Hi there! I’m working to bring together a group of community members dedicated to protecting our wetlands from any future development. While we hope for a positive outcome from the Oregon Shores Conservation Coalition’s appeal of the Nedonna Wave PUD to LUBA, it’s important that we prepare for any scenario.
Wetlands are highly productive and biologically diverse systems that enhance water quality, control erosion, maintain stream flows, sequester carbon, and provide a home to many species of fish and wildlife. Protecting these special areas is essential!
There are many ideas on how we can organize as a community, including: staying informed and keeping up-to-date on developments, having ongoing conversations with neighbors and family members, building and maintaining a contact and mailing list, attending relevant city council meetings, working to get media coverage and attention on this issue, creating engaging graphics, videos, and other visuals to spread the word, producing flyers and yard signs to increase awareness, monitoring the site and any potential developer actions, looking into legal representation to ensure we have the support we need.
If you have any suggestions, and/or are interested in joining this group, please email me at lyndsey.nccwp@gmail.com.
Thank you!
