DLTA to protest outside courthouse
And other upcoming events
It’s gearing up to be a busy few days.
Meet DLTA at the farmers’ market
The organization against reopening Towne Road for the people who have funded it (and will continue to fund it) wants to meet you at the Farmers Market in Sequim this Saturday. Dungeness Levee Trail Advocates will be there from 9 - 2.
Meet Brandi Kruse Saturday night
Attend Monday’s protest to convert a taxpayer-funded road into a private driveway and trail
DLTA has hinted that the protest may be covered by a “major” news station.
OPEN Towne Rd. Sequim has lots of trails. Walk along river SW. Human safety first. Medical, Fire,
Are the DLTA people looking for their 15 minutes of fame?
IF a major news organization covers the protest, I certainly hope they have enough journalistic integrity to fairly report on the full story and the full history of this issue.
You know:
1) Recognize that a local organization (DLTA) has enlisted outsiders to attempt to influence/bully our local government (I wonder how they'd feel about us calling the shots in Seattle?)
2) Higher insurance rates for those north of the closure
3) Safety / emergency vehicle access for everyone
4) If it remains closed it's the use of a tax-payer funded vehicular road accessed as a road by a handful of privileged people
5) The mitigation of the 6PPD-q on this section of the road to help save salmon but the 6PPD-q is NOT mitigated on the farm with the wetlands and creek that is owned and "farmed" by the family that is leading the protest
6) Many people are spending more time commuting because the road is closed so it's more than an inconvenience. It's costly to some of us.
7) It was never supposed to be closed
8) change.org petitions aren't real. (duh)
And so much more.
If the road somehow does not re-open to all of us, I want my tax money back and I want the county to subsidize the insurance rates for those of us that live north of the blockage.
