I have always said it takes a village to make a small town create a positive and creative environment.
What happens when your small town starts growing in a pandemic? The life changing events in the economy and the way our work environments have had to shift dealing with the decision to close or adapt.
I think the we would all agree that our community Leaders need to be more transparent about how and where they communicate information. What’s the point of creating a community app, if you drop old data in a few icons on an app. It sends the message you either don’t care or it’s not important to you. Either way, you have lost your communities trust and possible vote on your ability for your position.
Go where the community communicates and ask questions, like Facebook, Instagram or your city community board.
Don’t make your community search for information. While your at it make sure all contact information is correct. That let’s your community know your engaged and involved with your voice, ideas, your needs are important to the growth of your small town.
As for the community we need to help come up with problems solving and doable creativity. Here are ten items we can do that will also make our community, beautiful, creative, friendly and involved, little things that make a big change.
