I also sent the survey to green@fuusm and to fuusm-l, but those two, being distribution lists and not individuals, apparently filtered the survey, and it wasn’t delivered to EVERYONE. So, it went to a couple dozen people, including many Marietta City officials and department heads.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">To date, we have 11 responses. That includes me.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">If you would like to take the survey, or encourage others to do so, here’s the link:</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><a href="https://forms.gle/RxZGz11qesRNvRhK8" class="">https://forms.gle/RxZGz11qesRNvRhK8</a></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">We said we’d give until April 30 for responses, then close the survey, and send results to the same mailing list.

We were so pleased and thrilled with how the plans were going—it was a true team effort, and the forum was going to be thought-provoking, inspirational, and even motivational. So we’re not giving up. We’re postponing it until a few months after we get the all-clear from health officials. Obviously, we have no idea when that will be.<br class=""><br class="">But also, we’re working on something to keep our momentum going: a survey on sustainability, which we’ll send to everyone who expressed any interest or commitment to the forum. Maybe we’ll send it to FUUSM-L, too. So, stay tuned! This issue remains very much alive and on our minds.
