If you look at my profile photo, you'll see a photo I took while hiking in the park. If this asphalt plant gets built, there will be a smokestack or two in the middle of that photo. Lovely, huh ? The plant and all it's disgusting smells and noise will not only impede the wildlife living in the park, but will be one of the first things you will see when driving north on Hwy 101 into the Sonoma Wine Country. Please follow this link to the Friends of Shollenberger Park website and follow the page to .click to vote on the Angus Couriers website. If you feel so inclined as to e-mail a .Sonoma County Supervisor or two, all the links are there. as well. http•//hosted verticalresponse cone/424841/b35619d320/I7165006.51/8077b1cd37/ Your interest will be so very much appreciated !

Thanks again to all ! RS Nora_S on Dec 4 _09 at 7:SOpm Do you have a local environmental group that can step up and file a lawsuit to stop it? Building an asphalt plant. that close to a wetland sounds. like.. a bad idea to me. K'Ttravel on Dec 4; 09`_a.t 8:OOpm I just voted. Good luck! Betsy_ on Dec._4, 09 a.t: 8:Ofipm You betcha I voted.and left a comment also. razzledazzle on I)ec 4 09 at 8:4Opm Nora S. -Yes, it is my understanding that the lawsuit(s) will begin if the Sonoma County Supervisors vote for it on Tuesday night. That's why it is also important to write to the County Supervisors as well as to vote. http://www. fodors.com/community/fodorite-lounge/help-save-a-park-and-the-gateway-to-s... 12/7/2009 Help ?

I .had heard about this on the news some time ago, but thought it had been denied and was a thing of the past. 'I'm sorry to hear that. it's up for a vote by the Board of Supervisors again. Sincerely hope`it fails. avalon on __®ec S, 09 -a..t ,4:45am you got my-vote Nora __S on ®ec 5, :09'_at 1030..a...m Wow---that is quite a list. I haven't spent much time in the Bay Area since I graduated from Berkeley (long ago), but it looks like every city in Sonoma County has come out against this project, in addition to the "usual suspects" (environmental groups). How could the county supervisors possibly vote to allow it to proceed? Are there people supporting the project in the name of`"economic development"? http://www. fodors. com/community/fodorite-lounge/help-save-a-park-and-the=gateway-to-s... 12/7/2009 Help !

I want this to be seen as nationwide and global situation becauseof"the visitors to our lovely Sonoma County - wine, agriculture, our rolling hills, the lovely Russian & Petaluma Rivers, the extraordinary Sonoma Coast and asphalt are such a bad combination ! Yes, Nora-There are :some of the supervisors who support it- Mike Kerns reps my district-he's on the economic development side. Efren Carillo is undecided so anyone who has a moment to write to him, or any of the sups. would be so very appreciated ! http://supcr_ysors, sonoma-county.org/ Thanks to you all ! !
