Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Shared Vehicles in Cohos

[Patricia Kipping (kipper]

Halifax Green Cohousing Initiative is a seedling group in Halifax, Nova 
Scotia just beginning the process of building a group and finding land 
in the urban core of the city.  One of our goals is to share some 
vehicles.    There is a well developed system of car share operations 
in Canada and in the USA.  If you google "car share" you well get many 
leads.

I'm very interested in following this thread of messages
Good luck.
