Noreen Evans, wants to save our parks remember she is the one that authored the bill AB120 to shut down dredging, please write her and let her know how much the state is losing in revenue for her actions
pile it on her folks

Dear Constituents,

The State has begun the process to privatize our parks!

The State Public Works Board and the California Department of Parks and Recreation want to solicit proposals from private organizations, including for–profits, to operate concessions (campgrounds, food services, etc.) at many of the state parks slated for closure. The proposal would allow for–profit and private organizations to operate concessions at eleven state parks–six in our district (Sugarloaf Ridge State Park, Russian Gulch State Park, Hendy Woods State Park, Westport Union Landing State Park, Austin Creek State Recreation Area and Standish–Hickey State Park) –with very low returns to the state. These agreements would undercut current negotiations with local non–profits to sign agreements to operate many of these parks – agreements that depend on the revenues that concessions would bring.

Not only does this proposal undermine local efforts to keep parks open, it’s questionable if low rents paid to the state will be sufficient to economically sustain our parks. I see these concession agreements as a major step toward privatization of our state parks.

There are two things you can do to stop this ill–conceived proposal:

1. Join me in speaking out against this plan at the State Public Works Board meeting at 10 am, Thursday, January 19 in Sacramento. The meeting will be held in the State Capitol building, Room 3191.

2. Answer this brief survey so that I can share your positions: Click Here for the Survey

[Hoser John]

Only thang I want to do is speak out at her funeral and say good dam riddance to the lying scum suckn' John

[russau]

AHMEN John!!!!!

[GrayCloud]

Hoser, I am truly shocked at you and Russau.
Not me, I cannot in good faith join the two of you on this one.
No Sir, not me.
You see I made a promise forty something years ago, that when I got out of the Army, I would never again stand in a line.

What kills me is they shut down all rivers to protect Salmon. last time I checked there were at least 3 major dams below me i.e no salmon in my area yet they shut down everything. Hmmm Some of these persons have no clue and should have no say so in some of the things they inact as they know not the reprecutions they will truely have meanwhile the working man is further shut down.

John, Unfortunately it is not really about the environment... It is about Control.

[Gramps43]

10:4 on that Graycloud it's all about controlling the masses. Here is a book "Totalitarianism: How the socialist faith is destroying America" that should explain the whole thing. Mr. Peach, the author, has spent many years researching for this book. He is not an academic he's an engineer by trade so he doesn't use high falute'n words and it will keep your attention and that's something for me, the hook up between my eyes and brain isn't the best.

You can get it from Barnes & Noble and an e-book for $10.00
