I simply learn that Clara Park, OPALCO’s legal professional, acknowledged that “Decatur Island residents are for the photo voltaic growth” ..that’s utterly false. Somebody is making a false narrative to assist their very own agenda.
Decatur Island residents are definitively opposed to this challenge.
It has been acknowledged repeatedly, loudly and with conviction.
There was no finish to the quantity of analysis, letters, articles, conferences, feedback and thorough exhaustive reality discovering in assist of the robust opposition from Decatur Island residents.
And I don’t see an finish to it. We’re pacing ourselves for a marathon, not a dash. If it involves folks laying down in entrance of bulldozers, chaining themselves to timber and customarily kicking up a really loud and public fuss… that’ll in all probability occur, if this challenge is accredited.
The one good factor is that (apart from just a few outliers) this has united the island like nothing else ever has. Persons are bonded and dedicated to the trigger. If vehicles begin rolling onto the island to tear down that forrest …protests will start, it’ll be ‘all fingers on deck’ with protesters and everybody supporting the protesters…we love a great pot luck, we’ve nothing else to do, and we now have numerous good cooks round right here…
we’re not more likely to throw within the towel anytime quickly, if ever.
