Of all the ideas that I listed feedback is the most difficult to achieve.

So there has been an effort in the past. This is good. The meeting is a long way from my home my home, but a possibility for some.

I have no idea what the feedback loop is.

I believe that I filled out this and other surveys this year and last. I was specific, I offered to help. I offered my contact info should anyone have follow up questions. Unfortunately it does not feel like feed back if there is no response nor any change. A simple "we will consider it" would be great. Even a "no that isn't gonna happen" would be a start.


So to keep this moving: I have had two responses to my ideas but no responses stating other peoples ideas of what transparency looks like to them.
