Citizens group ‘Stand by our Plan’ defeats Plum Creek

On March 1, the Alachua County Commission voted to deny Plum Creek’s plan to destroy wetlands in our strategic Ecosystem east of Newnans Lake and the rural quality of life of our citizens that live there.

We thank Commissioners Mike Byerly, Ken Cornell and Robert “Hutch” Hutchinson for voting to protect our rural way of life, our environment and the Comprehensive plan which protects both.

Plum Creek and its supporters are not happy about this and are trying to replace Mike Byerly on the County Commission and Eileen Roy on the School Board with Plum Creek task force members.  They are also after Eileen Roy because as a member of the planning commission she voted to recommend denial of the Plum Creek plan.

Please protect the seats of those who protect us. Re-elect Commissioners Mike Byerly, Robert “Hutch” Hutchinson and School Board Member Eileen Roy.
