Last time I made this suggestion on this here website, I got some pushback. But I still think itâs a good suggestion, so here goesâŠ
If you have opinions about land use and planning issues here in Durham, whether itâs about a specific upcoming case or more generally, please email the Durham City Council at council@durhamnc.gov and share your criticism, praise, ideas and condemnations. It makes a difference!
Most council members are not active on Twitter, so they will not see the perspectives you share here. The easiest way to get your thoughts before the council is by emailing council@durhamnc.gov.
Also, if emailing the entire council isnât your thing, thatâs cool â feel free to DM me here to set up a one-on-one conversation with me via Twitter DMs, email, phone, Zoom, or in-person. If I need to bring planning staff along, Iâm happy to do that.
I look forward to hearing from you, even if itâs to tell me Iâm doing a horrible job. Thatâs one of the most important ways I can improve how Iâm doing.
Okay, thatâs it. Thatâs the thread. /end
Okay, thatâs it. Thatâs the thread. /end
PS â So apparently this thread came across as complaining about being asked questions on Twitter, and Iâm really sorry about that. Definitely not my intent, I promise. Iâll try to do better.
