See Notes about What You Said at the Public Meetings
See the scribe's notes from the large newsprint tablets where we recorded your comments at the Kick-Off and Drop-In Meetings in November. Also see the written comments that some of you provided individually in response our questions. (Remember those "question" sheets we also had available for you to use?)
Perspectives from the Woodmont Triangle Action Group from the Kick Off Meeting
The Woodmont Triangle Action Group (WTAG) decided to put together their own thoughts on Bethesda's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (known as a "SWOT" analysis), to contribute to discussions on the update of the plan. Take a look at their good work and if you would like to comment, scroll down to the end of the page. There is a box where you can write your comments - and where we can respond.
