Path Forward
Owen Ambur
Shea, during the Town Council's virtual meeting today, Bill Miles displayed a slide listing the goals and individuals who have volunteered to lead the drafting of plans for reopening our economy in the wake of COVID-19. That information is now available in StratML format at https://stratml.us/drybridge/index.htm#HHIPF
The Connected & Collaborative Community Work Group's chapter
of the comprehensive plan contains some goals and objectives that
would be supportive of such efforts in the years ahead. However,
as with all other elements of the comp plan, it would be good to
reflect on and incorporate into our chapter lessons learned from
this experience.
In the Infrastructure chapter, for example, the definition of "essential
services" should be broadened beyond the traditional notion
of "public services" to include those required not only to
maintain the continuity of operations of the Town government
itself but also emergency services for others as well ... in a
"Truly Connected" community.
