<html><head></head><body>HI all, <br><br>some time ago I was asked to put my thoughts together for what a flyer might be - here is the outline I prepared for that, please have a look. <br>Advice on your flier - should not contain ANY legalese - should be plain English, good urgent energy: we have a problem (decisions about our water and community are being made by others) and a solution (Community Rights ordinance puts us in charge and bans fracking)! If you like the outline I have attached (not necessarily the art that was just a placeholder), I am happy to fill it in with the ideas/content. All areas of the flyer should lead back to/reinforce why community rights, and be maybe punchier in tone. <br><br>Also: <br>You need a way for people to get involved besides facebook - not everyone uses facebook do you have a website? And do you have an ask for folks Read the ordinance here, Sign the petition, get involved, volunteer, join us in asserting our right to decide!!! ;-) <br><br>also, you might want to use this video link which speaks specifically to community rights and fracking: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VP0O6jIESHc<br><br><br><br>I'm happy to work on this today but I need someone to say that is wanted - I don't know the process for this project, who is bottomlining the content, etc. is this the media team? PLease someone send me a direct message or call and I can't always keep up on this thread. <br><br>Best, Shannon <br><br>Shannon Biggs

<br>A single-issue ordinances with "Ecosystems rights" as the single issue would be the time to emphasize this since the right of the ecosystem in our ordinance pertains only to fracking damage.<br><br></div>My two cents,<br>
