Creating a social networking forum for the entire Carson City community
(Editor's Note: The following was submitted to Carson Now by Carson City Supervisor Jim Shirk. Follow him on Twitter here and on his blog here. )
What I hope to accomplish is to help create a forum where you the citizen can convey your opinion to those who represent you. My focus is to build a network — much like our foundering fathers who built relationships when the only communication was one on one — I hope to accomplish this same level of one on one with the use of social networking.
Having a forum where you can convey your opinion to those who represent you is critical and we need to concede this — because without it — what needs to be accomplished will be all that more difficult to achieve.
I rather look through the windshield at the horizon than look at the rear view mirror and see what's behind me. Call me a optimistically newbie, nevertheless, in this new cyberspace technology I have made it easier for constituents to find me. If fair and equal representation is what you seek then you must convey your viewpoints. We are in the new era of how constituents can have a voice — I encourage you to do so — email me at ilovecarsoncity@gmail.com
Sincerely,
Jim Shirk
Carson City Board of Supervisor
