Thank you all for your persistence. We will prevail with everyone’s continued efforts.
Ken – Our local elected officials did just that – the San Diego City Council voted unanimously to oppose the Power Plant.
It is Cogentrix that is mushing ahead. The David & Goliath thing. They think that out of state money has clout- we need to continue our strong opposition at the state level with the CEC from all angles. Have any thoughts about other issues that would be good ammo???
It is “Game On” —
Fight the Good Fight
This is not a place to build a power plant. Why our are elected officials so blind to the tax payers request. Put your political wealth on hold and do what you were elected to do and support the people and stop this plant.
