How can we accommodate the views and desires of new people who move into the community?
A. A Green Community will likely attract people and businesses that support the vision of the community that has been established, however newcomers are often likely to want to change some things. They may like a rural environment, but they don’t want to hear tractors at midnight or smell cow manure. Sometimes they want to spend money the community may not have targeted for fancy playgrounds and new schools. New residents, like the present ones, should be encouraged to participate in the Green Communities efforts and to run for positions in local government and the school board.
