The most important thing is to be clear about what you want. Tell him exactly what you want and why it is necessary. Remember there's strength in numbers. You can organize a letter writing campaign and get many people to write letters to the mayor. You can also get everyone in the community to sign a petition. Hope I helped.

brainstorm !! think about what you want to haappen and what you want the writing to be like !! its all about the impact on the reader if you leave a good impression in the writing and state the facts and the advantages it just might happen .

I agree with Notso. You need a petition because the mayor wont just listen to two people. So get a petition for people to sign or if its easier go to www.petitiononline.com and get a petition online and then you can print it out after you think you have enough. go to churches, houses, friends, family, etc. etc. good luck.

Notso answered Sunday October 24 2004, 4:17 pm:
you can write a petition.

Basically state what you want to happen (ie We the undersigned believe that our town is in need of buses or taxis... or something of that effect ) and get a whole bunch of signatures of people in your town. You most likely aren't the only people who believe your town needs public transit.

MissKnowItAll answered Sunday October 24 2004, 4:09 pm:
Be persuasive and show the mayor how you really feel about the situation, you have to make the mayor believe that your suggestion is correct, don't forget to write formally and use some of these techniques that are sure to make him take your point of view in mind

Use statistics in your letter, do a survey of how many people would like transports in your area
Write quotes in your letter of what people have said about this idea
Always say posotive things about your idea
I hope you find this advice handy and I hope the mayor will allow buses etc to be used in your town

Hi Sweetie,
Hmm, well you can mention how this will icnrease employment opportunities... and bring more money to the city... And it would be a great idea to get some signatures of people who agree with your idea.
Hope I helped and I wish you luck! Blessed Be...

Well, just write him/her and say `In our town we don't have buses and mii parents can not drive me all the time so that means ii have to walk to school almost all the time, and it gets kind of far. So could yuu please supply our town with buses?` Just say something like that, and ii don't know if yuu have to walk or whatever but yah. Hope ii helped!

live2rock answered Sunday October 24 2004, 4:00 pm:
Well you could start a protest and get the local papers involved, that would be cool. If you're going to write a letter i would just express my opinions clearly and amicably as possible. Oh and run it by someone who's good with letters and literature before you send it.
