Hope to see you there-"

"I'll pass the word, Donna; including to the three City Council Members who strongly supported changing the ordinances governing backyard chicken raising in Chandler. As I mentioned, the 19th is my b-day, and I have other plans! I look forward to…"
"Hey, David. Renu here. We used to cross paths years ago while I worked at Gila Crossing Community School. I saw you listed as a "maybe" for Jean's olive class. I thought, "I wonder if that is the David Van Druff I know?!" It is! You are! Maybe I'll…"

Thanks!

City Council is voting on the legalizing of backyard chicken raising in Chandler TONIGHT! We narrowly made it through the Planning and Zoning Commission, and I hear on all fronts that people PRESENT and SUPPORTING this could sway the vote! Come on…

"It is an antiquated law that is (maybe, hopefully) at least changing at a glacial pace. They Council at a point had no intention of changing the law, but that seems to have changed from what I have seen/heard.

"I was so disappointed when I read this article in the paper (yes, I still get the old fashioned paper!), mostly because the council has said it is basically a formality and they have no intentions of actually making a decision during the next…"
"No significant update, unfortunately, but here is an article that appeared online and in print in the AZ Republic the other day. I hear it got picked up by a couple non-local syndicates! Crazy.

Hi Renu,
Thank you for remembering me. things have changed @ GCCS since you were there. Tim left for greener pastures and a fellow gardener Ed Mendoza who came into your position is now the new garden coordinator.
I am still @ Ira Hayes High School in the garden coordinator role. I was hoping to attend last Saturdays class, but something came up and that moved the class out of my reach. I haven't been able to volunteer or attend classes as much as in years past, but since you are the new PDC coordinator I/m sure I will run into you at an upcoming event. I am hoping to catch the Mesquite milling event this time around....any idea if a date has been set?
Be Well,
david
That would be awesome! I love fermenting and I'll look forward to discussing it with you. I'll bring some to the potluck for sampling.
It was so nice to hear of everything that you're doing for the VPA! It's much appreciated!
My husband was in a car accident last week and things are really crazy around here. Since I am doing his chores + mine + everything else.... I really would hope you can wait a week before coming out. Please email me at minidairy@hotmail.com , I will get back to you when I know I will be home and not running for him.... SOrry.
Thank you. I am looking around, collecting scrap lumber. I love your tree picture.
BTW I have several friends in Chandler and could organize letters, council visits or other needed activites. I have worked for the City of Chandler for 14 years. There are some rules about my own advocacy as an employee but I can work through my surrogate (my better half Shannon). I have found it is all about citizens pressuring council to make things happen. Of course keeping the staff infomed and included is critical too.
Yes, we want to help. My friend recommended inviting Chandler City Council to attend the Tour de Coop to build awareness. We live in North Chandler, just relocated from Tempe. Anything we can do, we will.
Renu,
How'd it go? Can't wait to hear about it....will you be at the next TdC to share the info?
Kat
Seriously, thanks for sharing this...its exactly what I've been looking for in terms of volunteer and community type involvement. Looking forward to learning more.
