Hello all,
The Steering Committee has been working on the following draft Mission & Vision statements for approval at the Oct 15 meeting. We'll next turn our attention to incorporation, formalizing our governance structure, and Goals & Objectives for the upcoming year.
Please review these statements and consider what parts of them you do (and don't!) identify with, and why. We're planning on a basic up/down vote of SWS members present at the meeting to adopt these statements as our working Mission & Vision Statements (with the understanding that they're open to further tweaking in the coming year as we grow our organization).
Thanks everyone!

I would sure like to see the mission and vision capture more of the spirit in West Seattle--this is a happy, fairly harmonious community with walkers and bikers and runners and hikers, families and gardens and real neighborhoods and neighbors.
I've lived all over Seattle and finally settled here a decade ago because it's the nicest place in the region.
I love the concept of Sustainable West Seattle and will bookmark the site and participate as I can. Thanks!
I like what seacat said... howabout -
