Another valuable article!
Always great to hear what other committed and active Steemians are up to!
As for SteemCity I would like to say that I am ALL about community and have had great success with it. I founded The Garden of Eden www.intothegardenofeden.com of which is operating at the lowest carbon footprint of any organization I am aware of anywhere. Community truly has the potential for upgraded enjoyment and overall thrival for living!
Yet it can be very complicated and difficult as well. The most difficult aspect is social dynamics. Building sustainable food production and even buildings are easy once you have a plan. Yet social dynamics are ever changing and quite volatile. A successful community either requires a truly noble leader or a very well thought out "constitution" to hold everything together. Write and signed agreements from everyone involved is the best advise I can give, as people CHANGE. Contracts hold accountability to CLEAR agreements.
I am about to launch the building of my next bigger and better community after MTV releases their show on The Garden of Eden the end of this year.
I would be happy to either potentially be involved on site or atleast provide consulting for the success of this awesome idea!
Blessings~*~
