Letter to the County Commissioners
Hello neighbors!
I have mailed the above letter to each commissioner urging them to rethink their choices regarding MetraPark.
I would urge you to contact the commissioners too, if them volunteering our community space (without prior public comment) grinds your gears even just a little.
My letter touches only on the points which I would hope they can resonate with. (I hold no delusions about my ability to change their deeply MAGA hearts.) But even republicans should be angry about the economic and community impacts of repurposing MetraPark to become a detainment camp.
If you’re in support of this, or on the fence, please consider what this will take away from our community. Also consider if you support government representation that makes sweeping choices with our community assets without consulting the community they serve.
If you want to send a letter yourself, you can use mine as a starting point. Add your own perspective to the conversation. They need to hear our voices.
Here’s a link to the Google Doc if you’d like to copy/paste.
