[Vision2020] Back to Basics

Jackie Woolf stated:

"This site is supposed to be about issues such as the water consumption,
the dog mess on the sidewalks (or how about the fact that so many dogs
are allowed to run free just because some owner doesn't want to take the
time to put a leach on and walk it?) or bike riders who use the WALKING
path for their own personal highway (knocking people over apparently gets
you points, 'cause enough of that is being done by a lot of bikers) or the
traffic lights not working in sinc or ....well you get the idea."

Yet http://vision2020.moscow.com/mission.asp states:

"Vision 2020 Mission Statement Adopted March 1995

   1. To ensure that all parts of our community have an opportunity to take
part in visualizing and planning for the community's future.

   2. To strengthen citizens' sense of community by promoting awareness,
ownership and investment in Moscow's future.

   3. To foster cooperation among (and public involvement with) the agencies
and organizations that plan for and make decisions about the future of
Moscow and Latah County.

   4. To raise awareness on the part of citizens and public officials that:

         1. uncontrolled and unplanned growth may have negative effects.

         2. short-term decisions have long-term consequences.

   5. To inform ourselves about growth and development issues.

   6. To have fun thinking critically and creatively.

Moscow Vision 2020 is an informal, multi-partisan group of Moscow residents
formed in 1993 to encourage more public information and debate about the
future of Moscow and Latah County."


Nope.  No mention of dogs there.

Take care,
