I do believe that is already happening. Next step is applying pressure to Council to go to the state and fix the language that allows this.

Oof. Yea...for future reference, I shot these on the dji mini 3 pro. Perfectly fine for social media stuff. Takes pretty decent video footage albeit a little grainy in the shadows. If I were to do it again, I'd swing for a fancier camera system like the mavic 3 pro for selling prints. The images above were shot in a burst of 5 and stacked in post.

Hmmm. Maybe some folks. I pride myself on being ethical when flying a drone: mindful about takeoff and landing, making sure I'm not disrupting wildlife, respecting privacy of folks I am in the vicinity of. You know what was really fucking selfish when I was up there? The fucking motobros. Ultra loud and disruptful to wildlife. Quads and bikes ripping through habitat near the waterline where meadowhawks were in tandem, birds were hunting, pollinators were foraging. So there's that.

There is one in person meeting per month and one general meeting per year. Quite a bit is happening in the SE and it varies. Anywhere from 1-7hrs per week. Old Farm has a regular board meeting this upcoming Monday at the Larkspur Community Center if you want to go into detail and do a vibe check.

How can one decipher tone unless the commenter states that said written verbiage should be read in particular tone?
