Ian is gone, but the blog remains

Of the many efforts put forth by former Village Manager Ian Coyle, one of the most novel and perhaps even innovative was his village manager blog. The blog—the most popular contracted form of “Web log”—came into its own as a powerful way to communicate during Ian's tenure with Brockport. Why? Well, one reason may be that unlike a village, a blog is easy to administer. Another is that a blog’s cost is negligible. However, arguably the greatest strength of a blog is its immediacy: I can share my thoughts in the wink of an eye. To an interested public, I think that’s worth something.

So here I am, posting what I hope will be the first of many messages about my work as a member of the Brockport Village Board of Trustees. Stay tuned…
