Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: letters of support

[Dave and Diane (daveanddee]

Hi Kim and fellow cohousers,
David raises a good point! It wasn't exactly a "letter of support" but 
more of a "voice in support" since he spoke in person at the zoning 
board meeting, but I suppose we could include it in this discussion. 
The former president of the neighborhood association spoke at the local 
zoning board meeting in support after we met with the neighbors for a 
facilitated discussion to discuss some of the issues they raised about 
our project. That might be an option to consider.
Good luck!
