Urgent Public Notice: Davenport, California Being Encroached Upon by Corporate Interests!

in steemit •  7 years ago 

Update: July 16th 2017, DNCA has reported that work for the water pipes has been completed July 7th. But the bill of $220K has not been paid. They expect to charge Cemex but I do not think they will pay for the repairs or they would have done so already. The good news is Davenport is now being supplied by San Vicente Creek again, but their water bills are still high and the county plans to increase their bills further to pay for the counties emergency repairs. Lets raise enough money to pay the bill, then I will work with the local water providers to lower the water bills to Davenport locals who have been severally taxed for their use, to the point of not watering local trees and backyards. Further I discovered from talking with locals that even though national monument status has been awarded locally residents are concerned that there needs to be more environmental studies done before any changes should be done in the local area, even though trail heads are already being blazed. Further more evidence needs to be collected on the long term environmental impact the Cemex plant has had on local ecology and locals over the past 100 years before they tear it all down and build a parking lot. I feel locals may qualify for restitution via environmental pollution which I have read has been established by the environmental groups who bought up the Cemex acreages. This is a case of big business squeezing out the little guys for more profits under the guise of progress and I for one will not have it!
