On Monday, August 8th, Verdant Commissioners held the first of a series of meetings to set priorities for 2023-2026.  They reviewed results of the community health survey that the Verdant team launched and discussed the emerging themes from the responses of 473 residents.  They also learned about community needs and the changing demographic of our community over the last 10 years from more than 14 other studies and community health surveys.   On August 11th and 17th, the commissioners will meet again to plan the work of Verdant.  These special meetings are open to the public and residents are invited to attend.
