@SydneyCyclewaysFan @jedsetter @ukuku @ajsadauskas@lemmy.ml @jakecoppinger @cyclingnews @walk_sydney @sydneyurbanismnews Apparently “effectively engaging with the community” at Canada Bay council means sending people a pro-forma letter.
I decided to write them back…
"Dear Shankar, Andrew, Brendan, and all whom this may concern,
"One more thing.
"Just a little heads up about something.
"Next time, before you send everyone who responded to an inquiry with the same pro-forma letter, you might want to check that it hasn’t gone viral on social media.
"Because, when there’s several Mastodon threads full of people who received the same pro forma letter, it comes across as a little insincere to say you are ‘effectively engaging with the community as part of this process’.
