Buckeye Citizens share their opinions
First we want to thank all who participated in the first three of many upcoming surveys to be hosted by CFABB. Over the last three weeks we had 183 residents take part in three surveys. We are very excited by the response and anticipate the participation to continue to grow over time. We would also like to thank the 16 individuals who have volunteered to assist us with the upcoming elections and community meetings which will be announced very soon. As a result of the many requests to share the results of these surveys, we have decided to make them available to the public via this blog and on our new website which will soon be launched. To view the survey results for the first week please CLICK HERE.
We will make results for the other two surveys available over the next few days. We will continue to host all results of future surveys on our new website once it is available.
Over the past three weeks multiple volunteers of CFABB have attended the "We are Buckeye" town meetings for districts 1, 2 and 4 to observe and understanding what they are all about. Though local media has reported attendance was good we saw something completely different. The first meeting for "District 2" was reported to have over forty residents in attendance. I guess this could be considered true if you count town management, appointed officials and media as part of the audience. This case has also been noted at all the meetings so far. The actual attendance in all three meetings consisted of the following.
District 2: 18 Residents
District 1: 8 Residents
District 4: 59 Festival Ranch Resident / Tartesso
The volunteers for this group are dedicated and we believe they really want to do something good for Buckeye. We feel the problem is they are misguided and mismanaged. As a result they are not collecting true input from the residents. We support their ideas and intent, we just feel they are not going about it in the right fashion. A five year strategic plan should be something that creates a road map for growth, community diversity, commercial development and many other ares to make our town whole as well as self supporting.
This being the case, why the rush?
It is the intent of CFABB to be a recognized as an organization consisting of residents from all over Buckeye which would be comprised of businesses, H.O.A's, schools, residents and so on. We would like to help develop better communications to the town through developing subcommittees who communicate directly the various agencies in town i.e. Mayor, Council members, town management, social services, fire and police. Through this direct communication issues, concerns and needs could be dealt with quicker as well as present other unknown concerns that in turn could be better dealt with through future planning.
We are hopeful that many will see we have presented valid concerns. We are hopeful that we will be able to work side by side with other organizations like We are Buckeye and the town. We will continue to work with all residents both new and old. Lastly...we will never lose site of our primary mission "Citizens for a better Buckeye"
As always if you would like to get involved or have any questions, comments or concerns please direct them to us via email at CFABB.main@gmail.com.
