The meeting was conducted via conference bridge to adhere to the \u2018social distancing\u2019 requirements of this pandemic period.\r\nA quick recap:\r\n - The first of several \u201clistening sessions\u201d was held on Weds, Sep 30.\r\n - While the meeting was delayed in opening officially, there was a healthy interactive discussion among the non-Council Chamber folks while waiting. The conversation unfortunately did not continue when the meeting opened. \r\n - It is a known problem with \u201clistening sessions\u201d where those doing the listening tend to respond to ideas rather than absorbing and asking no more than clarification questions like: please elaborate, what could work, what could be done\u2026 and that happened here too. \r\n\r\nThe meeting runs just about 88 minutes, so let\u2019s listen to the EDC \u2018listening session\u2019 of Sep 30, 2020\r\n\r\n-----------\r\n\r\nThe agenda doc, including connection info\r\nhttps://www.franklinma.gov/sites/g/files/vyhlif591/f/agendas/2020-09-30_edc_listening_session_1_agenda.pdf\r\n \r\nListening Session schedule\r\nhttps://www.franklinma.gov/sites/g/files/vyhlif591/f/uploads/business_listening_flyer_-_final_2_1_1.pdf \r\n \r\nMy notes taken via Twitter during the meeting are summarized here\r\nhttps://www.franklinmatters.org/2020/10/economic-development-subcommittee.html \r\n \r\nPhotos used in the Twitter thread can be found in the Google photo album\r\nhttps://photos.app.goo.gl/DKJbMzaqHNqfLs5KA \r\n\r\n--------------\r\nWe are now producing this in collaboration with Franklin.TV and Franklin Public Radio (wfpr.fm) or 102.9 on the Franklin area radio dial. \r\n\r\nThis podcast is my public service effort for Franklin but we can't do it alone.
