[NENA] Mailing list and communications

[Paul Grunwald]

Dear NENA Members and Board,

 

We have had more traffic on this mailing list in the last few days than in
the last year.  That is what the list is for - thank you all for your
thoughts and time.    We are investigating adding a discussion forum to the
website to take discussions offline but it will take a few more days to
implement that feature.  If the email traffic from the mailing list is
unwanted, you have a couple of options.  Option 1 - set the mailing
subscription to digest mode.  In digest mode you will get one email a day
with all the messages.  Option 2 is to unsubscribe.  

 

Both options for your subscription can be set here:
http://noreste.org/mailman/listinfo/members_noreste.org

There is a button at the bottom of the page labeled "Unsubscribe or Edit
Options" where you can manage your subscription.

 

---------

I have one other thought about the recent discussion.    We have 1800 homes
in the area bounded by NENA.  There are 119 subscriptions to this list.
There are even fewer paid members today.  That said,   NENA is a legal
entity as recognized by the city with binding bylaws & charter as well as a
being 501 C3 organization for tax purposes.   

 

Just because people choose not to participate or join does not invalidate
the legitimacy of the organization in just the same way as someone choosing
not to vote does not invalidate the legitimacy of an election.  NENA does
speak for this area and is actually the largest and most influential
neighborhood association in the city.  NENA has done more to control and
manage development in this area than any other organization in the city.
Ask some of the developers and cell phone companies that have tangled with
us.

 

If you do not like the position that NENA is taking or may take, get
involved, get your neighbors involved and participate in the organization
and issues.  Everyone who has been involved in NENA has had a single goal -
the quality of life for this entire neighborhood.   As a group, we can
direct and guide how this area develops in real and practical ways for the
betterment of all.  Please continue to participate!

 

Best regards,

 

Paul Grunwald
