SAMPLE EMAIL STATEMENT
Dear City Council,
Thank you Erie City Council for listening! Despite PennDOT’s explanations, and despite the praise for the Bayfront roadway expansion plan (by Hotel owners and the leaders of Gannon, UPMC Hamot, Erie Insurance, the Port Authority, Convention Center and now by Charles Buki) the need for a full NEPA Environmental Assessment remains.
Please honor the WILL OF THE PEOPLE and the experts (from PennFuture, Sierra Club, Audubon, Our Water, Our Air Our Rights, SONS of Lake Erie, Connect Urban Erie, Bike Erie, Kind Veg, CIVITAS, the NAACP and others) by protecting our Bayfront with as full NEPA Environmental Assessment. Please do not allow PennDOT to remove the railroad tracks and begin their highway project until after a full NEPA Environmental Assessment is completed.
Don’t give up our bayfront!
