Summary

The May 2012 Beaver Beacon reports that NRESC received input from 121 year-round residents through March focus groups, followed by public forums and meetings with island groups and schools.

Evidence limits

The record preserves the newspaper’s summary of the MSU-facilitated process; it does not substitute for the underlying report or interview transcripts.

Sources

  1. NRESC linked the MSU facilitators' report on two June focus groups and three interviews and invited visitors and summer residents to August sessions. The forum post documents release of the committee's source material and the next planned outreach, not the underlying transcript contents or an independent attendance audit.

  2. Beaver Beacon, May 2012, "NRESC: Community Input."
    Reports focus-group interviews with 121 year-round residents, community forums, and meetings with island organizations, students, senior citizens, and visitors to the planning process. No public copy of this file is known; the archive holds one and can provide it on request.
