[Green] CITF Revised Application - Invitation to edit

[Annie Warmke]

I plan to look at the proposal later today or in the morning early.  We 
could put something in the paper about the project and invite people to 
use the unit with a ribbon cutting...ask the mayor to be the first one 
to charge his phone, tablet or laptop. We could also have a solar light 
that only turns on when movement activates it so we won't need 
electricity for that.  I have a solar spotlight at the barn that works 
well and has been doing the job for three years without a new battery.  
The unit was only about $50.  We could also have a solar light rope  
which provides a small amount of light but makes it easy to see when 
approaching the unit (for security reasons perhaps or just to activate 
the solar light.  We'll need signage for how it all works, and maybe ask 
people to make tally marks on a board when they re-charge something.  
This could be a way to engage people.

I wrote earlier about asking Third Sun to support the project and Blue 
Rock Station will definitely support it financially and with technical 
assistance.  I know the Sierra Club had offered some financial support.
