12:36:20	 From  Barney Heath : - [1] Which of the Zoning Redesign goals feel most important to you? And why? (Remember, we’re planning for the next 50 years and beyond!)
For context, here are the 3 goals that the Zoning & Planning Committee straw-voted in:
(a) Housing: A zoning code more responsive to a demand for housing that serves a range of incomes and promotes sustainable community development patterns
(b) Sustainability: Environmental stewardship, fiscal strength and meeting community needs
(c) Context: Preserve and protect what we like in our neighborhoods. Encourage new development to fit in the context of our neighborhoods and villages
12:46:24	 From  Barney Heath : - Prompt 2:
- [2] What do you hope that Zoning Redesign accomplishes?
- Prompt 3:
- [3] What concerns you about Zoning Redesign?
