What Would You Improve in Novato in 2013?

If you could make a New Year's resolution for our city, what would it be?

More than 45 percent of Americans make a resolution every year, according to statisticbrain.com. Some people vow to live a healthier lifestyle, others promise to spend more time with family, and many say they will try to save money.

As millions of Americans make resolutions to improve their lives, what could we do right here in Novato to make it an even better place to live? Let's make a resolution to accomplish something together.

Maybe you're thinking about business development — the North Redwood Boulevard corridor, Hanna Ranch, the half-vacant Square shopping center.

Maybe you're thinking about ways to reduce crime — donating to the police dogs, monitoring a school campus or participating in a Neighborhood Watch program.  

Maybe you're thinking about humanity — keeping people clothed and warm, keeping people from being homeless, keeping people from needing to beg on street corners.

Those are just starter ideas. What is on your wish list? What is one thing you would improve for the community in 2013? Do you think it's achievable?
