The Charlotte Observer is embarking on an ambitious initiative to find out what stirs your curiosity.

With the help of our Service Journalism Desk reporters — Mary Ramsey, Evan Moore, Chyna Blackmon and myself, Kendrick Marshall, the editor — we will do just that through Know Your 704.

Together we will have an ear to the community, seeking to know what’s on your minds and helping our community live better, safer and more informed lives.

Whether you are a current Observer subscriber or new to us, we are here for you.
