Save The Farmland!

Action Alert! Please help us save farmland!

Allowing Sumner to expand its Urban Growth Area is a bad idea. It was denied by staff and voted down by the Pierce County Planning Commission. Sumner has a lot of political pull and is asking Council to bring it back for a council vote, basically going around the steps needed to make sure growth happens in accordance with county policies/regulations and state law. Please attend these meetings and ask the council (in your own words) to keep Pierce County farmland intact. No more pavement on our local farmland. Enough is enough!

Tuesday, October 18, 2011 at 3:00 p.m. (Full Council Hearing)
  Hearing will be held at the
County - City Building, Room 1045, 930 Tacoma Ave S, WA
