On Keowee, near Stanley, there is an empty lot between the old Wendy's and Victor's Taco Shop. It greatly detracts from the overall beauty of the area. I would like to propose that wildflower, milkweed, and other flowering seeds be planted so that the lot will provide color and beauty to that area of Keowee, as well as provide food for bees, butterflies, and other pollinating insects.
After the seeds are planted, no active management is required. Nature will take care of itself from there on.

There should be a group created on a social media platform for neighborhood and community leaders to share best practices, identify pain points, communicate, etc. This forum should be created on a site like Facebook that already a large number of users. It should also be a private group that requires a moderator or member to approve additional members, to keep the group focused on it's specific purpose. All community planning staff, select housing inspections and other relevant people from the city should be in the group as well. This group would help facilitate a tighter bond between neighborhoods regardless of location, socio-economic makeup,etc. This group would be a great next step from the Neighborhood President's Forum.

The presentation looks fantastic; I was very encouraged to see extensive case study use and progressive citizen focused design. However, it appeared to me that in the implementation, there was little regard for these proposed practises. For example, there were very little proposed implementation of bicycle facilities. If there is anybody who could offer specific insight into the plan to clarify some of these issues, it also seemed like there were mistakes in the awarding of project priority points, at least in my immediate neighborhood in West Dayton. Thanks!

As a city driven to being a healthy and green city. I suggest we expand the electric Trolleybus network to further reduce our Carbon Footprint produced by emissions from diesel buses.
