Steal These Documents

Need to write a letter?  Or build a list?  Or write some testimony?  Here’s a pile of documents people have written as letters or testimony about sand mining.

Feel free to steal anything you find.  Please take these ideas and bring them up at public meetings.  Take pieces and put them in letters to Board members.  Send them to your town and city representatives.  Hand them to local Chamber of Commerce members.  Talk about them over coffee.

Most are saved in a few different formats – hopefully one of them will work for you.   Click on the name of the topic to see that document.
