For example: ideas to increase RCL membership.

4. Pros and Cons of Development of commercial businesses in Rockport. How does RCL help? Should our zoning bylaws restrict the conversion of businesses to residential in some areas of town?

5. Discuss Schools in Rockport. What support do they need. Are they sustainable long term? What is status of the teaching and support staff contract? Is this good for Public to know in light of the recent Gloucester strike. What are both sides of the issues. How can RCL help?
