There was a request at the community gathering last Saturday that we provide form letters. We feel it is important for these parties to hear from individuals, plus we can't speak for each of you. Consequently, we have compiled some information to assist you in writing your own letters:
In writing to Cavanagh we suggest that you address the concerns about the health and longevity of the Grove and that you impress the rarity of this old growth ecosystem. Please also include any personal reasons that you oppose them purchasing this land to develop.
