Dear Mendocino County Board of Supervisors,


I oppose approval of the currently proposed asphalt plant project at Harris Quarry. 
Add a chosen topic here,
in your own wording, please. 
Relevant questions for the planning department are especially useful

A smarter project, that is a benefit for all, is possible. The old 2012 project is outdated, oversized, poorly and dangerously sited with over a 100 mitigations, and is incongruous with surrounding uses. We feel a win-win can be achieved, but not with this current proposal.   
The public deserves to have the best analysis of our current situation taken into full account. As stated in the mission statement for the County Planning and Building Department, we, the public request “precise, up-to-date and innovative advice and technical expertise.” We feel that this requires more than just an acceptance of the applicant’s analysis. The public requests a cost benefit analysis that takes into account the full 30-year project impacts to the public. There are many Significant New Considerations that must be taken into full account in order to reach an appropriate and compatible decision which protects the public and meets County needs.

Sincerely,
your name
city
