It looks like next Fri afternoon (after 2pm) would work for everyone, if that works for you. If it does, just let us know a specific time and location and we’ll be there.
 
Thanks,
Paul Zelenski

Hi, Paul.
 
Are you and your colleagues available to meet this week or next?  I would be free Wednesday or Thursday of this week, or Tuesday 1/17, Thursday 1/19 or Friday 1/20.
 
Do any of those times work for you?
 
Thanks!

Hi, Paul
 
Right now, I'm wide open any time the week of January 9th.  I imagine you'll want to bring other people from your association to that meeting, so I'll let you pick the date and time that works best for you.  Let me know when works for you folks, and I can reserve a room here.
 
Happy holidays.

Hello,
Thanks for putting me on the list. I'll pass along the info to others.
Unfortunately, I am not available today or tomorrow, but have quite a bit of free time after you returned. So, I'm sure we can fine a good time. Is there a particular time that's works best for you?
 
Thanks,
Paul Zelenski
