Dear Ms.DeMeo

I was interested to see your listing for Cohousing efforts.  Connecticut
does appear to have a dearth of such efforts.  Something isn't quite
right there.  

Who am I?  Well, I'm a landscape architect (un-licensed but with a
licensed firm), who has been following the cohousing movement since it
first started in the U.S.  While I am not living in the Hartford area,
and so may not become a future resident of your effort, I do believe
that there are ways in which I could assist you.  

First, let's discuss the marketing techniques that you have attempted
thus far.  

Second, let's look at the potential meetings that you will have.  As a
landscape architect, I have some experience with the public meeting
process and would be willing to help as I could for this.  Additionally,
I believe that your future group will want to hire the services of a
landscape architect at some point in time and having a landscape
architect involved in the process from the word "Go!" would assist the
whole product.  

So, if you're interested, let's see what we can do.

Kind regards

Nathan Imm
