Hi, I want to set up a listserv discussion group for our town - Northfield, Massachusetts. Our population is about 3000 but I am looking at less than 200 subscribers the first year and probably a max of 400 for the next several years. I am computer savvy but do not have a server, etc. We have a number of people who want us to become a "transition town" and we have a new college in town - the C.S. Lewis College - a Great Books and Performing Arts college - which will have a freshman class of approximately 100 entering in September 2012. This will have a big impact on the town and there is a move to be proactive and discuss a vision of how we want that to look and agree on a design for the town - that would probably require some changes in the zoning laws. We are a large rural town - spread out, but also with a pretty-well preserved historical village. There is a real need to start some conversations about our future and I have volunteered to research and moderate a discussion listserv - probably restricted to town residents and perhaps some members from neighboring towns - we are part of a 4-town regional school system. Can you help? Please let me know if I can provide further information. Sam Richardson 64 Highland Avenue Northfield, MA 01360 413 498 5931
