Well, whoever is asked, or who self-selects, to put the Ordinance before Brooktrails or WCC—that person or committee should definitely ask me to go over the "package" with them. I'd be happy to help fine-tune it and flesh it out before they submit it. But I cannot take the lead on outreach at this time. 

I am busy creating a crowdfunding application for the Grange Farm School. I shall apprise all of you soon about this. This educational enterprise is quite unique, much need, and should be a feather in the Mendocino County's cap very soon. Start up is always a critical time.
