2020 20 in 20

       1. 2019 spreadsheet:  https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tV26iqvBIf8ayaii8tdU0ioI9MjXLmtBKfKwLOjV_dE/edit#gid=2079955786
       2. Location is a must. Dragana's app is perfect for this. 
       3. Photo of the location and problem are a must. Please send photos to colleenmacd@gmail.com for insertion in the spreadsheet. 
       4. Focus on relationship building and getting the ball rolling, rather than getting great big problems fixed. 
       5. Requests must meet the 20/20 criteria - small fixes that do not need a capital budget - things like cleaning up a trail, small repairs like a broken bollard, tree trimming. 20 simple tasks that can be done in 20 days. 
       6. Our requests last year were a bit too large hence they weren't completed. Let's let the cities meet with success.
