Overriding Goal: What are good ideas to generate local interest in the LP, momentum and revenue?
1. Three of us attended the June 27, 2011 MUTA meeting and discussed putting together a collaborative newsletter. Discussed possibly combining resources and putting on an event. Learned a lot about the SMART initiative and discussed ways to repeal it (see this link: https://www.facebook.com/StopSmart )
2. We went live with new logo on FB site and twitter.
3. Joel Smolen video is uploaded at http://www.youtube.com/user/MarinLibParty and we are working on others ones featuring Jeff Katz and MLP Secretary Joe Salama, former candidate for Marin Health Care Board.
4. Continuing to work on survey to MLP email distribution list to determine what would get them out to events. Paul is working on this and Joe will help with formatting and distribution.
5. Joe is developing the FreeBook webpage
6. Paul is researching in preparation for an article on the Ross Valley Sanitation Tax. We discussed the idea of regular electronic newsletters and Joe agreed to format it once Paul and Pete create some content.
7. Board is reviewing TSA survey to gain a consensus on a proposed communication to state senators, (like Rep. Woolsey) and any state legislature members to pressure them to get some type of restrictive measures on TSA violations of our constitutional rights, similar to actions being taken in other states.
8. Board members will compete to make a custom cartoon video for publishing to the rest of the party, and will show them off at the next meeting.
