In an earlier post I complained about the lack of good coverage of the activities of the transition working groups in the press, so its only fair that I point out an example of the type of article I’d like to see more of. Yesterday’s Metrowest Daily News carried a column by Rick Holmes documenting the work of the Civic Engagement WG. He lists the three concepts the group is addressing, offers details of the discussion that took place last Tuesday in Milbury, and addresses some of the public misconceptions about the group’s goals. All in all, a very balanced article. I’m just disappointed to find out we’re not going to be running the government in January ;-).
Please share widely!
Rick Holmes is great: I’ve known him for 12 years, mostly as a neighbor through middle and high school, so get excited when I see his columns online đŸ™‚
