Great EMails our supporters have sent

Dear Assemblywoman Strom-Martin,      I live in Caspar. It's been a positive experience working with the folk here who are trying to preserve our town, especially the Caspar Headlands.      You've been very supportive, and I thank you.      I hope you'll continue to help by urging passage of the Mendocino Coastal resource allocation. This is a place of beauty, and we want to let all visitors enjoy the open space of the north coast.      Thank you. Susan Juhl

Dear Assembly Member Carole Migden, As my SF Supervisor you were wonderful in working for issues that mattered to the community. As Assembly Member I know you are carrying on the same work for the state of California. That is why I want you to know that the upcoming Mendocino Coastal resource allocation is important to me and to the people of California. The Caspar Headlands and riparian corridor, for example, represent one of the few undeveloped open spaces where visitors and residents alike can approach the ocean, but it is now for sale and at risk. With Caspar Beach, which is already being acquired, these headlands provide access, habitat for endangered coastal species, and a sense of wildness that defines our state's north coast. The community has come together and worked hard on these issues and I urge you to work to pass the funding to preserve these lands. Thank you for your help, Joe Watt

Dear Assemblywoman Denise Moreno Ducheny,      I am aware that the Mendocino County resource allocation for the purchase of coastal access for the public is coming up. This is an issue that is very important to me, and I just want to urge you to do what you can to pass the funding to preserve the lands included.      The Caspar Headlands and riparian corridor, Navarro Beach, Albion Headlands, Westport and Glass Beach all are beautiful open spaces that I feel should be preserved and kept accesible to all. Caspar Beach is already being acquired; the idea that this area not only could become "private" and closed to the public but also that future development could remove yet more space needed by local (not to mention endangered) wildlife is disturbing, to say the least.      It's very important to protect the headlands - they are a vital part of the coastal ecology and identity.      Again, I hope you will do all that you can to protect these areas. Thank you for your time and help,      Sincerely, Rebecca E Lafore

Dear Senator Chesbro:      Thank you for your continuing support.      As frequent visitors, we want to ask your support for the Mendocino coastal headlands and riparian corridors, especially for the Caspar Headlands. This undeveloped area is now for sale, and should be preserved as access and wildlife habitat and we urge you to work to pass the funding necessary to save it for us and the visiting public.      Sincerely, Robert W. & Elizabeth R. Potts

Dear Governor:      As the father of an elementary school teacher working in a very ethnically mixed community I wholeheartedly approve of your priorities directed towards education. But I hope you will agree that our environment also ranks high in importance.      I want you to know that the upcoming Mendocino Coastal resource allocation is important to me and to the people of California. The Caspar Headlands and riparian corridor, for example, represent one of the few undeveloped open spaces where visitors and residents alike can approach the ocean, but is now for sale and at risk. With Caspar Beach, which is already being acquired, these headlands provide access, habitat for endangered coastal species, and a sense of wildness that defines our state's north coast.      I urge you to lend your influence to pass the funding to preserve these lands.      Thank you for your help.
