Come to the City Council Meeting Tomorrow Night

The City Council will be discussing the question of sending a letter to the Board of Supervisors regarding the current Dutra proposal. (Because the park is outside of city limits, the decision to move forward with the current proposal is up to the Sonoma County Board of Supervisors.)

Please join the Friends of Shollenberger at this meeting! Come and let them know how you feel about this proposal. Ideally, your comments should be passionate, yet clear, with personal stories about use of the park, business location, impacts to health, etc.

Surely, the County can and must do better than this proposal, or it should be rejected."Fix it; prevent navigational hazards; or reject it!"

Please arrive at 8:30 PM. The agenda is full, and this is an estimated time that the Dutra asphalt project will be discussed. Complete meeting agenda can be found at: http://petaluma.granicus.com/AgendaViewer.php?view_id=3&event_id=28

Please spread the word! This is an open meeting and everyone's voice needs to be heard!

Meeting Details:
Monday, January 26th, 2009
8:30 PM

The plaintiffs, including all of the community plaintiff groups and individuals, and the City of Petaluma, were represented by Christina Caro, of Lozeau/Drury LLP.
