OK
folks . . . People for Puget Sound are trying to pack out the Planning
Commission hearing next Wednesday. We need to put forward a strong effort
to make sure that Jefferson County’s shoreline property owners are out in
force.
The
link in their message takes you to a “blast email/fax” page where
their members can send a boiler-plated or personally edited message to the planning
commission. While their message is tilted toward Jefferson County, you
can bet that there will be a lot of Astroturf messages to the county from their
members all around the Sound and beyond.
Read
further and you will see that they are anticipating our presence, and making
assumptions as to our message.
Let’s
get everyone we can who actually lives here, especially those with shoreline
property, to be there on Wednesday. We also are going to need as much
written comment submitted to the county as possible. If you are a shoreline
owner, bring your neighbors. If you know a shoreline owner, make sure you let
them know what’s going on.
Please
participate in the process of making these policies. Don’t stop
with just speaking up at the hearing . . . your written comment is even more
important. If the parking lot is full when you arrive, find another place
to park nearby and come on in anyway!
Never
underestimate the importance of your voice! We need you now!
