Ideas for Our City

One thing I have noticed is that some of the best ideas regarding controversial issues can be found in the comments sections of various blogs and forums. Part of the problems is that those ideas stay mired in comment sections along with those from trolls who cut and paste hateful thoughts to as many blogs that they can find. Most people skip past them and move to the next hot headline.

These great ideas will languish in cyberspace unless you give them a bigger forum.

There are many opportunities for public comment during City Hall proceedings. Why don't you bring those good ideas to someone that can do something about it? Put yourself and your ideas for positive change on the record. Just a thought.

Don't make me come down there, Michael! I've got some big ideas that scare too many of the council members. They tell me it can't be done and Dallas is too divided. Blah, blah, blah...

Actually, funny you'd post this. Because I have spoken at the Wed. council meetings in the past but I can't recall the foremat to sign up for the 3 minute window. I have something that needs to be diagramed for them, what it took to solve a problem and how it should be instead going forward. Not to talk this week or next but after that. Week of 7th or 14th.
